Half-Life 2/ Half-Life 2: Episode One/ Half-Life 2: Episode Two:

In the main Half-Life 2 series, this weapon is usually best utilized in close to medium ranged firefights. Ammo is frequent in HL2/EP1, as it is the weapon of choice for CP units and soldiers. In EP2, ammo is less frequent as the player should encounter much less combine forces, however rebel establishments like white forest should have bountiful supplies of ammo. In all games, close combat areas should put a balanced emphasis on Shotgun and SMG usage.

Half-Life 2: Deathmatch:

^[Todo]

Entropy : Zero/ Entropy : Zero 2:

In the Entropy : Zero series, this weapon has been given a significant increase to both damage and recoil, giving a heavier emphasis on close-range fights. Ammo is somewhat frequent, as most rebels use the SMG. The player should have a fair amount of SMG ammunition at all times.
