Escape from City 17

So, apparently, there's going to be a live action film of Half-Life 2 by The Purchase Brothers as a low budget movie.

It actually looks great so far to me.

What's your thoughts/opinions on this?

i actully watched it this morning, and i have to say on a budget of 500$
it was pretty awesome.  very close to the game in my opinion.

oh good I for one was hopeing that there would be half life movie at some point thanks for the news Manic

appart from the alien characters etc I just hope there are some funny moments in it like science expirements going wrong and blowing up , gordon running around hitting and smashing things (and maybe some people ) with his crow bar oh and a bit of destruction here and there like smashing windows etc 

I loved those moments in the games they were so funny love to see some of those moments make it into the film.

The first part was pretty good... I felt like it was an exact recreation of City 17. They did a pretty good job for that budget. So my hats off to them.

wow this is unbelievable for a budget of 500 dollors

Wow just managed to watch the video and I have to say that this looks really good just like the second game amazing espeacially considering that it is a low budget film well done to the purchase brothers they get my vote              I just hope some of those moments that I mentioned above are in it as well if so this will be great

oh and does anyone happen to have any more info on this like a release date or if it will be on the cinema or a straight to dvd release please.

many thanks in advance

cheers

Very very nice. I only wish that Hollywood would do the same and stick to the roots of video games.
