Holy crap it's been done, epic win, awesome. The Purchase Brothers have made a short film titled, "Escape from City 17" based on Half-Life 2 and it's live action awesomeness, being a total Half-Life 2 fan, this is win of the week. Epic.
That is the sickest thing I've seen in a long time. It'd be cool as heck to have these kind of short films on the same disc as the games. This made me want to go back to finish the game on it's highest difficulty, SWEET.
That was pretty impressive for $500.00. That short film sequence trumps some of the garbage coming out of hollywood lately.
I could easily see this getting picked up by the Sci-Fi network and be the next big television series. Like Battlestar Galactica. hell, i might start watching TV again if this was on...
Actually, scratch that last idea of TV, leave it on the net, this way there isn't anyone (networks) screwing it up...
Really reminds me of Neil Blomkamps Independant stuff. Style wise and how its shot. Anyone else happy to hear that him and peter jackson are making a feature length version of alive in joburg instead of a halo movie?
Anyone who doesnt know check out alive in joburg and you'll see waht I mean. (the movie its been made into is called district 9)
Anyway this was AWESOME! I really liked it alot. Definitely want to see more of this!
Wow, thats damn impressive for a short film, i wonder what kind of budget went into that, the combine costumes, obviously the citadel is CG probably right from HL2 but it looks damn good for an independent film.
congratulation to these guys this video was amazin my god they made me go to gamestop and buy the whole game from the very half life 1 to the orange box and play them all again on my ps3 one of the best games of all times keep on with the good work dudes and give us the whole movie please congratulation again
It would be great if they made a feature film in the Half-Life 2 world but leaving Gordon freeman out would be best. refer to him see security camera footage of him aslong as he isn't in a situation to be hear talking. I think the struggle of the rebels and trying to escape the combine/the city is a great idea.
I see more of these type of shortfilms coming out..

It's the best independent live action videogame adaptation I've seen so far!
