Full use has also been made of the Source engine's implementation of Havok physics. Most items can be picked up and thrown around, and the explosive action is much more chaotic than ever before. But it's the simple things that amuse, it seems - we spent more time than is probably healthy stacking chairs, folders and magazines on the Anomalous Materials reception desk during our initial run through.

No because we will never, ever, ever, ever see it.

Will this ever come out tho? soon it will look dated and unimpressive.

JC · 2 Sep 2010 at 10:03

It may be, but it's also one of the most hyped and delayed

Probably going to be the ultimate fail mod if they keep delaying it.

reflux · 2 Sep 2010 at 10:40

Was due out almost a year ago - I've lost hope of ever seeing it.

apatia77 · 2 Sep 2010 at 10:41

Probably going to be awesome but please release that damn thing this year!

dirtydog · 2 Sep 2010 at 10:44

I'd be happy to pay full price for this, if it lived up to the hype.

Isn't it officially going to take several more YEARS to be finished? :eek:

The game's more or less complete - albeit with lots of tweaking to go - right up to the Xen levels.

That'll do me nicely. Get it out already!

Well they've promised it will be out before the end of the year, but then again they said that last year.

Lets hope it actually arrives this year.

I am still looking forward to this.

It is a MAMMOTH task though... I think it is being done in their spare time too for free so cut them some slack.

Black Mesa is a lie.

Its being released in a 'mega delay double pack' with Duke Nukem Forever.

Is this the re-make of Half Life 1 in the Half Life 2 engine?

Mobius 1 · 2 Sep 2010 at 11:57

valve should have lent them some fundings or dev's or something, then it would get released much quicker! i remember getting excited about this a few years back when i had my main rig.

It is.

I actually bought half life source stupidly thinking it would be like hl1 with hl2 graphics, oh they sharpened up the textures slightly...and the water is the same as hl2!
