Half-Life at 25

Named Game of the Year by over 50 publications, Valve’s debut title and the first game in the Half-Life series, introduced Gordon Freeman, the scientist who must escape from the Black Mesa Reasearch Facility, 25 years ago.

In the first ten years since its 19 November 1998 release it had sold more than nine million copies, and is still considered to be one of the most influential FPS games and one of the greatest video games ever made.

To celebrate the 25th Anniversary Valve reunited the original development team to share their memories of creating Valve’s first game.

Also released is the Half-Life 25th Anniversary Update. The update includes restored content, new multiplayer maps, and a bunch of quality of life updates for the original game.

They had to do the 25th anniversary because the 30th just wouldn’t work for them.

And also because they didn’t give a shit when it turned 20.

That’s pretty cool. The editor should be ashamed though, they could have at least put in a timestamp for the scene when posting a 20 minute video saying “look at the scientist”
