Half-Life review
Posted by @ 5:38 AM, EST
We added a review of Sierra’s first-person shooter, Half-Life:

The environments have a variety of textures and design is tight. What really sets this game apart from other FPS titles is how the special effects bring the environments and action to a an all time high. Metallic and glass surfaces, translucent water, energy beams and forcefields that fade in and out are just a few examples. The character design, which was impressive on the PC, has been updated with four times the polygonal detail of the PC version. This includes retouched character textures, animation and facial expressions. What is really noticeable is the skeletal animation system which gives realistic movement. Even enemy design, animation and presence is delicious throughout the game.
