Beyond Black Mesa / Escape from City 17

v Aside from the Battlefield series that I mentioned my love for some previous posts ago, there was also an old FPS game that I absolutely fell in love with and became addicted to. That was Half Life. Set in a secret underground laboratory, you play the role of Gordan Freeman whom, through a series of unfortunate and completely catastrophic events, throws the world into jeopardy - unleashing a torrent of alien scum to invade earth and provoking ''The Combine''.

Half Life and its respected counterparts including Half Life 2 were all great games, and I was delighted to stumble upon two fan made videos the other day whilst browsing Youtube. They both really bring a sense of realism to the Half Life genre. They are both equally amazing videos, and if you have ever played Half Life, this is definately worth checking out!
