Tonight I shall be continuing my weekly game of Half-Life 2: Update and Rocket League online with the community! Join me at 8PM UTC.

Our Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/gamingonlinux

Time until I start:
2017-02-11 20:00:00


I decided a few weeks ago to finally do a complete playthrough of Half-Life 2, so I am using the slightly updated version Half-Life 2: Update, which has nicer lighting and a few other graphical changes.

Once I've done a bit of that, it will be Rocket League with the community again so come join the fun. It's always a good laugh! Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Unfortunately I'm almost never able to join the livestream for various reasons and won't be able to join this time as well. But I'm interested in you opinion Liam regarding Half-Life 2 and also your history with Half-Life franchise. Did you play first one through? If so - when did you do it? Why haven't you finish Half-Life 2 before? What do you think about Half-Life one? What do you think about Half Life 2?
I look forward for the answers and whish you great livestream!

In case you didn't know @wojtek88, you can watch videos of recent livestreams on twitch if you're interested. Not the same thing as viewing them live, but better than nothing.

I had never finished even the first Half-Life until it came to Linux!

Fun fact: When I was a Windows gamer the majority of it was Call of Duty with 2 or 3 others, Linux gaming change me, it opened my eyes to a world of different genres!

Half-Life 2 so far seems better in every way to Half-Life, even better with this free graphical update standalone mod of it! :)

Oh man, Half-Life is what got me back into gaming. I played a bit of Half-Life when I was at school, but never had a chance to finish it. Didn't think I ever will. When it was released for Linux, I was like shut up and take my money!

I played through Half-Life, Blue Shift, Opposing Force, and Half-Life 2, and loved all of it. Half-Life: Source is also good stuff, but not really essential. Good time, good times.

He obviously won't forget. He kept saying he hates visual novels, but the lady doth protest too much, methinks. Probably has another account for the anime pron.
