Black Mesa mod for Half-Life 2

Dude, just play HL1 with all the nerdy HD enhancements because this will undoubtedly disappoint. It is a remake after all.

Why exactly does it have to disappoint? It's already fulfilled it's goal, to recreate one of the most iconic FPS' in history in a newer engine.

They couldn't directly, although, as has happened in the past with Gunman Chronicles, Valve could greenlight publishing the mod as a stand alone game via another interested game developer. However, since this is much more directly tied into the original Half Life, I don't see that happening. Valve would want to publish it themselves either as a standalone or as a boxed bonus with another Valve game. The likelihood of that happening is directly related to how good this mod will be. If it's of the quality you expect from a published game, both in length and content, that likelihood is high. You'd also have to take into account the creators of the mod and what their goals are for the future. If they're entering the job market as adults and are pursuing a job in the gaming field....well, a published game would be a big deal on a job resume.

Dude just shut your frickin mouth.

You are obviously not a true game developer, all you seem to care about is making money.

You must work for EA.

Lets say that i would make a game: I would keep the price reasonable (lets say... 20-30€. 50-60€ would be for way larger games, and even then it would go for example to quality assurance group, which evidently rarely does it´s job well / at all.), and the support + possible new content are included in the price tag.
