No Chance

for Half-Life

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

Starting in a stairway and corridor, you just have to slowly work your way through the building.

Beware though, alien enemies are constantly appearing and making you life difficult and those army grunts aren’t too friendly either!

Can you reach the outside?

CloneVille Idea

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

SPOILER ALERT: As I was playing TWHL Mix yesterday, there’s a part at the end where one of the scientists seems to get cloned.

Being an idiot I jumped into the cloning machine in the hope of being cloned.

TWHL Mix

for Half-Life

The teleportation device is malfunctioning and you keep getting sent to random locations.

All you can do is try to survive long enough in the hope of getting home again.

Trust no-one and kill everything that stands in your way

7 Tips for New Players – The 7 Series

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

I was watching NCIS just now and they were talking about Gibbs’ rules. It got me thinking about what “rules” I would give to new players and suddenly I had another 7 Series article!

7 Types of Half-Life Players – The 7 Series

We all can be pidgeon-holed. The key is getting the holes accurate.

In this 7 Series article, I present 7 possible types of Half-Life player.

After reading the types below, if you think I have the wrong types just add your own titles and descriptions.

Which one are you?

There’s very little objective, except keep moving forward and stay alive.

Keep looking for the lambda signs and explore every little nook and cranny
