Except that the team making it has changed so much about the game it's not even really going to be anything like Half-Life. They're using not one track from the original soundtrack. Altering weapons. Added new types of enemies. Changing level layouts. Adding and even removing entire map sections. They're even adding characters and changing the story.

Basically...it's not Half-Life HD. (and no, I don't consider much of what they're changing to be "improvements")

Actually they are using the original soundtrack and they are NOT changing the story. They said that they would cut the "On a Rail" Chapter a bit, which is boring btw. They are only adding characters which appear in the later half life games.The maplayout is not changed to a point where you cant see, that this is your old half life.

And they have a Wiki where you can view their "changes" to the half life game. They maplayout is not changed to a point where you cant see, that this is your old half life.

I'm sorry, but have you even perused their site? They're changing so much it's not at all going to be the same. (I point to you saying they're cutting the On a Rail chapter, yet you still say they're keeping it all the same)

Let's start with the level designs and the fact that they're cutting On a Rail. You may have found that section "boring", but not everyone did. In fact, I've known people that thought it was one of the best chapters. If one of these friends decides to play Black Mesa: Source, they'll be sorely disappointed as it won't be the Half-Life they remember.

Likewise, adding characters, even if they're supposedly from later Half-Life games, changes the story and atmosphere drastically. And, the second they start doing that is the second the story is no longer cannon and is rather just a fan retelling. Again, not the Half-Life we all remember.

Lastly, I'd like to address the soundtrack. You claim they're using the original soundtrack. Have you listened to the samples they have on their site? The only, and I do mean only, similarities these new tracks have to the old is their titles. They sound NOTHING like the old songs. Not even remotely close. Compare the original Surface Tension to the BMS teams version.

Now, I'm not saying Black Mesa: Source won't be a quality, fan-made version of Half-Life wherein they're telling their own story (though I question that assertion). But, "Half-Life HD" it's not.

{edit} I apologize, that came off as a bit confrontational. Not at all my intention. It's just too damn early in the morning on a Saturday and I didn't get @(*% for sleep last night. :/

Fallouts.From 1 to 2.Not just because the graphics sucks or anything, but because i can't run it on windows 7 and on TV.

 

[SalamanderJoe]

The Spyro the Dragon HD Trilogy. C'mon Insomniac you know you want to.

 

[crusha_aa]

I suppose every realy good old game.

But i have to mention X-Com: Ufo Defense/Ufo: Enemy Unknown. Simply because i played it for the first time last year and despite its extremely dated graphics i have spent like 100 hours completely addicted to it. It just feels way ahead of its time and easily holds up to any modern game today.

Would be nice for it to get an HD remake, just so any new gamers wouldnt be put off by its dated visuals.

Yes that was annoying, but I still consider it better than Oblivion.

i never played oblivion so i hold my judgement on that until i play it

 

[TheGuyWithThatHair]

Definatley the 'Thief' games. I'm fairly sure they can get the first 2 onto consoles

 

[imperialus]

X-Com.

That is all.

X-wing and Tie Fighter for sure, also Deus Ex, but please do NOT change the game mechanics, just improve graphics and speech.

Yes, please. The best part about X-Wing and TIE fighter was the fact that you had full control over your fighter. You had to reroute power when systems failed. Now imagine that while flying over a planet's surface. I'd buy that game.

Spoiler: Your wish is granted.

Actually it's a sequel but hey, I'm still getting it.

As for me, how about the Marathon trilogy. As Bungie's pre-Halo series, it actually had a much deeper plot. The problem was that you only got the plot by reading computer terminals. In 1994-'96 the idea of voice acting was pretty laughable, but if redone with a modern engine, you could have one exciting and thought provoking game.

EDIT: Oops, double post. Now how did that happen?
