That sucks because the original is one of the best games ever.Cool, I've held off playing the original because the graphics and sound track are so dated. Black Mesa took so long to be finished I was losing hope of ever playing the game.
It's a free mod. All you need is HL2 (possibly the episodes, I'm not positive.)Ok whoa, I'm out of the loop. I am so buying this. First I've heard of it.
Haha! Shows my ignorance! I am SO downloading this!It's a free mod. All you need is HL2 (possibly the episodes, I'm not positive.)
Yeah you are... especially because it's been the DNF of mods as it was announced pretty much as soon as HL2 came out. We've talked about it a lot :\Haha! Shows my ignorance! I am SO downloading this!
Hearing about someone who's never played Half Life is always kind of like meeting someone whose never seen Star Wars; it's shocking.Cool, I've held off playing the original because the graphics and sound track are so dated.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19463712The large chunk of Half-Life that is finished lets players guide hero Gordon Freeman to a section of the original gameplay known as Lamda Core. Finishing this first chunk should take players between eight to 10 hours.
The final section yet to be finished takes place in the alien Xen dimension. An expanded Xen section would be released at an unnamed date in the future, said the team.
There's a lot of games from the 90s that just never interested me because the graphics were just so poor. I could tolerate it for some games like Doom and Star Wars Rogue Squadron because the artwork was good, but even then I spent the entire time playing them wishing the graphics were dramatically better. These days you hear quite a few developers saying graphics have finally gotten good enough they aren't a major concern and I have to agree. If anything it seems modern games have better graphics than I need, but the gameplay dynamics often suck as if developers have overcompensated for the problem.Hearing about someone who's never played Half Life is always kind of like meeting someone whose never seen Star Wars; it's shocking.
Easily one of the most influential, and best, FPS of all-time, hands down.
Only people who are blinded by nostalgia think that.That sucks because the original is one of the best games ever.
Eh, for the time it was very good. Replaying it now you definitely lose something but mainly because so many games have expanded on what HL did at the time.Only people who are blinded by nostalgia think that.
Considering how long it took them to do this and it's STILL not finished, I'd say no.Does anyone know if Opposing Force, Blue-Shift or Decay has or is getting a Source remake too?
