I got this from a very reliable source, you can take it or leave it the choice is yours...
This is what will be in Half-Life 2 game manuals under the "Story" section and will appear on the back of retail boxes:
In the dusty Nevada desert there used to exist a top-secret scientific research facility, code-named Black Mesa, owned by the massive Lamda Corporation, and heavily financed by the U.S. government. It was there that a highly guarded government experiment led by scientist Gordon Freeman went extremely wrong: it opened a gateway for hostile alien beings to enter Earth.
Secret government "clean up" and "cover-up" marine forces attempted to "silence" everyone involved except Dr. Freeman and several others, who's lives ended up being spared thanks to the mysterious enigma the "G-Man" -- the man who hired Gordon Freeman and his team.
Six years have passed since the disaster at the Black Mesa Research Facility. Gordon and his team work for another branch of the Lamda Corporation on a small island off the east coast of the United States.
As Gordon and his team worked one morning, the "G-Man" appeared from the shadows. He pulled Gordon aside and explained the portal his team accidently opened six years ago is starting to open again--but this time on the exact other side of the earth from the original portal, inside of a small town in Europe, a place called City 17...
Now Dr. Freeman and the remaining scientists from Black Mesa must travel to the city that could be the epicenter of a massive alien invasion.
They must race against the clock as it's only a matter of time before City 17 is crawling with international special army forces to exterminate every walking entity.
And it's Dr. Freeman who may be the only one who holds the key to locking the portals once and for all....
