Best of Alyx and FakeFactory´s Cinematic Mod

Some of the best screenshots of Alyx and FakeFactory´s Cinematic Mod (Half-Life 2).

MagicAccent5640d ago (Edited 5640d ago )

I've always liked the fakefactory mod.
With the exeption of Alyx, because she just looks like a taiwanese prostitute, imo the antithesis of Alyx's character..

zagibu5640d ago

Yeah, Adriana Lima is hot, but I don't want to have her replace Alyx.

thereapersson5640d ago

Nowhere near as good-looking as the original model. Sure, it might looks "better", but it doesn't look better. (if you know what I mean)

xer05640d ago

Nice details BUT...

Why does she look white, when she's clearly of mixed race?
Ellie is black after all.

Connoro5640d ago

Yeah, I'm gonna have to agree with the majority here, this Alyx looks awful. Sure, they switched the model to that of a "more attractive" woman, but in doing so they've lost Alyx's entire appeal, and while I feel uncomfortable mentioning it, xer0 is correct, Eli is not Caucasian, so why is Alyx so white?

Ashriel5640d ago

Uhm I think I know why Alyx was made like that, it's called "cinematic mod" and she looks like a sexy whore character from any movie.

latest beta release 10.10 contains iron sights.

As far as I played it's a welcome addition, changes gameplay and that's cool after that long.

one of my own little video showing IS in CM10.10 http://www.xfire.com/video/...

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Levii_9235d ago

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

LG_Fox_Brazil34d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb34d ago (Edited 34d ago )

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

One of my biggest art heroes. His work and vision were truly one of a kind, and he’s been a huge inspiration to my own work. Such a heartbreaking loss.

Deeeeznuuuts116d ago

Remember seeing Dishonored for the first time when it released, fell in love with the art style straight away, so striking! And because of it, still holds up and will for years to come, RIP Viktor

JEECE116d ago

Yep I remember seeing some of the earliest concept art for Dishonored and hearing that the art director of Half-Life 2 was working on it and being excited.

And you are absolutely right, each of those games (HL2 and Dishonored) has a distinct art style that stands the test of time.

Relientk77116d ago

So sad to hear this. I absolutely love the Dishonored series and love the world and art style. It looks great and unique. I'm still hoping for a Dishonored 3

rokos116d ago

RIP Viktor love your work

Ethereal116d ago

Damn... Dishonored has such amazing art. RIP.
