This new batch of screenshots really give the first glimpse into the gameplay of Black Mesa and be sure to keep an eye on them as they have more in store for us in the near future. In other words, this is the start of Black Mesa: Source's hype machine, so get ready everyone."

Black Mesa: Source announced that they are releasing a retail version of the game that supporters can purchase, though casual players still have access to the free version. Mr.WaWa talks about Half-Life and discusses briefly the game and mod's development over the years. He's gonna buy the crap out of it. Will you?

To that end, here's a list of some of the most outstanding F2P games out there, along with reasons why you can save some serious money over the coming months."
I know I miss that so much it sucks when characters and costumes are DLC :(
F2P games are starting to realise that. Everything can be unlocked in Planetside 2, for example.
Remember that these games are free, but have to make money somehow. A couple of quid here and there is probably not a big ask for something you'll play for 20 hours +.
That said, I still hate DLC that takes characters and stuff out in full-priced games. Either it's freemium or premium, you shouldn't have both.
Not to mention, Planetside 2's F2P model is pretty well implemeneted in that paying players have no strict advantage over players that dont.
Looks Awesome
I've given up waiting for this. It's been years and years.. It reminds me that HL3 really is going to never happen in my lifetime. VALVE TIME!!!!!!!!
!
pretty good. heard this was free or am i wrong?
It's vaporware. They said it would be released like back in 2008 or something.
I don't really care anymore about the long delayed project
