Half Life remake Black Mesa is available now on Steam for monies

Black Mesa is a remake of the original Half Life in the (somewhat newer) Source engine. And it's on Steam now. And it costs money.

Selling a game for money isn't surprising, and in this case you are getting most of the single player campaign via Early Access in a form that isn't a broken mess. So that's a good thing. But Black Mesa was always envisaged as a free remake, not a paid for full game.In this case, it's a remake of a game from 17 years ago, using technology which first appeared all the way back in 2004. There's nothing about Black Mesa which could be described as cutting-edge, but it does represent the better part of a decade of work by an international team of modders and enthusiasts. Here's the trailer.
