The BEST PC game EVER! Comes to Dreamcast!

At the end of 1998 a new 1st person shooter came out, a revoulutionary game, it used an enhanced Quake 2 engine, it was incredibly violent, it had a load of interactive people and it was the first to have a storyline. That game was HALF-LIFE!

And what a game it was! Any of you to have played the PC version would know how great it was.


Anyone to have played Half-Life will know it has a great storyline, it was that which made Half-Life such a great one-player game. The Dreamcast version improves on the PC version with better graphics and has virtually everything enhanced, new character models and gun models have been made. Plus the game is bigger! Yes, bigger! The DC version of Half-Life has an exclusive new game included it's called "Blue Watch" which featues you as Barney, a security guard a bit like the ones you meet in the Black Mesa Research Facility and Barney is on his own mission to get out of the Black Mesa Complex alive. This section of the game is roughly 30% the size of the full game.

The original game was handled by Valve but for the Dreamcast Version they are working with Northern California-based Captivation Digital Labratories in conjunction with Gearbox Software (makers of PC add-on, Opposing Forces) to bring the PC classic to DC!

The character models have a higher polygon count than the PC version, there will also be dramatic lighting and special effects to showcase the power of the Dreamcast. The game will now be fresh and exciting for console gamers!
