Grinwhrl Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 wow, its so wierd how good that used to look. Quote
insta Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 Really cool stuff. I wonder why the framerate/movement was so slow? Anyway, if you liked that you should check out http://www.planethalflife.com/nostalgia/. That site holds a large collection of old screenshots and movie clips. Quote
Oski Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 The weirdest thing is that was ten years ago! Feels like just a few years ago I bought HL. Quote
KungFuSquirrel Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 The weirdest thing is that was ten years ago! Feels like just a few years ago I bought HL. well, 7 1/2-ish. Game shipped in November 98, so it'll be 8 years this november. But still... yeah. Crazy that they gutted almost all of that in the course of the following year or so. I remember that formal looking room with the pillars and such (two marines and an old hostile barney in the video) being one of my favorite shots pre-release but it never made the final game. Quote
Izuno Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 wow that brings back the memories. i think when HL came out it was my favorite time in gaming...before PS2 and Xbox etc...even though I really do like a lot of that generation games it was the HalfLifes, Jedi Knight, C&C games and SNES / N64 that brings most warmth to my heart when it comes to gaming. sigh...

Mazy Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 Haha sweet, never seen that trailer before but I remember the first picture I saw of Half-Life was with some sandbags and a green hud. Also quite cool to see those now classic textures used so ineffiecently Quote
Section_Ei8ht Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 Damnit, I'm 19 and this thread makes me feel old. sigh, indeed. I remember Jedi Knight. Still play it through every now and then. One of the best. Quote
RD Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 i never saw any screens or trailers for hl before i played it. I got a full demo before the game was released and i was pleasantly surprised. It was a lifechanging game Quote
Alf-Life Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 Hehe, I remember seeing that on like, PC Zone or PC Gamer's cover disc... I found the chumtoad killing the scientist NPC so awesome at the time, although looking back now (and knowing the backstory behind the making of the game) it's crazy how much they reorganised, improved and achieved in less than a year. Oh, and KFS: wasn't the pillar room from/consolidated into HL Uplink? Quote
dissonance Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 Damnit, I'm 19 and this thread makes me feel old.lol, same here. Quote
General Vivi Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 ditto. i felt like i was about 30 years old Quote
