I told my friend about the menu and he started the game up, closed it like 15 seconds later and messaged me “Ahh…it is as it should be.”

I love that literally all half-life fans are excited to have our original 1998 menu back after two decades of punishment

I tried getting the original version working just for the menu once, run it at native res with shaders etc, except the menu couldn’t upscale but the game could, was a nightmare.

omg i never thought i’d see that menu again. proustian recall of spindles of burned cds and the musical stylings of system of a down played way too loud on a friend’s car stereo as a long dormant neural network flares up and incrementally denatures via activation, now contaminated with the present context

Valve also released a documentary on Half-Life, interviewing the original team members and hearing their experiences from back then.
