The undisputed king of mods as far as games are concerned. No game has near the number of official and non-official major (boasting a large following) mods as Half-Life has. Half-Life and its Modifications like CounterStrike Team Fortress and Day of Defeat have set the tone for the multiplayer shooter genre for years now. Only games like BattleField 1942 and Unreal Tournament 2003 have a chance of equaling that success. Check out the Bot Resources lair for bots that you can use in Half-Life and some of its mods.

Still waiting for half life 3 hahah
One of those games that i played when i was a kid, game is very similar to Counter Strike and also i remmember those days when i killed those monsters in this game and they were summoned by some scientiests who failed in experiment…Very cool game even today
I’ve never played Half Life but I remember my older cousin (he has a family now), he would sometimes visit our house and bring his Half Life cd to play and I remember being amazed at the gameplay.
Half Life is a game that shocked the gaming industry back in 1998. It might’ve not been the first of its kind, but it was certainly one of the best. The graphics, inferior compared to today’s photorealistic games, were still amazing when it came out.
