The sound effects from the original Half-Life are burned into my brain after playing the game nearly every year since it came out back in 1998. So hearing these iconic sounds and voices inserted into famous scenes from classic 80s films creates a weird mix of nostalgia and humour. And surprisingly this mash-up actually works.https://develop.kotaku.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/16/pgroup-googlepublishercentre-kotbrandmark.png?quality=7510001080
