Another simple arena/survial map. You fight against antlions and fast headcrabs with an AR2, both hand held and mounted

A very simple arena style map, reading this description will almost take the same time as playing the map!

A story based mod that leads you through a variety of interesting environments to your ultimate objective.

Escape the base, not much else to say really.

A demo for a now dead mod that allows you to play part of the second level.

“Gordon Freeman finds himself outside the entrance to an unknown part of the Black Mesa Facility… I know, it sounds awesome, right?

A weird level where you get jumped around various parts of a city, assuming you get past the Striders and Gunship. Good Luck.

Between PP and City17 I think that we have 99% of all SP maps and mods released, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some great maps and mods waiting to be found.

I can’t tell you much about this mod except that it is supposed to be a leak. There are some levels from the E3 demonstration and plenty of levels I haven’t seen before.

Escape from the prison. Apparently the map contains an Easter Egg.

Your helicopter was shot down near an airport. Find the plane and get out, then clean up the second airport.

A curfew locks down the city, but Gordon must go through a Combine Security building in order to get across town. Because the route Gordon must take takes him through a building controlled by the Combine, the mission does not go smoothly.

You play as Gordon again and your objective is pretty much the same as the original game: escape the base.

Yesterday I posted an old article called Cybergame Players Need Coaches Too!, in which I discussed skill acquisition when playing video games. I know many amongst you feel that just playing SP games is enough. However, I feel you are wrong and would like to try and convince you.

You and a small squad of rebels must fight of the attack waves of antlions and fast zombies.

This article was origianlly published 02 February 2005 and I have posted it on the frontpage again today for a number of reasons. Firstly, it’s connected with the next poll question and secondly because I felt it deserved more attention. Enjoy.

Find you way to the hostage and lead him to safety.

Work your way through a space station and find the portal to escape.
