Really like Half Life and want something to do?

Download and watch this guy beat Half Life in 57 minutes! I had no idea you could do some of the jumps and shortcuts he did.
You could say he is a dedicated fan. ![]()

Maximum respek. Man, what would I do if I had so much spare time...

How do people have this much time? I guess lack of life etc? Hell I wouldn''t even take the time required to DL the file much less watch or make one
WOW: Bounce
So, any of you old school HL fans watch it yet? If you did, can you believe the routes and jumps this guy made?

It''s amazing how much time you have when your not married
Man, that''s freaking awesome. I think it took me 18 hours or something to beat Half Life (of course, I was intent on taking my time and squeezing every drop of gameplay out of the damn thing, but still, 57 minutes? Man!).

Isn''t this sorta like having a steak eating contest? Actually that sounds pretty cool, I guess it is like a steak eating contest

Didn''t something like this come up before, and it turned out to be combination of hacking, editing, and lots of redoing?
Maybe but this is legit.

If you define ""legit"" as ""lots of redoing"", yes

Of course in practicing you would. But this video is 0 deaths straight to the end. Pretty amazing.

Well, if this was the person''s first try at playing Half Life, they would be some kind of godly gaming entity, striking fear in the hearts of six hour game developer everywhere, so I think practice is mos def permissable here.

I swear there are a couple of instances where he goes from having no ammo to suddenly having plenty...
I saw that he mentions those instances specifically as being a problem with the demo recording. That seems odd.

What I liked the most:
That you could stack and stand on the trip-mines.
How he was faster than the scripting sometimes and enemies took like 5 seconds to react.
And definitely the part where you can skip the whole dam part where you have to kill the underwater creature. I wish I would have known about that back in the day.

Yeah, that was awesome. I love the fact that he completely skips the dam. WTF.
And how quickly he gets into/through the (blast pit|tripmine building|lambda core). Amazing.
