Black Mesa mod released: Download the Half-Life remake after 8 years of development
The Black Mesa mod, which recreates the original Half-Life in the Source Engine, has finally been released – and you can now download it after eight years of development by its huge team.
(Black Mesa, Black Mesa: Source, PC)
I still never played the Half-Life games...Even when they were 75% off. Probably because there are so many different versions of them (seriously, which ones should I be playing?). I'll still try this out though.
There's actually 2 full games, 2 spin-offs and 2 expansions.
Half life Half life: Blue shift (Barney the security guard story from half life 2) Half life: oppose force (the story of the marines) Half life 2 Half life 2: episode 1 Half life 2: episode 2
If you have a DC you can play half life 1 and blueshift on one disc (like I did) Or half life on the ps2 which also comes with those two chicks story (like I also did) Then the orange box which comes with all the half life 2 (like I did)
Well I have to admit I wasn´t always a Half-life fan... For me it was no different than Doom or Quake at that time... hell I had more fun playing Duke nukem 3d
When the Orange Box came out I decided to give it a try since I had already played Portal & already knew about the Cinematic Mod (7.0 at that time)... I loved it!
Now I couldn´t do the same with HL1... Despite I already knew this was the game that started all, I just couldn´t go back the 90´s. I saw the videos I and told myself, there´s no way I can play that. Then Black Mesa surfaced more as a "what if" project rather than a real posibility. Now is here!!!
Our Modding community is amazing and We don't pay for 8 year old remakes.
i will Grab this on steam when its out on there as ill be playing on modded 8v8 Left4Dead2 servers all weekend.
well done,they did great
Start with Half Life 1, then Half Life 2, then the two expansions for two.
There is also a deathmatch which doesn't have a whole lot to with the games at all.
Then there is the Lost Coast which is basically a tech demo.
