Black Mesa, the eight-year project to revive Half Life, has been released, a free download bringing the classic game up to speed with Valve’s own Source engine. Including roughly 10hrs of gameplay, this first release completely rebuilds graphics and gameplay with the familiar cast of the original, and includes new maps, media files and more.
The Black Mesa team announced its first ship date earlier this month, focusing on play “all the way up to Lambda Core.” A second part is still in the pipeline, however. “We are still working hard on Xen and BMDM” the team said, “but instead of making you wait we are giving you Black Mesa as soon as it’s ready.”
It’s not the first time we’ve seen Half Life running in a new Source format. Valve itself rebuilt the game – originally using the older GoldSrc engine – in 2004, shortly after Source was developed. However, the gaming community failed to be overjoyed by the end result, criticizing the advances in graphics and gameplay as underwhelming in comparison to what Source is actually capable of.
Black Mesa is the fan-driven replacement, pitting the player – as Doctor Gordon Freeman – back into the Half Life world. You can download Black Mesa for free – it’s a 3.8GB file – though the site itself has had some struggles keeping up under demand today, so you might need to keep trying.
Alternatively, there’s an official torrent, the tracker file for which you can find here. You won’t need a copy of Half-Life: Source to play it, just a copy of any Source Engine game installed on Steam. |

I just found about this yesterday. Which is weird, because I had the strange urge to re-download HL2 a week ago and start playing it, which got me thinking about playing the originals.
I'm pumped for this. Started downloading it when I got home from work. 528 kbit/sec :( |

WOMAN SCIENTIST ALERT
DO NOT DOWNLOAD |
|
I work with women scientists. They are, indeed, terrifying. |
|
Getting this right now...but the DL is 6 hours from a mirror. |

Looks awesome. I slept on half life almost completely and only played it when I got it free with some other product. It came out in the decade when I was sick of fps. When quake 3 was beta testing, I bowed out of FPS until resistance fall of man in 2006 |

they kept mostly true to the story, however there are a few differences. one of them being the order in which you get weapons. you get the magnum much earlier this time around. also, they added the HL2 characters in, which is pretty cool. It's really good though, I'm ejoying it so far. Digesting it slowly.
The new marine voices suck though. I miss the old ones. Other than that, the voice acting and everything has been great. |
|
also, no Einstein hair scientist on this makes me a little mad. some of the scientists models look the same. they could have made a few more of those. All women scientists look the same, too. |

There are no women on the Internet! |
