  • Black Mesa: Xen Trailer Revealed, Release Almost a Year Away

    Black Mesa Xen has a new trailer
    The Black Mesa team finally released a trailer for the Xen portion of their long in-development game. As you may recall, Black Mesa was "released" in a rather incomplete stage. I say "released" because even though it was added to Steam back in May 2015, it's still listed as an "Early Access" title. I also say "released" because the entire Xen portion from the original Half-Life wasn't included.

    But it's now 2018 and we finally have our first actual trailer for the Xen component. The good news is that the developers say Xen alone will be a roughly six hour long experience. The bad news, and you should have seen this one coming, is that they don't expect to have Xen released the second quarter of 2019. Given the track record for this game and release dates, I would personally push that date into 2020.

    Development of Black Mesa began in 2004. It was released as a mod in 2012. It was then released to Steam in 2015. It may now finally be completed in 2019*.

        I'm very excited, i've played through Black Mesa once before and loved it, but i've been holding off playing it again till Xen comes out.

        by Shawn Zipay
        The full list of nominees for The Game Awards 2018 was passed along to us today. You can check all of that out below.

        You should know that The Game Awards will be held on Thursday, December 6 at the Microsoft Theater in LA at 9PM (ET). You can vote for your favorites right now at TheGameAwards.com, via Twitter Direct Message, Facebook Messenger, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and the official Game Awards Discord server.

        All of that seems really odd and they did not specify how to do any of that, but there you are. I even tried to ask my Google Home "how do I vote for The Game Awards" and it had no idea.

        You will be able to watch The Game Awards live on December 6 through YouTube, Twitch, Twitter, Facebook, Mixer, Steam TV, PlayStation 4, Xbox Live, IGN, GameSpot, Polygon, MLG, and Caffeine.tv. Believe it or not, there are actually even more places still not yet announced where you can watch it, especially if you live in China....

        by Shawn Zipay
        11 years and counting.

        The Black Mesa team has finally released a playable taste of the Xen levels that they have been working on for however long now. Actually, Black Mesa has been in development since 2008 after being announced in 2005. So, depending on how you look at it, it's been in some sort of development phase for anywhere between 11 and 14 years now.

        The mod version of Black Mesa did come out back in 2012. It wasn't until 2015 that an Early Access release of the...
