Half-Life 2 - Years later you take control of Gordon Freeman in a new story.

Half-Life: Blue-Shift - You play as a security guard during the events of the original game.

Half-Life - You take control of Gordon Freeman in the Black Mesa facility.

This is assuming you want to follow the Half Life story from start to finish. As already pointed out, the most logical order is to play the games by their initial release dates.

If you’re a part of the small collective of people who haven’t yet played Half-Life or you haven’t had a chance to finish all of the expansions, now is your opportunity to get to it. (According to Valve, Half-Life: Alyx takes place before the events of Half-Life 2.) Valve’s Half-Life 2: Lost Coast, its tech demo for HDR lightning, isn’t included in this promotion. Also available for free is Half-Life 2 and its two episodic expansions. This promotion includes the original Half-Life (the Source version of the game with added physics to make it feel more modern to play, not the beautiful remaster Black Mesa) and its expansions, Half-Life: Blue Shift and Half-Life: Opposing Force. Every game is compatible with Windows, Linux, and macOS (though all of these games are 32-bit apps, which means they don’t work on macOS 10.15 Catalina). This is basically a two-month-long trial you won’t get to keep these games. For the next two months, each of the Half-Life games will be free to play on Steam. Half-Life: Alyx will launch in March 2020 for PC-based VR headsets, but right now, Valve is giving gamers the opportunity to catch up on (almost) everything Half-Life-related at no expense.
