macklin01 writes "Sep. 14 is red letter day: after 8 years of development, the third-party "Black Mesa" rewrite of Half-Life is finally going to be released. This re-writes the original Half-Life with the HalfLife2 Source engine, along with significant improvements to the graphics and soundtrack. While you're waiting, you can look at recent screenshots (and a few videos here and there, such as here) and download the soundtrack (and donate!) to whet your appetite. So go on: they're waiting for you in the test chamber, Gordon!"
