    So which half life is this exactly? Just the standard half life 2?

    You no longer need half life 2 to play, http://wiki.blackmesasource.com/System_Requirements

    @Devastater6194 This is the original half life rewritten in the Source (half life 2) engine

    Can't wait

    That's great news! I'll put £100 on Black Mesa Source reaching completion before HL3 is announced ...

    After 8 years of work gamers can enjoy about 8 hours of gameplay.
    I guess this explains why commercial games are £40+ these days...

    And did this remind anyone else of Goldeneye?

    Looks good. Might give it a look. Just wish HL2 had continued this style of gameplay and 'look' rather than that grim Eastern European feel - I hated that.

    Nice to hear that they are doing a release, a shame of course that it still isn't completely finished, but nice just to get to play something after all these years!

    For me, Half Life is still the greatest game ever made. I don't really care if this crashes every 10 minutes, I'm eager to play it.
