A fan remake of the original Half-Life game using the updated Source engine, with extra content.

I'd just figured that as I looked at the soundtrack and recognised the stage names.

I've only had the Xbox versions, HL2, Episode 1 and Episode 2, but I did watch through a longplay on HL1 to get a feel for the start of the story.

Roughly 5-6 hours!

There are videos to look at on the OPs link where it says Youtube if you haven't seen it in action.

I hate stating the obvious sometimes but it seems the obvious often gets missed on here. smile

One of my friends will remember me saying to him when the original half life came out 'the graphics are unbelievable. It's actually like real life!'

I stand by it hehe

I missed the whole Half Life thing. I remember at the time being more into RTS games. nerd

Is it more a single player game or MP? I quite enjoyed the BF3 and Medal of duty what not but they are MP games in my eyes.

I order my steak based on size over cut. Just say'n. smile

Sweet mary that looks good! I was obsessed with this game back in the day. I'm going to have to buy a new PC just to be able to play it though!
