Half life

This is strange because I started playing Half Life : Source a couple of days ago after never playing it before. It's definatly a lot harder than HL2 because the enemies never miss and you seem to die really fast.
 
Is the random guy who appears in HL2:Ep2 in HL1 at all? Beacuse Id really like to know why everyone knows who he is, yet as far as I can suss, the only link is he owned the microwave meal that everyone who ever played HL1 nuked! :)
 
i bought the original HL from someone in the MM ages ago and i still haven't got around to playing it yet. :o maybe this weekend. :p

i love hl2/ep1/ep2 so i really ought to. :)

If you put the HL key into steam you will get a load of extras as well, pretty sure you get OPFOR and Blue Shift as well.

EDIT -

Team Fortress Classic, Opposing Force, Half-Life, Half-Life: Blue Shift

Pretty sure that is what you get if you enter a Half-Life or BlueShift CD-Key :)

yup, did that ages ago. just haven't played them yet. :p
 
depends on the difficulity really :p if its on easy dont bother with cheats if ya good at half life and wana see the story but if ya wana put it on hard then dying might get annoying if ya trying to see all the story lines and dont want to get stuck on certain bits cos u have low health or no ammo :p hehehe thats my justification of cheating anyway but i still try not too as must as poss... been playing the origional quake on nightmare... name says it all in later levels

The thing I found annoying about playing half-life on hard wasn't that you die too much it was that it made your weapons seem weak (as in it takes more shots to kill all the enemies). You can fire twenty rounds into a soldier at point-blank and he's still fine.

I would recommend playing it on Medium without any cheats. Amazing game.
 
I stuck this on the other day again to see how my GT fares, jesus, i can't even hit the soldiers, they to damn fast now, its like playing at warp speed, its great. :D:D
 
I didn't know until recently that Half-Life was inspired by the Stephen King short story The Mist, one of the very few of his that I haven't read.
