The 7 Day Giveaway

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

Starting tomorrow, Monday 27th June 2011, I willing be giving away one game from the Half-Life series (excluding Portal 1 and 2) everyday.

As usual, there will be a Half-Life trivia question to filter the unworthy! Of course, you, the reader, will probably already own these games, but as we know gamers are generous people and I am sure you know somebody who would love to play them.

All games have been kindly donated by Wozzle, a regular PP commenter – thanks Wozzle!

If you have any games you wish to donate to my giveaways, please contact me.

“Guess what? Gordon got himself another job! And once more it’s a high Tech low profile kind of thing at another secret location somewhere in the Arizona desert. Some people just never learn, do they? Unfortunately, Gordon’s old army buddies got wind of his new job and following the saying “if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again”, have decided to do everything in their power to make Gordon’s first day at work a very very VERY bad one. As I said before, some people just never learn…”

You find yourself in a large cell. Time to break out me thinks!

Then, work your way through the prison complex and eliminate anybody that stands in your way.

Smart works more than run and gun in this place, so look around, you never know what you might see.

Radix

You find yourself on a spaceship, which seems to be researching Xen lifeforms.

Follow the clues to a spot on the ship and then ignore the sign.

At this point things turn fun!

Are you fast and smart enough to escape? Only time will tell….

“Hope you are enjoying your short rest, Mr Freeman. I trust the new apartment is to your liking. Please do not try to escape again, we are watching you.
We have received information that a squad of maverick soldiers at a military base near your previous place of employment has a small number of Xen specimens’ capture and are planning to go public with them, we cannot allow this to happen.”

Freeman’s Fight

for Half-Life

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

There is no story or background to this 14 map collection and there levels are a quite repetitive.

The action is relentless and the difficulty ever increasing.

Can you reach Xen and the special portal?

In The Kitchen

for Half-Life

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

Starting in the kitchen you need to kill everything you find and then look for the secret button to release the floor doors and enter the underground area.

That’s all there is: no story, just an excuse to shoot stuff.

Sounds fun to me!
