Is it opposite day or something?

I've already played HL and both expansions, but I never finished Black Mesa, so I think I'll go back to that.

That one was a pleasant surprise for me. The anime series-like structure, the insanely over the top moments, the weird but fun gameplay, it all came together really well and I had a ton of fun with it. It took me a while to get into it at first, but after that it was cool journey all the way to the ...

I can't get past the 3rd mission, can't kill them off before they destroy the Claw

I ended up losing that first Brimstone mission, but I've won the other two and still went on to Kurasawa. The first mission wasn't so hard. The dreaded mission two I lost, and the third one too.

People talk about perfect emulation, but I encountered nothing but problems, from the mouse support (ever a...

Tried what you said about the mouse sensitivity and it worked, it's much easier to navigate through the Claw now.

I think I'll put some more time into it, see if I can at least beat the first mission.
