Station 51

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

Station 51 is the current mod in the Critical Jim event.

You receive a message from another outpost warning you of a imminent attack on your outpost.

Just as get the message, a Combine helicopter flies over and you know that it’s going to be tough.

Work your way through to the Combine building and attempt to use the portal.

Good luck, you are going to need it.

Poll Question 309 – For the next Half-Life game, what are you more interested in? (choose 2)

I think if I had asked this question immediately after the release of Episode 2 in 2007, the answer people would possible have given would be different.

Then in say 2011, it might be different again.

Now, I think we just want to know what happens. If Valve said they are not going to make a game but a comic instead, a little like Labrat whilst it would crash the Internet at least I would know what happens to the protagonists and Earth.

That’s kinda more important to me than anything at this point.

What about you?

March 2015 General Chat

DOH! I forgot about the chat post and I am 4 days late. Sorry about that.

So far this month, we have had the Source 2 announcement and even the BBC had coverage of Half-Life on its site – YAY!

I’m off on a long weekend trip this weekend to recharge my batteries, fingers crossed it’s sunny.

What have you seen in the news recently?

Half-Life 3 Review Writing Competition

I’m sure you’ve seen the recent rumours about Half-Life 3. Some may have even seen my silly prank on Steam, where I changed the name of a mod to something like “HL3 – Dev Test” – sorry about that. You would be surprised at how many people messaged me and asked..”IS THAT F*%KING REAL?!“.

Anyway, I am a fan of Stanisław Lem, a Polish science fiction writer. He wrote some great SF but he has also written fictitious criticism of non-existing books, which is an idea that fascinates me. So much so, that I decided to steal it for a writing competition.

You wake up after a car accident you can’t remember.

Your family is alone! You must make your way back to them.

Unfortunately, you are very far from home and a lot stands between you and them.

Remember, every journey starts with a single step.

Good Luck!

OMG, it hasn’t stopped raining for about a week. The small underpass at the end of my road flooded on Friday and we’ve had snow-like hailstones today. YUCK. Hope it gets better.

February is here and I haven’t posted that many maps and mods, so sorry about that.

To be honest, this new theme is taking almost all my time, I’ll be glad when it’s live and I can concentrate on CONTENT!

Anyway, over to you, let’s chat.
