“You are Gordon Freeman and you get a call from your friend, the scientist Kazus. He workes at the reception of the Black Mesa Explosive Centre, somewhere in the mountains in South America. He says something’s wrong, then you hear some shots and you hear Kazus screaming. You decide to take a look. When you arrive at the reception room, you see Kazus’ corpse. When you step out, you see only one thing: BLOOD AND BONES….. Who did this? You’ll have to find out and you decide to go to the Black Mesa Explosive Centre.”

Poll Question 227 – Did Black Mesa steal the gravity gun from Aperture Science?

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

I really enjoyed the Lab Rat Comic and highly recommend it. As you can see from the image on the left, there’s the gravity gun on the table and there are other items that we associate with BM scattered around the comic.

It raises the question of who had it first BM or AS? I like the way Valve have got those two against each other.

Anyway, did Black Mesa steal the gravity gun from Aperture Science?

And let’s take this opportunity to chat about the BM/AS connections.

Optimum Fear

“Three years ago, my newly founded work associates and I started work on a portal experiment that went horribly wrong, due to “unforeseen circumstances”. Between our world and Xen, a horrifically violent alien world, a large rift in the fabric of space and time was formed. This allowed all manner of violent species to come, uninterrupted, through the portal and vanquish the Earth. They caused the apocalypse as we now know it.”

Content Statistics

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

I am pleased to announce the availability of a new project. It’s called Content Statistics. It lists almost every statistic related to the content of the site. It doesn’t display any traffic to the site, just the content.

I would like to thank Adam Glaysher for all his hard work in getting it to work with my demands and my server.

It is updated manually and approximately every week.

I consider it 90% finished – we just need to get the comment totals working properly and add the Recommendation Images per timeframe. There are also a few tweaks to the design that I will make when I have time.

After that, we will slowly add new stats as I think of them. However, if there is any stat you think we are missing, please let me know.

It can be accessed via the Projects menu at the top of the page.

This post is temporary and will be deleted in amonth, please link to the page itself not this post.

Back to Xen

for Half-Life

Pretty much the standard mod premise: You are Gordon Freeman and you need to do what you do best: Keep moving forward, killing pretty much everything in your path.

The mod finishes when you read the text that says “The End”.
