Today is a historic day in the world of gaming, because exactly 10 years ago on the 19th of November (1998) Half-Life 1 was released. I was a young kid back then, but I still have so many great memories about my first gaming experiences that were HL1 and its respected mods; vague but sweet memories. When my brother first gave me the chance to let me play HL1 and CS/TFC I was instantly hooked. Especially TFC got me hooked, but also notable mods like Firearms and Vampire Slayer.

Anyways, I would just like to thank Valve for making such a great game.
I'll quit now before my nostalgic feelings truelly take over!

Ah, the memories.
The first 3 Half-Life mods I played were Counter-Strike, WantedHL and Absolute Redemption, and they are still some of my favourites.

Happy Birthday HL, and Kudos to Valve. Especially for releasing all the programs and files that made Mods such as CS, TFC and USS Darkstar Possible, as well as being the most supportive to the Mapping/Modding comunity... :D
