Sneaking on a rooftop at night and hearing the headcrabs scurrying up the drainpipes to attack you.  Still an unsurpassed horror/suspense experience in gaming IMO.

Yip - To date I think, nothing has come close to HalfLife game universe, in my view anyway. Its got something very unique about it, the atmosphere etc. 

I would really love if NETFLIX or other streamer picked up an option to actually make a series or a movie out of it. I would say it would attract a big audience

Have you tried Alien Isolation? A different genre of game to be sure, but it is really atmospheric.

I will keep an eye out for that one.  It certainly looks like a good one to play late at night when the cat jumps into my lap from the shadows. Starfield is still sucking down my gaming time lately.  It's not immersive, but I am a fan of a lot of Bethesda stuff.

Great games .. AND I have the actual tee-shirt to prove it also .. still wear it, got it in an actual boxed edition of Half Life way back

My fav game of all time. I have retail box versions of this, Opposing Force, Blue Shift and HL2. But I don't have a t-shirt. I'm envious :)

I think this was the first game I had ever played where I was an active participant in the introductory cut scene. It was amazing.

I bet you I would hate the end result, because they would approach it from the "how to squeeze as much money out of this as possible" mindset. Two rants about the current trend in movie/tv industry, which I found both interesting:

This one is a bit long-winded for my taste, but it raises some interesting points:
