"it will be released without the final alien world Xen portion of the original game"



hated the Xen levels.

[Digger]

WooHoo . . . Except it wont be complete! I forget how far into it Lambda Core is.

Aah ok, so the Xen levels will follow at some point.

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

Half Life re-engineered to run on Half Life 2 tech.

[TheEnd]

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.

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

[Digger]

I wont ever forget my cackle of joy When I got minced by a grenade on the very first encounter with them pesky marines whilst listening to their radio chatter!

[D1ngd0ng]

Just need a HL2 ep3 Christmas 2012 release to make the year complete now.

Ironically I'd already booked this day off work.

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

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.

[S3_Graham]

its both. Single player is brilliant, multiplayer is good.

Please god let them have the level with the Nuke!!

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!
