About this product

Product Information

The revolutionary Half-Life set the standard for subsequent first-person shooters. As each new section or level is reached, the game pauses to load it, making for massive, seamless environments. Nearly all levels are located in or around the Black Mesa Research Facility, including subterranean railroads, laboratories, ventilation shafts, cafeterias, missile silos, and eventually the aliens' home world. The diverse range of enemies includes tank-like warrior spore plants, headcrabs, and possessed scientists, just to name a few. Horror novelist Marc Laidlaw's storyline tells a chilling tale of government scandal and experiments gone wrong.<br><br>As if the protagonist of the story, Gordon Freeman, doesn't have enough on his hands with the varying cadre of foes, he's being hunted by marines and government assassins as well. As Freeman, you need to find weapons to survive. The arsenal includes a melee wrench, pistol, shotgun, assault rifle, rocket and grenade launcher, and various alien armaments scavenged off dead soldiers. Unlike many first-person shooters, health and ammunition packs are located in sensible locations. First aid kits are attached to walls in medical laboratories, while ammunition is logically found in weapon depots or on dead marines. Your protective suit acts as armor and can be replenished in certain locales.<br><br>Half-Life uses a modified version of id Software's Quake engine (combined with about 50 lines of code from the Quake 2 engine), resulting in realistic levels and locations with fearsome aliens waiting to end your struggle at every turn. While the game is flawless, the online deathmatch aspect suffered initially from high server latency, later fixed through a series of patches. Winning over 50 Game of the Year awards and named best game of all time by PC Gamer magazine, Half-Life is an extraordinary achievement that established the benchmark for future games in the genre.<br><br>In addition to the original game, Half-Life: Game of the Year Edition contains new multiplayer maps and models in addition to the Team Fortress add-on. The storyline was created by horror novelist Marc Laidlaw.<br><br>The original Half-Life has been the recipient of more than 40 Game of the Year awards from various publications such as USA Today, PC Gamer, and Computer Gaming World and also captured the prestigious Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences award.

    A classic that stands the test of time

    I first played Half Life in 1999 when it was considered the gold standard for games in it's genre. My children play it now and it draws them in the same as it did me. Although we have the latest game consoles with the newest games this one still competes when it comes to a compelling story line and just plain fun. Blue Shift and Opposing Force are nice additions to have when you finish Half Life and still want more.

  • Half-Life provides a thriller/fun experience for hours on end.

    I remember playing Half-Life years ago and loved it. A decade later and I still LOVE the game! So, I looked it up and bought it. For those who know about Half-Life, I don't have to say too much, for you already know. For those who do not... this game encompasses a great story, graphics, and thrill. This first-person perspective game offers hours upon hours of entertainment and excitement.

  • I play the Half Life Game of the year and I love it.

    I love this game.

  • Doesn't play in Windows 10

    When I bought it I didn't see anything about the System reqirements. Lost out. No problem about the product, it was as he stated. I will just have to be more careful on what I buy next time.
