Want to feel old? The original Half-Life has turned 20. Valve released its definitive shooter on November 19th, 1998, both stretching the possibilities of the genre (both in technology and storytelling) and laying the groundwork for the company's g...
Ten years ago today, Valve released Half-Life 2: Episode Two. It was the second of three announced games that directly continued the story that started in 2004's heavily lauded Half-Life 2. Episode One and Episode Two were released in 2006 and 2007,...
Nearly ten years after the debut of Half-Life 2: Episode Two, the world is still waiting for Valve to deliver the final episode in the trilogy, but we may have to settle for something else. Just a few months after the last of the game's writers left...
There’s a new Half-Life game out, but it’s not Half-Life 3. It’s not even made by Valve. But that doesn’t mean it won’t be a good game. Currently in development, Half-Line Miami borrows the gameplay and visuals of Hotline Miami and the characters and setting of Half-Life 2.
Like its stylish inspiration, Half-Line Miami will be a fast-paced puzzle about clearing the enemies on a level. But this time the only weapon you have is Gordon Freeman’s Gravity Gun.
Developer Thomas Kole says he’s finished most of the “gameplay stuff.” He’s working on making more maps and fixing the game’s sound. Speaking of which, like Hotline Miami Thomas’ game has a synthwave soundtrack, courtesy of Sung.
The best part? Thomas says he will release Half-Line Miami for free. Put on your headcrab mask and keep an eye on the game’s IndieDB page for updates.

ThinkGeek is now selling an officially licensed plush Headcrab Hat. It sits on top of your head and doesn’t cover your face. Because that would just be silly.
The hat has an adjustable baseball cap-style closure at the back and is made of polyester. We think.
Prepare a crowbar and a torch and head to ThinkGeek to order the hat. It costs $30 (USD) and possibly your free will.

LEGO opened Cuusoo to let fans pitch ideas for play sets. But if you have a 3D printer, you don’t have to wait and beg for a minifig of your favorite character. Just do what Michael “Skimbal” Curry did and make the minifigs yourself. Skimbal even made his minifigs four times larger than the official LEGO citizens.
Skimbal started with a blank jumbo minifig and went wild from there. Although he hasn’t shared new models for about a month now, he already has several popular characters ready for you to download.
See that headcrab zombie minifig? Half-life 3 is a better bet than an official LEGO version of that. Or maybe not. I may be underestimating Valve Time. Print a browser then head to Thingiverse to download Skimbal’s minifig 3D models.

72Pins and artist Gabriel Leoni teamed up to give you a way to troll a Half-Life fan this Christmas. This NES cartridge has a game inside it, and it says “Half-Life 3″ on its cover. But it obviously doesn’t have the actual game, or even a NES demake of it. It’s kinda hard to demake something that hasn’t been made yet.
Crowbar your piggy bank and order the cartridge from Steam 72Pins for $15 (USD).
