Half-Life and Doom are finally together in a visionary new mod
Half-Life and Doom. I struggle to think of two games that have influenced me more. Between the iconic, flickering corridors of Valve's Black Mesa and the run-and-gun fury of id Software's defining FPS, my own taste in videogames is irredeemably shaped by these giants of PC history. Without Half-Life, there would be no Counter-Strike 2, no Portal, no Left 4 Dead - maybe even no Steam. Take Doom out of the equation, and the shooter as we know it might never have existed. Now, Gordon Freeman and Doomguy are finally united, thanks to an imaginative new Doom mod that incorporates the instantly recognizable sounds and effects from Valve's 1998 classic. It's not exactly Half-Life 3, but it's a heck of a substitute.
