 Combine (Half-Life 2) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Combine's method of teleportation, as limited as it is, still requires a large amount of power and huge machinery to perform, as seen at the end of the game, where Doctor Breen was attempting to escape from the Citadel using a Combine teleporter.
Following the Nihilanth's demise, the Combine was able to use the portal storm that was occurring at the time to continue on to Earth, where it launched a massive invasion that culminated in the Seven Hour War.
The Combine Empire was engaged in a war with the Nihilanth's race, and, through means unknown, managed to force them out of their original homeland.

 Four Fat Chicks -- Half-Life 2 Review
The long-awaited Half-Life 2 represents the pinnacle of great action shooters because it strictly adheres to the one rule that makes an FPS great, the one rule that so many developers ignore, or break due to ineptitude and then conceal behind a shroud of tacked-on complexity: in a first person shooter, level design is everything.
Half-Life 2 has gotten more unctuous, fawning press, more prostrate, worshipful liner quotes, more slobbering adulation than any game in history, and in most cases, it's gotten it from journalists who haven't yet played the full game or who have raced through it with a Valve stoolie lurking over their shoulder.
Half-Life 2 had the opportunity to be one of the most stirring narrative statements about techno-despotism ever, and the designers blew it.

In Half-Life 2, players once again take the role of the crowbar-wielding MIT-trained scientist Gordon Freeman, who had been left in limbo by his mysterious employer, the G-Man, following the events in Half-Life.

The other is that Valve wanted to ensure that players discovered the story and action of Half-Life 2 without having the experience spoiled by constant media coverage of gameplay and plot points.
The Combine soldiers (those odd-looking figures with the "full cranial gas masks") seemed much more aggressive once you were behind the keyboard instead of passively watching video.
There really wasn't any new footage or levels shown; in fact, this was the same demo shown to the judges at E3, and essentially the same one that Tal did a hands-on feature with in May. However, the largest draw was that gamers could get their first crack at the controls.

As Lombardi tells us, Half-Life 2 starts a "significant number of years" after the original events at the Black Mesa Research Facility, and it's clear that the world has been significantly changed.
As games go, there was no bigger story in 2003 than Half-Life 2.

Because of its superior electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion and other desirable combinations of physical and chemical properties, gold also emerged in the late 20th century as an essential industrial metal.
Gold has been used as a symbol for purity, value, royalty, and particularly roles that combine these properties (see gold album).

 Computer Gaming World: Half-Life 2
If Half-Life 2 does not quite reach the transcendence of the first game, it is still a marvel of design, still one of the best games of 2004, and still ample proof that Valve operates at a higher creative level than most everyone else in this business.
Still, it’s clear with Half-Life 2 that Valve’s artistry is unmatched in this industry—at least as far as shooters are concerned—and, like all great artists, it makes its ambitious undertaking feel like it was the easiest, most natural thing in the world.
