It was probably the HL storyline just with 2 people, sven co-op style.

It wasn't... Remember the 2 empty spots beside Gordie's HEV suit? That's where the main characters's suits in Delay were. You played 2 women, Gina and some other lady. But basically the same as HL. Just different tasks and such, an interesting feature was that you needed to co-operate to complete the levels. Not just monster-wise, but there were doors which buttons' needed to be kept pushed, vents which was too high for ordenairy jumping so you needed to stand on your buddy's back and such...

^^ Yeah, but what was the story like? I heard that those two women actually prepared the sample that Gordon shoved into the machine. Thus they had a part in the disaster as well. Was the G-man in decay? I really wish I played this back in the day, now I feel left out on a piece of the HL mythology.

It wasn't the orignial story with two people added, and it was actually pretty fun.
You play as the Holographic training woman, and her associate.
The game starts off with you going into the room underneath the test chamber to power up the machine and send up the test sample.
The accident happens, and from there you have to travel through the base and try to repair the damage.
The main issue I have with it is that it doesn't use the 'everything is a single level' thing from the other HLs, but that's mostly so that you and you friends won't have to sit there for five hours while you complete everything.
So, they divided it into missions, and just skipped over parts where there was no action.
Someone was trying to write a history of the entire event, a while back, so I wrote a more detailed copy there. I can't find it now though.

i played this with a mate- its pretty fun byt on a small screen (split) with shit graphics it can get very tedios and depressing. I preffered the deathmatch option, i owned my mate every time 
a PC version would own, maybe they could make a conversion or something? it would be a nice addition to steam, anyway

Yeah, I'd kill for a source-enhanced online co-op version.
It's well worth paying for tough, if you can find it cheap. The PS2 version had a whole lot of graphical fixes, and it explains a lot of the plot.

If he turned it into a co-op mod, that would be great. Probably legal issues though, since Decay is the main reason to buy the PS2 version.

I remember hireing this out once, me and a mate had a go at Decay. Walked around a bit, got into HEV, talked to some scientist in a wheelchair, then wheeled the sample into the lift and watched it go up. After the cascade we both died on the first headcrab
It's freakin impossible to aim the crowbar!!!
And I think we'd had a few at the time ^_^

in the final mission
(spoiler)
you are in a place were are a rift and you hav to close it and defen it from aliens
when you closed it (I dont know if you close it or turn off...)
you 2 see black and see FREEMAN who looks jumping out of a teleporter(that litle galaxies who you use to teleport)after that you 2 are rescued by a scientific in wheelchair who say that something like "we made it,thank you"(we save the world)
I dont know if all they die also I dont know if they really hav closed the passage between Xen and earht
so this give us new mistery about HL2
also play HL in ps2 is easy, in the begining hard but you when you play much if easy like play whit mouse and keyboard
