I wonder if TG has any plans to support this?

Re: Black Mesa Source Trailer

They've been pretty professional, so expect either this Christmas or early 2008. I mean if you visit their site...well you'll see that they've really taken a hard project on with above and beyond insane commitment.

They're remaking the singleplayer, I don't know the exact reason we'd support it other as a download as there are no plans for multiplayer as of yet as of now as of as of. :P

I've been watching this for a while, and I pretty much almost want it more than Episode 2.

Blah, just because it is made by Source, they ruin what they touch for some reason.

Co-op not in the plan? Seems like it would be easy to tack on compared to all the art assets they are remaking.

Re: Black Mesa Source Trailer

What's so cool about this? Is this something I don't get because I didn't play the HL1 expansions?

Any other place to watch it?

Re: Black Mesa Source Trailer

Yeah I don't get it either.. looks like a level fly-through set to some dramatic music. I kept waiting for it to start and then it ended

Re: Black Mesa Source Trailer

Pretty much, Hl1 was great. the HL1:Source game was just pathetic. There wasn't enough stuff in HL1 oringinally to really notice the source engine's functionality.

Black Mesa:Source completely remakes and updates HL1 in the source engine. From better physics and more physics puzzles, to smarter AI and more "realistic" style of enviroment if I remember correctly.

Basically, it's like they just updated hl1 to modern (or 2005/2006) standards of gameplay.

Think of it like compairing doom 1 and doom 3. Doom 3 is pretty much a remake of Doom 1, not really a new game, just modernizing the older game into modern standards of gameplay.
