If you’re a fan of the Half-Life Series, chances are, you know the company Black Mesa. And if you’ve played Portal, you know all about it. As technology progresses and as the Source engine tightens, they decided it’s time to revisit the past. They planned on recreating the first ever Half Life story, how it happened, and put a deeper more stable story to go with it. A triler has already been released but the unveiling hasn’t been… yet.

Here’s th trailer (watch it in HD if you can):

It is basically the first ever Half Life game with better graphics and gameplay.

An official website HAS BEEN put up. One complete with level designs, weapon designs, concept artworks, game models, and characters. It also has a feature where the community can actually design a character/weapon/level and just leave it to Source if they actually pick you!

Also, don’t forget to visit their YouTube Channel/Page. There, they show you trailers, tests, walkcycles and more.

All in all, the game looks promising! I just don’t know what people might think in playing a remake of a game they’ve already played.

[UPDATE: 02/08/2010]:

Also, if you’ve visited their website, you may have already discovered that the game WILL BE FREE!!!

YUP! As long as you have a copy of ANY source engine game on steam, Black Mesa will cost you nothing. Zip. Nada.
