Samapico Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 The guys making Black Mesa (aka Black Mesa: Source) put out an official trailer, in which it says it will be out in 2009 For those who don't know, it's a remake of Half-Life 1 with the Source engine used in Half-Life 2. Valve did make Half-Life: Source a while ago, but they didn't even improve the graphics or anything, they just ported the old game to the source engine, with perhaps a few minor improvements. Black Mesa, however, is a complete remake with brand new graphics, but the game itself should remain pretty much the same, except perhaps for a few surprises now possible with the Source engine. oGlhgVz5r6Ehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGlhgVz5r6E http://www.blackmesasource.com/
PoLiX Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 kick ass, this will be one of the next games I get.
Samapico Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Posted December 10, 2008 Should be totally free too, since it's an independent mod. As long as you have at least one game of the Orange Box (I think... not sure which version of the source engine they use exactly)
Incomplete Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 I still haven't completed the Orange Box
kid Posted December 12, 2008 Report Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) rather psyched about this one. edit: just noticed, i'm rocking a half life sig right now. Edited December 12, 2008 by kid
Chambahs Posted December 21, 2008 Report Posted December 21, 2008 It does look really nice, but nowadays really nice looking games arent that good. People are too into OMG REALISTIC and OMG PHYSICS, and not OMG STORY or OMG COMMON SENSE. Kinda getting tired of it tbh.
Samapico Posted December 21, 2008 Author Report Posted December 21, 2008 The thing is... Half-Life 1 was good... so it's not like this thing will only have good graphics. It's not a sequel to HL1, it's a remake
