There’s some chat that this impressive update of Half-Life 2 to a better level of graphics isn’t impressive enough. Some gamers suggest the Cinematic Mod for the game is better. There’s a debate though. Half-Life 2 isn’t just about visuals; it’s about the mood and atmosphere. I think this mod does a good job at […]
Short film: Half-Life – Raise the Bar
This is a fan made film inspired by Half-Life. The usual disclaimers apply; no affiliation, no copyright threat and the film makers would love it if the attack lawyers stayed at home. On the subject of staying at home; this is one day in which the workers at the Black Mesa Research Facility wished they […]

Half-Life fan movie: Beyond Black Mesa
The fan made video Geek Native posted yesterday was Lazy Teenage Superheroes which was made with a budget of about $300. It was pretty good. There’s also the impressive Fallout fan film: Nuka Break. It’s a fan film festival! Imagine, then, what a fan made film with similar talent could do for $1,200. Beyond Black […]
Half-Life film: Beyond Black Mesa
Okay, for legal reasons, I think it’s best to call this a movie inspired by Half-Life. It’s a fan made production and isn’t official at all. However, it looks pretty darn good! They had a budget of $1,200. It’s taken two years to get this far. I don’t know about you but I’m already rooting […]
