So I walked in my brothers room the other day and saw a scene I remembered from years past. The Blast pit with that annoying blind talon snake thing. It was fun to watch him play and I actually started to Download the game again to play through it, maybe Opp. force and blue shift too.
Sooo did you guys ever play through the whole thing and the add-on games like opposing force and blue shift? I remember I got to the alien planet in half-life before I got bored with it.

I played through HL twice. I tried playing the sequals but just couldn't get into them like the OG HL.

I still think half-life as a single player was awesome but I also think the alien part SUCKED ... Fear was a lot better at making a cool alien enviroment. Half-life was just sort of messed up gravity and jumping ... Max Payne FTW.

Agreed, I played the whole game through except for the alien part. Sucks they didnt do it better...

In reality "Alien" Cultures/Citys are more sci-fi than reality, I guess its easier to copy a office then a fake alien civilization that you have to makeup right? Throw together 8 platforms you have to jump to with low gravity and you have mario brothers, not half-life. Maybe that was the creators mistake. Its good by what I've seen that most of half-life:source actually takes place in a real-world enviroment rather than in a half-assed pos alien terrain where everything looks the same and blends in... so you can't really take it personally that half-life sucked when you got to the aliens planet... its just a normal part of life.
