I had this idea a while back but I never even considered trying to put it together because it would require a shitload of coding and whatnot. My idea was to play as a headcrab...yeah that's right, the lowest level of Xen evil. The strategy of being a headcrab would be to find a host body and use it to fight the humans. For example, you arrive at Black Mesa and roam around in the ducts until you find a lowly security guard. You jump on his head and use his body for combat purposes. Having to play as a "zombie" would be cool i thought. You could zombify specific humans for specific needs. If you want to pack a little more punch, try a soldier, if you need to gain access to a door or computer, zombify a scientist and hack things up. When the host body dies, seek cover in ducts and other places where you could feed on dead stuff to regain health. It would be cool to see how it worked out. Just an idea!

I think there's already a game like that. It's called "Stubbs, the Zombie."

Stubbs is quite different to this idea. It would be fun to play a headcrab, though the fun would be quite short lived when you realise your as weak as mouldy turd.

Perhaps play as some "super" headcrab?

Yes, as a headcrab you would be very vulnerable but this is why you would have to find a host body to travel around with.

I thought on that once too. After you turn into a zombie you need to turn into a genome...

I like this idea, it always looked like a far away dream.

Dont do it! He is a Headcrab Killa!!!! :nuke:

But it sounds really good.. Then you got the choice: To be a Zombie and get powerful attacks :D

Or be a Fast zombie with its weird jump attack! :heart:

i would help out on a Headcrab mod. I, too, have had a thought or two about this idea.

Thats a MULTIPLAYER mod habboi. Were talkin SP here! Or...at least I was. Yeah not actually sure if that is still in the works though. I was thinking about HL1 as well. It would be cool to see in HL2 though. The idea of HL2 would ONLY work in multiplayer though because you could choose diff types of crabs. (lol) Like reg, fast, or poison. This wouldn't really work in SP.

OMFG - at the end of it the boss could be Gregori, how sick would that friggan be.
