gordon freeman takes army of one to the next level
16 October 2006
In half-life you play as gordon freeman age 27 education phd M.I.T. you have been given a job at the black mesa research facility in black mesa new Mexico. You have been assigned to the anamolous materials sector where an experiment into teleportation technology is being conducted. You push a cart with fuel into the beam and then hit a switch on a cat walk, the machine activates and suddenly teleporter melts down and opens portals to the alien world xen so it has fallen to you to fight the aliens and make it out of the facility alive teaming up with security guards and scientists facing horrific alien creatures, bad ass soldiers and the most unique puzzles this side of the rockies.

Valve made arguably the greatest game of all time. half-life took a new perspective towards gaming mostly with character design. Gordon freeman relates well to the player because much like the player he is just is just an ordinary man who happens to be caught in this conflict then there's the G-man yep every body loves the gman popping up every where around black mesa and you're not sure where he'll be next he is a perfect enigma with pressed grey suit and voice like Hannibal Lector AS one gamer puts it, "there is no time and space for the gman" that's why this game is so good, a balance of action, platforming, puzzle solving, level design and immersive characters. viva la half life
