Half-Life

What can you say at this point. Simply put, Half-Life is a masterpiece of FPS, and video gaming in general. It holds up, and then some. Games today still have a mighty hard time coming close to Half-Life. Run. Think. Shoot. Live.

Half-Life is one of the greatest games in history. It has had the same influence on the game industry as ancient Greek or Roman civilizations had on the prosperity of humanity. Half-Life’s original engine, GoldSrc, is a predecessor of the infamous Source, which has made an enormous impact on games’ physics functioning and incredible flexibility, and which also leads us to the widely celebrated Counter-Strike and Team Fortress. This game is old; however, it’s still engaging and interesting to play. Sometimes it’s tremendously difficult. I really can’t count how many times I died fighting aliens and the armed forces of HECU, falling off ladders and narrow passages into the abyss. I find something mesmerizing in strolling along musty sewer tunnels, sparkling laboratory facilities, the dry wasteland of New Mexico, and, of course, the Xen world. Players are provided with a variety of weapons and foes to test their arsenal on. The game challenges your prowess and skill. I remember how I was afraid of losing all of my ammo, because that would mean I wouldn’t be able to vanquish the entities from Xen and the final boss. What makes this game so interesting even nowadays: is it fantastic writing or a vast assortment of new breakthrough features? I can’t answer that question precisely. Nonetheless, I can assure you that it’s worth it to go on this venture and dedicate your time to the astonishing universe of Half-Life.
