For those of you who don't know, Black Mesa Source is a complete recreation of Half Life 1 using the HL2 engine. Its a mod and I believe its coming out later this year or early next year for the the pc. I'm hyped, how about you?

I always wanted to play the original, but I am handicapped by the fact that I like graphics more than gameplay... so bad graphcs are a no go for me. Will definitely buy this...

I really hope it gets a console release. Even if it's free I'm willing to pay, that look freaking awesome. I'd get it on the PC if my computer was powerful enough to play it.

If Valve decide to hire the team who make it iam sure its possible, but without Valves involvement you won't see it on a console.

Wow, I really can't wait to play this now. I've always wanted to play HL1 but, unfortunately, the graphics have been an obstruction. Needn't worry anymore though. I'm willing to buy this.

I was really anticipating it a few years ago, but the team is taking so goddamned long to release it that I've decided to not care until it's actually released.

Errr, you'd have to have a REALLY crappy computer to not be able to play this on it. lol And no, it's a mod, no console release will come out.

I never hype mods like this because they take ages to develop, or in some cases just cease to exist. Ill get excited once its finished.

GANGSTASAN

Mods have to be free Unless they buy a license for the Engine or the Dev picks them up. (They could charge people for access to the Website in order to download the mod that however they can do)

But Valve is known to Pick up Mod Teams in the past, CS; Team fortress; Garry's Mod; And I believe Left 4 Dead started as a mod. (Not 100% sure on that one)

I disagree, maybe you hyped it too much before you played it. Or maybe you just don't like games............like that.

I heard that valve is actually helping them with the project. I think they are helping with the voice work but thats all I heard. And the chanses of Valve buying this team and selling this game on Steam are pretty high....

This could possibly be the best mod created up to this date. I can already tell it's going to be high quality, just look at the custom models and level design......so many custom textures and models....

Although it wouldn't be free, this would be the best thing that could happen since you would get better quality.

Oh it is? I always assumed Black Mesa was going to be a different game, not a recreation of the original. I guess it does make more sense that it'd be a recreation though.

I'll buy it anyways as Half Life has always been incredibly awesome.

I wouldn't mind if Valve Supported it, I would gladly buy it.

I always wanted to finish Half-Life 1, I have HLS but for some reason It gives me Motion Sickness, I always just get about half way through and I can't play anymore.:( it's the only game that does this.

I *love*awesome shooters. I'm not a huge fan of interactive stories with mediocre shooter elements. After playing Duke 3D, I got into Half-Life with high expectations to find... Better graphics, a well told but pretty generic sci-fi story, and noticeably inferior shooter elements. Always thought it was hugely overrated, relying on storytelling, gimmicks, and pretty bleh puzzles to compensate for poor shooter elements. Half-Life 2, on the other hand, was spectacular... But I had trouble finishing the original.

Add to this that its multiplayer was a quickly forgotten joke (CS and TF were mods, they weren't actually Half-Life - new user-made games using the same engine)... Yeah, it was a decent FPS that pushed a lot of envelopes and opened the door for a lot of future developments - but is sorely overrated in my eyes.

Other way around for me. Didn't like Half Life 2 but loved the original. Then again, the whole game was spoiled to me by a friend =/

Heh, your loss. I respect that a lot of people like the original HL a lot... I just felt it was trumped in a lot of areas by FPS's that came before it - namely DN3D - and it basically survived on technical merits (good graphics, modding added value). So, now that they're remaking it, I'm not lining up to be bored all over again.

So they get other people to do the work and they make money from it?

Good business plan.

I don't know how many years I've been waiting for this mod. But I'm waiting patiently... these guys are doing a fantastic job, and they are sacrificing their spare time on making it as awesome as possible.
