Half-Life is an all-time basic of a first-person shooter. Home Alone is an all-time basic of a trap-the-burglar movie. So naturally, somebody has stepped to fill the plain hole by making a Home Alone-themed mod for Half-Life 2. Now, after a seven 12 months hiatus, the Half Alone mod is again on observe to lastly provide the gaming expertise Home Alone followers have been ready for.
It possibly shouldn’t be stunning that no Home Alone title has made our checklist of classic PC games. That’s solely partly as a result of there hasn’t been a PC Home Alone recreation.
The mod’s creator, meatball_lover, guarantees an correct adaptation. “While the official games were very liberal with the source material,” says meatball_lover, “this mod aims to be very faithful.” You’re doing God’s work right here, my buddy.
Look on the attention to detail. Look at Michael Jordan on a practice. We’re promised that the sport will probably be utilizing all authentic props, and progress already consists of firecrackers, a BB gun, Buzz’s tarantula, and brick weapon that the digicam follows finish over finish to its goal. It’s all simply so earnest.
Perhaps the official description of Half Alone says it higher than I ever might. “Feet pounding, heart hammering, you sprint along the corridor, the metal of the BB gun cold against your hand. Welcome to a minute in the life of Kevin McCallister.”
Sadly, Ubisoft haven’t taken us up on our idea for a Rainbow Six Siege plus Home Alone crossover, so Half Alone is perhaps the perfect we get. It’s apparently due for launch in 2018.
