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

As with all my “What would Freeman…”, the question relates to BEFORE the Black Mesa incident. Let’s see if we can get a sort of consensus of his character.

This week, I ask about the kind of music he listens to. As with last week, you can choose a number of options. This week you have a maximum of two votes.

There’s pretty much nos tory to this one. Get from where you start to the Antlion Guard arena and kill everything in your way.

Solve the puzzle to get the HEV suit and things get even harder after that.

Alyx and some squad friends make life a little easier for you. Don’t forget to thank them.

Paclife Alpha

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

This is an Alpha release of a conversion of Pacman. It was due to be part of the Arcadium mod I was hoping to produce but unfortunately that hasn’t happened.

It was never designed for public release, as all alphas aren’t, but I am releasing it now, with Joe’s permission, so that in conjunction with the post about the mod, it may gain some exposure and hopefully members of the mapping community will decide it’s worth the effort and take the concept further.

I would like to publicly apologize to Joe for letting him down. Sorry Joe.

Work your way around a maze and find the central waterfall.

Of course, you will find enemies and barriers to your progress, but you didn’t expect it to be easy did you?

Can you reach the center?

Arcadium – A mod idea

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

I’ve started this post about 10 times in the last 3 years and never finish it. In fact, at one time or another it has had its own website! I always stop and change the way I try and explain it because I am never happy with it. Well, this is the last time I start this post because I promised myself I would finish it today.

Monkey See, Monkey Do.

I am intrigued by the use of video games for uses other than entertainment. I’ve heard of treatment for arachnophobia with Unreal Tournament and I seem to remember something about vertigo too.

I have little doubt that lots of people have experimented with games for education, in fact there’s at least one HL2 mod that attempts to teach science and history called DoomEd. If I were 25 years younger this would probably be one area of study I would have focused on.
