What exactly does “Single Player” mean?

Introduction I’m working on a little idea that blurs the line between SP & MP and I have been thinking about what defines a single player game. I should also mention that I’m only viewing this from the perspective of First Person Shooters. I’m not suggesting that every SP game/mod/level has to have these points… Read More

Azure Sheep

for Half-Life

Introduction
Azure Sheep is a single player mod for Half-Life. You play one of the security guards that is on duty in one of the entrances of the Black Mesa facility. When the chaos starts you realise that Kate, your colleague, code name Azure Sheep, is in the complex and in big danger. You decide to rescue her!

The Story
Barney is a security guard, well Barney at the moment is just Barney, or, well, Just Barney, because with all the recent mess at Black Mesa he can’t remember his name. Just Barney didn’t want to be a security guard but, you know life.

However, he had a secret dream, he was writing a novel and…but well that is another story. Barney has another dream: to become a hero and rescue a princess, nothing more. Now, when the big mess occurred, he was in the first security post of Black Mesa and a colleague of him, Kate, (codename Azure Sheep) seems to be trapped in. Barney will go and try to rescue her, what an occasion…

Star Wars Missions

for Half-Life

You are Pheonum Rendar, son of Dash; you are a hired mercenary that’s gotten some notable credit over the past few years. You’ve now been hired as a terrorist by the Rebellion to assassinate key Imperial figures, and destroy sites of important imperial importance.

Your first mission is to assassinate General Akardy, the commander of a garrison at Mos Eisly that often hangs out at the ME Cantina. So hop on your land speeder, drive through the city, buy some weapons from the local arms dealer, bomb the Cantina, fight your way through the Gaul Spaceport and steal the General’s shuttle (it actually flies!) and escape the planet.

Your second mission is to destroy the latest batch of tie bombers at an Imperial factory in a canyon on Hoth. Just break in, fight your way to the main level and hit the Process Destruct Button.

Sweet Half-Life

for Half-Life

You are McGinley, the black mesa warehouse manager. You feel that something is going REALLY wrong, and you were right. As you let the scientist escape by locking the garg by the first door (Press the button), he wants you to check the cargo terminal, but not before you get an HEV Suit, a crowbar and a glock.

You see ALIENS have invaded the area. It’s a good time to put your weapons in action, and mow down the cargo terminal. You make your way through the sewers of black mesa, the surface complex, you get the M16 and vulcan, the train station, the Lambda Complex, the Hangar, a Giant blaster lab, an alien ship, and not surprisingly, Xen.

Hint: If you stay and wait long enough after the credits, you will see (Choose route B) Adrian Shepard, on an abandoned asteroid. (Choose route A) R-A-C-E’s Defat
