The Citizen

for Half-Life 2

The Citizen is set parallel to the events of the original Half-Life 2.

The player takes the role of an ordinary man, pushed over the edge by the oppressive regime controlling his life.

With his home trashed, his family dead, The Citizen leaves his apartment for the last time to seek new friends and a way to help the Human Resistance to smash the iron grip of the Combine. What follows is a winding tale of betrayal, determination and grief.

Many obstacles lie in his path, requiring a sleek combination of agility, stealth, intelligence, and sheer violence to overcome.

Please note, the RTSL file contains ALL the latest patches; The 1.1 version, the July 2010 patch AND the Source SDK 2013 patch. No other patches are needed.

Poll Question 069 – Full graphic settings or not at all?

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

I had an interesting discussion with a very partisan PP reader. His position was related to Crysis and is this: “If you can’t run this game at full graphic settings then you probably shouldn’t play it at all!”. So, this week’s poll question is:

Full graphic settings or not at all?

Black Mesa Home Cinema

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

I just found this interesting article called 10 stunning ultra-geeky home cinemas and of course my mind suddenly jumped to Black Mesa. I would definitely build a Black Mesa themed home cinema if I had the cash and space.

In fact since I love concrete and industrial design my dream house might look very similar to Black Mesa anyway. I can just imagine a concrete room with a fireplace and a Chesterfield Chair with some Dutch masters on the wall!

If you had the cash and space, what themed home cinema would you like?
