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

    Up until now all the real themes posts have been about man-made things; tunnels dams etc. This one is both natural and beautiful. It’s an underground “river” in Mexico. I say “river” because it’s different layers of fresh and salty water and hydrogen sulphide.

    Starting out in a cell, a tremor allows you to start your escape.

    Find the correct route and avoid the Metrocops if you can (you can’t!).

    The maps end at the bottom of the large stairwell in a room with a door that has hall of mirrors effects.

    This has been discussed a few times in other mods but I felt it was time for a proper debate in its own post. I have copied a lot of the discussion from another post because it was what started my thinking about the idea.

    Can you find your way through the maze of buildings and enemies to reach the “The Sphere”.

    If you can get there you will find you can only break it using a crowbar. Good luck.

  • Poll Question 170 – What kind of pet would Freeman have?

    As with all my “What would Freeman…”, the question relates to BEFORE the Black Mesa incident.

    Let’s see if we can get a sort of consensus of his character.

    To be honest, I’m not sure what kind of pet, if any, if would have. I suppose the idea of a dog by his side and him walking in the woods is appealing to me, but at the same time he might not have had a pet at all.

    Starting on a moving “train” you follow your instincts to each new location.

    Explore and don’t rush into any area without a good look around.

    You start in a small town and have to work your way through the tunnels.

    You meet Father Grigori but are blocked from reaching him and from then on your objective is to join him.

    Recently, I was browsing Half-Life Library and on the frontpage I noticed a link to somebody called Kevin Bowen. I have to admit I had never heard of him, but I was curious. I read a little about him and followed the link to his Top Ten Reasons Half-Life is Still #1.

    Having quite enjoyed the piece I felt it was time for me to write something similar. So, here are my 10 reasons why I love the Half-Life series of games.
