    Black Mesa Source (A Half-Life Remake)

    Has anyone else been keeping an eye on this? They've been working on it for years, and it was starting to seem like it would never see the light of day.. But it looks like it was finally released just a few weeks ago.

    I'm downloading it as I type.. http://www.blackmesasource.com/download.html

    Black Mesa (formerly Black Mesa: Source) is a Half-Life 2 total conversion remaking of Valve Software's award-winning PC game, Half-Life.

    Utilizing the Source engine, Black Mesa will reintroduce the player as Doctor Gordon Freeman, along with the original cast of memorable characters and environments seen in Half-Life. Black Mesa was built and founded on the basis that Half-Life: Source didn't fully live up to the potential of a Source engine port of Half-Life. As such, Black Mesa was founded to fully reconstruct the Half-Life universe utilizing Source to its fullest potential in terms of art detail, level sizes and code features. It should be noted that the project is being built from the ground up and is not a simple port of Half Life maps and models into the Source Engine. The idea is to remake the storyline used in Half Life into a new polished Source Engine version with new models, maps, soundtrack, voice acting and textures.

    Here's the trailer they released back in like '08 or '09:

      I want to play this but I was skeptical by the download process. What site did you download from and is it easy to install both files?

        It was very easy to install. You basically just run the install.exe or whatever it's called and then you can play it through steam just like any other game.

        The only extra step is downloading the free source 2007 sdk through steam.. Don't remember off the top of my head exactly where you find that in steam, but it was pretty easy to find.

        As far as the download goes, I'm not sure about their mirror sources. I just downloaded their torrent file and did it that way.
