Starting in a small warehouse, you must use the large elevator to descend the lower levels.

Stopping at each one to extract any useful equipment and kill the soldiers.

The last one has a small surprise. Good Luck!

Gordon Freeman is investigating a recent disappearance of Woodstock’s citizens.

Many people have said that they heard screams at the old Woodstock Manor and Gordon is sent in.

Gordon can’t find the place and arrives late in the night.

Has it become too easy?

Has is become too easy?

That’s a question that seems silly. Nothing can be “too” easy, right?

Well, I disagree. By being too easy, we open the flood gates to work that doesn’t deserve our attention.

In this article I am going to talk about two aspects of mod making; creation and promotion.

The Night Things 1

for Half-Life

You find yourself in a dark and atmospheric place.

Work your way through the Cathedral to the Garden and finally onto the graveyard.

Fighting Zombies and Vortigaunts at every turn.

Audio Interview with CosmicD

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

I was fortunate to get in contact with CosmicD, the maker of The Core for a chat.

He’s not shy and once you get him started he just keeps going. Which is great, because you get to hear his views and ideas on a number of music/mod related topics.

We start in typical English fashion by talking about the weather! Stay tuned though because we do get to modding!

He makes mention of an update to The Core and I am happy to present 2 exclusive images from the new room that is being added to the mod.

Please forgive the seemingly abrupt ending, it really did end like that.

Looking for something that makes no sense? This could be it.

Looking for something that requires quick reactions and delicate touch? This could be it.

Looking for something that is just plain crazy? This is definitely it!

Would you play an anonymous mod?

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

So, after posting this week’s poll question about choosing a mod, an idea popped into my head.

A special feature, where, say once a month, I post an anonymous mod.

Let me explain. I tell you the game it’s for and the file size but you won’t know anything else about it.

Poll Question 245 – How do you choose a mod to play?

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

Obviously, I play everything.

I don’t have to, but I feel it’s required of me.

My reviews don’t carry any more weight than other reviewers, except in the sense that everything I add now, I review, so regular readers can get a sense of how their tastes fit against mine.

“Den Freemen during searching for father arrives in Kongo on military base.

The military be not capable to limit power of the enemies.

Only Gordon knew how to close portal.
