    It happens. There’s nothing we can do about it. It’s a fact of modding life. Sometimes mods die before they have reached maturity. We weep, we look to the sky and wonder what could have been and then we move on with our lives.

    A simple layout with a couple of small rooms and a couple of larger ones. The Army grunts stand in your way and there’s only one option: kill them. Get to the second room and that’s it!

    “This map consists of a flat desert which covers the maximum 2 dimensional area possible in a Half-Life map. The interesting thing about the map are the small armies of human grunts and Xen aliens facing each other. Join in the fight or sit back and watch the fun! Run around a bit, letting some enemies chase you, so that they see the other army and the action starts. You will also probably want to use the cheats described below, if only to give yourself some weapons! This map may run choppily, due to the large number of monsters. If you see the framerates start to drop, remember you can always turn down the resolution.”

    “You were working in your lab late one night, running tests with your lab buddies. Then there was a knock on the door. You answered it to the bad end of a AK-47. Then marines rushed the room and took you and your buddies hostage. Now you wake up in your cell with only your wits and your compact super-secret CROWBAR.”

    You start in the future and have to travel back in time to stop Dr. Slick from doing something.

    I’m not exactly sure what!

    “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?

    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.
