I have owned Half-Life since 1998. I don't like ego shooters but this is the best game I have ever seen. I own all Half-Life parts and hopefully I can play Episode Three on my old computer... ;-)

I would recommend playing through the game BEFORE you install the mod. The guy changes what all the characters look like. It bothered me. I played the first level, then quit.
you can use the program installed with it (character pimper) and changed them all back to the normal skins. the civilians look sweet, all bruised and bloody, alex is hott. i couldnt get over the new alex skin, it just wasnt her, but the newer old skin rules. she was my very first, and only, video game crush...

I know, i was amazed when i first played it! I played HL2 before i played HL1 so i was totally un-prepared for how big and immersive the world is.

I may play all of them in order from the start again lol, with all the Half Life threads popping up, it's inspiring me!
Lol i got annoyed at that bit as well. I left the game for a month when i got to that point because it annoyed me. Then i went back to it and completed it

I have been to the part with the bridge. I suppose I may have gotten farther than I thought I did.

Also, I have an old retail version of HL1. Can I get it to work with Steam, or would I have to rebuy the game to play it now?

Nominate officers.

You should be President for the following reasons:

You are the Op
You have all HL games which gives you a pretty sound knowledge of the game
You are the Op

Cinematic mod 7

Cinematic mod 8(beta)

*remember to dl all 6 parts of each.

I recommend playing through at least once with everything original, but this is only on principle. The characters aren't changed that dramatically (except alyx )

When I bought my Half-Life in 1998 there was no Steam.

Try to activate your registration key into your Steam account. My 10 years old key works and Steam gives me Blue Shift, Opposing Force, Deathmatch, Counterstrike and some other Half-Life 1 engine based games as gift.
