Named Game of the Year by over 50 publications, Valve's début title blends action and adventure with award-winning technology to create a frighteningly realistic world where players must think to survive. Also includes an exciting multiplayer mode that allows you to play against friends and enemies around the world.
This is one of those few hundred weird as hell Half-Life releases. This one in particular is interesting due to the inclusion of a standalone Team Fortress Classic client that actually could be updated (perhaps you can update it to be the same GoldSrc engine as 1.1.1.0). There's also a GOTY HTML advert with some alpha shots and of course a copy of Day One. Inside the TFC folder you can also find some interesting stuff like HTML generated scoreboards and so on. Neat stuff. Credit to Combine OverWiki for the Initial Encounter box image scan.
Wow nice find, was this sold in shops once like this Add-on Collection: Moddb.com
Well that CD and this one I both got off eBay. However, unlike that Add-ons CD, this was an official release from Valve/Sierra. So yes, this was somehow sold in stores. I don't know how Valve got away with selling half a game and a mod in a big box, but stranger game releases have happened (like the Doom Screensaver box).
The box looks neat though.
It does indeed.
I've searched this version for a while, thanks for the upload
is this compatible with steam?
No, it's a DRM free version of HL. Even if you add it as a custom game, problems tend to emerge from no where with DRM-free versions of Half-Life. I'm guessing Valve has something to do with it...
Oh. OK thanks anyway.
