Half Life 2 was a fantastic game when it arrived several years. Taking the solid architecture of the original game and expanding on that, it was a challenging FPS title that was followed by two more successful episodes. And then it just dropped off the face of the earth.
Fans have been begging developer Valve for years now as to whether or not anything is being done with regards to a sequel of some sort. ... [»]
We all love Half Life. I mean, it ushered in a whole new era of video games. Who could ever forget that awesome first experience of sitting on the train as Gordon Freeman, watching the world flow by the windows as you made your way to the most interesting day of work that a scientist would ever have?

You might recall 2 years back, that some fans made a short Half-Life 2 fan film with a ridiculously low budget - that was nothing short of amazing. The entire project was to cost a mere $500, which in terms of videomaking is roughly nothing. That $500 was meant to cover two episodes, but we’ve seen just the ... [»]
There’s certainly no shortage of sexy women in video games. But what about the hottest male characters? Who are the pixelated guys that the ladies love to perv over? Who has the gaming girls out there reaching regularly for their… erm… controller?Of course, any “Sexiest†list is highly subjective – these are my personal picks (in no particular order) from the current gaming generation – and I’m sure to ...

Of All time! And Beyonce’s not one of them, thankfully. Empire have put together yet another list that will be unable to please everybody, this time focusing on the greatest video game character of all time.I can’t say I personally agree with the list – particularly the character given its number one spot. They’ve awarded the accolade to Half-Life’s Gordon Freeman. While a fantastic character in an even ... [»]
Genius. That’s the single word I can use to sum up the latest bit of hype-generating from Valve. Employing the model of Alternate Reality Gaming, they mysteriously updated Portal with all manner of digital clues, as seen in our previous post. The internet collective have proven their mental fortitude, cracking each successive clue like some sort of hive mind. Hit the jump to see what’s been discovered so far. Of the 28 new sound recordings found in the ... [»]
The Bento is a traditional Japanese lunchtime staple, a single-portion meal generally consisting of rice, a meat of some sort and vegetables for good measure, fancifully arranged in a box. And Although available as commercial, mass-produced meals, the best ones are made by the Japanese wife and mother.Even cooler are kyaraben or character bentos – in which the ... [»]
Now I've always enjoyed the older Half-Life titles but pretty much got lost in the story etc during my gaming dark-ages. But I'm back on the wagon and have allowed Half-Life to pass on by as I came to love some other titles. But I was pretty intrigued when I read about the impending release for this new mod for Half-Life 2.The promising mod ... [»]
There have been so many fan films and rumours running around about a Half Life 2 movie that it is becoming virtually impossible to believe that it isn’t going to happen. This latest one isn’t to my tastes at all but the high level of the special effects makes me think this is more than just a simple fan movie, however that could just be put down to my absolute lack of movie making ability. I am not a fan of handicam movies though, so if they ... [»]
$500… I can’t get past that. Apparently these first few episodes of the Half Life story cost a grand total of $500 to produce… That’s insane when you think about how much money Egoli or Laugh out Loud had to go on. I would love to see this get picked up by one of the major TV’s guys and to give it the love it truly deserves.
