I really thought I'd never see this in my lifetime...still may not, but they do have a counter up on their site now!

It looks like it's split up and not the full game. I guess this is better than nothing being that the first release date was in 2009.

Feel like i'm missing something here, through never playing Half Life.
A few mentions in Portal and Portal 2, but I'm still none the wiser

Yes you have missed a lot. You owe it to yourself to play through. It probably won't have the same impact it did to me in the late 90's, but it's definitely a game that shouldn't be missed.

Have you played through Half-Life 2, EP1, and EP2?

lol @ the Portal references.

Alas, i'm new to the PC scene really. I've approximately none of the 'classics'.

You have some gaming to do then. They can be had on steam for relatively cheap...get gaming!

Played for a few hours last night. it was fun but does not compare to the original. The half life games have been some of my favorite games of all time.

I couldn't wipe the smile off my face while playing. It really brought me back to 1999 lol. They did an awesome job on the mod. So far it's pretty true to the original.
