Typical, isn't it? You wait half your life for a new Half-Life game, then two come along at once...
All eyes may be swivelled in the direction of Half-Life: Alyx landing like a gravity-propelled toilet later this month. Yet while everyone's eagerly setting up their VR headsets in preparation, another little chapter of gaming history has just written its final page. Black Mesa, the long-in development remake of Half-Life, is done. Dusted. Finito.
"But wait!" I hear you cry. "Is Black Mesa really a Half-Life game? Can a remake by a bunch of online enthusiasts that's taken fourteen years to finish possibly live up to one of the most influential games ever made?" Well let me tell you, Black Mesa is one Half-Life-ass game. As remakes go, it's about as good as you could hope for. Black Mesa doesn't just make Half-Life better-looking. It makes Half-Life better.
