Valve has (a-huh-huh) let off some new screens for Half Life 2: Episode 2, and SPOnG has the goods below.

We're mightily looking forward to experiencing the great outdoors from the comfort of our living rooms thanks to Episode 2. We're tired of running down dingy corridors, gun in hand, just so we can poke around even dingier rooms. It's not good for the soul. A couple of our friends and family members have muttered some kind of gibberish about leaving the house and hiking, but after we gave them a firm hammering on Warhawk they soon put a stop to that nonsense.

SPOnG recently sat down for a chat with Valve's director of marketing, Doug Lombardi. You can read the full interview here. When you're done you can find more on Half Life 2: Episode 2 on SPOnG's dedicated game page.
