Black Mesa is one of the best video game remakes of all time! I've spent countless hours over the past decade, shooting my way through the Black Mesa Research Facility, and Xen. This game has come a long way from being a mod for Half-Life 2, to how it is today.

amazing remake but i would recommend to play the original before playing this remake as it will feel a lot better and you will notice all the great changes and additions to the game.

The best remake of all time. Not surprised considering the fact that it's a remake of the greatest video game of all time.

A must-play for all Half-Life fans (and even non-fans). Amazing game and awesome work from the devs. There are a few spots with some performance issues, but nothing major. Also the price on sale is a joke; get it.

Fantastic remake made by people who clearly love Half-Life. Do yourself a favor though: play this AFTER you play the original Half-Life. The remake is such a substantial update that it doesn't replace what it's remaking.
