spearman914 · Nov 19, 2008, 09:05 PM

Holy shit! 98C for just a game!!

ShadowFold · Nov 19, 2008, 09:11 PM

If you have not played Half Life and are passing this up I will find your house and slap you when you are least expecting it

DonInKansas · Nov 19, 2008, 09:14 PM

I have not played Half Life.

*Ducks the slap*

I'll get it when I get home! I promise!

farlex85 · Nov 19, 2008, 09:18 PM

I haven't played it either, but I didn't really like 2, and I can't play old FPS and enjoy them unless the gameplay is really something unique, but only 98 cents, that's hard to pass up......

Polarman · Nov 19, 2008, 09:21 PM

HL1 was pretty darn awesome when it came out. I really like the occasional help from npc's.

ShadowFold · Nov 19, 2008, 09:26 PM

I wonder if this comes with HL source tho. I think that if you are gonna play it today, the source version is not needed but it really helps!

Nov 19, 2008, 09:34 PM

their selling audio surf for $2.50 too right?

KieranD · Nov 19, 2008, 09:48 PM

I hated how you could not shoot the good guys in HL2 when you had to do it at times in the first one. For ammo alone, and of course for the evil

Braveheart · Nov 20, 2008, 03:30 PM

i love this game! this was the first game i ever played.

JC316 · Nov 20, 2008, 07:01 PM

Well, I would get it except it won't let me register a new account. Figures, steam never works. I enter the stupid letters from the image and it tells me that they are incorrect. Every single time.

MadClown · Nov 21, 2008, 02:22 AM

bought mine last night, i had a burnt copy an old neighbor gave me back in 99, never beat it so now is my chance, plus i want to play natural selection

DaMulta · Nov 21, 2008, 02:36 AM

I always thought that they would redo this game just in graphics....

Just like Doom

Yep I know what I just did

It's free

You're in luck then, there's a HL2 mod which has been in development for years called Black Mesa which uses the HL2 engine to redo HL1.

http://www.moddb.com/mods/black-mesa

I really can't wait till it's released, I've been checking back every so often for a year or two, hopefully it'll be released in my lifetime.

DaMulta · Nov 21, 2008, 03:05 AM

They better let me shoot the good guys........
