It's been over ten years since Valve's Half-Life released on PC and changed FPS gaming forever. In 2009, the fan-made Black Mesa Source will do more than just revisit the classic Valve game. From the looks of this newly released trailer, Black Mesa Source will reimagine the game with modern tech and modern production values.

The spirit of Black Mesa Source is so true to the original. However, we're stunned by the ambitious goals for this project. The new character models and textures used in this Source Engine-powered mod urge us to give them money. The addition of multiplayer modes, such as co-op, make us think Valve will downright buy the team (if they haven't already!).

Black Mesa Source won't require Half-Life: Source to play. So long as you have any Source Engine game on your PC, you'll be able to download and play this amazing total conversion when it comes out.
