Half-Life Easter Eggs Found in Other Games

Ойындар

In todays video we take a look at the many Half-Life References found in other games, from GTA: San Andreas to TimeSplitters to Borderlands 3, Half-Life has been referenced in games for the past 16 years and so to mark Valves return to the series with Half-Life: Alyx (13yrs since their last installment) I thought it would be cool for us to take a look at some of the Easter Eggs that pay homage to the influential series.
Hope you Enjoy!

    Imagine being so iconic, that when someone just puts a crowbar in their game it is instantly a reference to half life. Good job valve.

    A game so beloved not only by it's players but also other developers. A game so iconic that every other developing studio tips their hats for every time. A game so timeless that no matter what day or age it is, it still remains relevant. Those are the only three words you need to describe Half Life, beloved, iconic and timeless. Shame that we'll never get to taste it again but maybe, just maybe, our grandchildren will and they would understand what we were talking about all those years. Thank you Valve.

    Lots of these "references" can be seen as such because they're - In a sci-fi / lab setting - Come with nods to "Freeman" - Specifically painted with red - Come with glasses It's not just because there's a crowbar, but because they actually allude to Half-Life But even still, it's just so iconic that you can honestly put even a rusty crowbar in any game and you'd probably still think of Half-Life, just because it's a crowbar, and it's in a video game. Half-Life has left such a mark in the video game industry that the crowbar and lambda symbol are basically synonymous with Half-Life.

    There's an often heavily over looked reference in Guild Wars 2. In a mission after deafting an Eye of Zhaitan, you have to reanimate the eye in able to see what it has seen shortly before its death (possibly also a reference to Wild Wild West). The Asura scientist and his assistant run through a start up phase extremely similar to the two scientists in HL1 going through their start up in the test chamber. When they are done, you have to press a button, much like Gordon.

    I spotted a Half-Life reference in the game Black Mesa. At one point, you go to another dimension called "Xen", which was also the name of the borderworld in Half-Life. When you arrive on Xen, there is an animation of you picking up a crowbar. There are also several references in Garry's Mod. Some of the spawnable NPC's have names of Half-Life characters, such as "kleiner" or "gman". There's also a chance of G-Man appearing on the main menu screen.
