Half Life 2 (2004) - Gameplay Beginning - Introduction to the Game
After the alien invasion at the Black Mesa Research Facility, the Combine invaded and subjugated Earth. Approximately twenty years after being placed in stasis, Gordon Freeman is awoken by the G-Man (Michael Shapiro), who cryptically informs Freeman that "his time has come again" before inserting him on a train bound for City 17, the headquarters of the Combine. Helped by undercover Resistance member Barney Calhoun (Michael Shapiro), Freeman attempts to reach the laboratory of Isaac Kleiner (Harry S. Robins) before being arrested by Combine forces. He is rescued by Alyx Vance (Merle Dandridge), who takes him to Kleiner's lab. After Kleiner unsuccessfully attempts to teleport Freeman to the main Resistance base at Black Mesa East, Freeman is forced to progress there via the city's canal system, making use of an airboat.
Arriving at Black Mesa East, Freeman is reunited with Eli Vance (Robert Guillaume) and meets Judith Mossman (Michelle Forbes). Alyx introduces Freeman to her pet robot Dog and gives him a gravity gun. Black Mesa East is suddenly attacked by Combine forces, who capture Eli and Mossman; Freeman is forced to escape via the zombie-infested town of Ravenholm, aided by its lone inhabitant, Father Grigori (Jim French). Escaping the town, Freeman reaches a Resistance outpost, which provides him with a dune buggy. Freeman uses the buggy to traverse Highway 17 to reach the Combine prison of Nova Prospekt, where Eli and Mossman are held. He breaks into the prison and reunites with Alyx, locating Eli and discovering that Mossman is a Combine informant. Before they can stop her, Mossman teleports herself and Eli to the Combine's main base, the Citadel. The teleporter explodes moments after Gordon and Alyx use it to escape Nova Prospekt.
Returning to Kleiner's lab, Freeman and Alyx learn that the teleporter malfunctioned and a week has passed, during which the Resistance has launched a full-scale rebellion against the Combine. Aided by Calhoun and Dog, Freeman fights his way inside the Citadel. Making his way to the top, Freeman is captured and taken in a transport pod to the office of human collaborator Wallace Breen (Robert Culp), where he and Mossman are waiting with Eli and Alyx as captives. Breen reveals that he intends to use his captives as bargaining chips for negotiations with the Combine, contrary to what he told Mossman.[2] Angered, Mossman frees the three captives before Breen can teleport them off-world. Breen attempts to escape using a teleporter, but Freeman destroys the Citadel's reactor using the gravity gun, killing him. Just as the reactor explodes, the G-Man reappears and freezes time, praising Freeman's actions and placing him back into stasis.
