Remember that game where you use to be a first person shooter with all the high strung levels and adversaries in tow. Well Valve Software the maker of the Half Life platform has released a trailer on what could be the pre-cursor for a full length movie in the making. Entitled I’m the Freeman, it was originally created by Valve’s Computer Graphics guru Mark Spitoni. Well if you’re going to make a big film about the concept of Half Life might as well take the cue from the original creators and that is the reason why the majority of the fans are sitting on the edge of their seats waiting and hoping.
The trailer is as impressive as the real work of Spitoni and it shows the potential of Valve productions as being responsible enough to make Half Life a reality on the big screen. Hopefully someone will take it as a signal and producers can get some kind of motivation to finance such a film. Unfortunately this is where Spitoni ends his creativity as he can only produced a short trailer out of it. Doing some magnitude of a two hour film is too much for a lone CG master to take.
I’ll definitely watch it if in case the a full movie is created out of the Half Life adventure. I can relive even the famous multi player video game Counterstrike if it becomes a reality. What so special about Half Life that everyone is anticipating even in theatres. Your usual first person shooter with all the weapons and ammo packs you can think of that makes all the levels exciting. Once in a while you will still hear someone shout “fire in the hole” . Everything about the game makes Half Life a wonderful adventure to begin and end with maybe a movie.
