Listed by Gamespy as "The hottest action-packed modification, ever!"

 

 

 

The Specialists is a modification for Half Life (the original). Graphically, the game looks amazing, stretching the limit of the engine. The mod mirrors action movies such as "Face/Off" and "The Matrix" along with games such as "Hitman, Half Life, and CounterStrike."

 

 

 

The glory of the game is stunting, which prevents it from being "just another FPS." In this game, you can dive off of walls, do flips from high buildings and other tricks that give score bonuses if a kill is successful. The art here is to kill your opponents in the most stylish way possible. And with an arsenal of 22 amazing weapons (with various options allowing for 300 various customizations and thousands of weapons combinations) your opponents will not make that easy.

 

 

 

You can wield weapons ranging from a combat knife to an M60. Each weapon is balanced to suit various styles of play. Whether you snipe your targets from a distance or use the small-calibre Ruger Mk I like a surgeon, this mod is for you.

 

 

 

 

 

The new version (3.0) will be released within a month, but if you register an account at the forums, you might find yourself playing it sooner. The URL is http://www.specialistsmod.net.

 

 

 

I play fairly often, look for Barihawk in-game. And please, help them out if you download the special gift by posting bugs and other problems.

Here's a trailer.

 

 

 

Be warned that it has a goodly amount of blood in it (the game is based off of a few Tarentino movies as well) so be advised.

I asume the new release is still for Half-Life and not source?

Correct, but still brilliant. The gameplay would not work in the HL2 engine.
