Apparently, I can sell DOTA 2!

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

Somebody just asked for a copy of DOTA 2 and since I still have about 30 left, I sent them one.

But as I was doing it, I noticed a new button underneath the usual ones: SELL.

So I click it and the image below is what I saw.

Street Stuck

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

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

Author’s Note:The objective of this short demo is to recreate the City 17 universe in a much more detailed, destructible and architecturally enhanced environment, one that should have been originally presented to us in Episode 1.

This demo was originally part of a much bigger project, but has now been transformed into a small portfolio gameplay piece.

The Evasion

for Half-Life

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

Playing as Adrian Shephard set shortly after the nuclear bomb that devastated the Black Mesa Research Facility.

You find yourself on a Xen “island” being kept out of harms way.

Fortunately, you have managed to contact a scientist back on Earth and he can help you return.

Whether that’s a good thing only time will tell!

Blue Shift: Focal Point

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

Barney Calhoun and Rosenberg reach an older part of the Black Mesa Research Facility where a disused teleporter system is being reassembled by scientists.

To make the teleporter completely operational, Calhoun is forced to travel to Xen and activate a device to allow teleportation to happen. Notable in the older part of the facility are older-looking models of health and HEV chargers and the use of hand scanners instead of retina scanners for identification.

Bootleg Squadrog

for Opposing Force

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

“Bootleg Squadrog, sir. It is not about individualism. It is not about cowboy heroism. It is about being one cohesive unit. The only identity I have is that of a group identity.”

You are sent on a mission to recover Gordon Freeman, but as expected, things don’t go according to plan.

At least you have an escape route planned.

Go get him soldier!

Poll Question 291 – Do you like the idea of a Half-Life movie?

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

Well, it’s been discussed many times before but it finally looks to be happening on a professional scale: A Half-Life (or portal) movie!

I’ll probably be the one Half-Life fan to say that I think it’s a bad idea and here’s why…

You know how a movie is never as good as a book (well almost always never)? I think the same will happen here. Yes, the movie will be fantastic but not if you played Half-Life near when it first came out.
