Half-Life 2 (and 3D Dot Game Heroes!)

FPS Through the Ages brings out the big (gravity) guns! Join the HG101 gang as they discuss and rank a 2000s first-person shooter that brings forth the stunning innovation of chucking objects at an NPC's head. Then stick around for 3D Dot Game Heroes, a 2D-turned-3D Zelda clone that lets you create your own player character! This weekend's Patreon Bonus Get episode will be BULLETSTORM — a foul-mouthed first-person shooter that has Duke Nukem DLC for some reason! Donate at Patreon to get this bonus content and much, much more! Follow the show on Bluesky to get the latest and straightest dope. Check out what games we've already ranked on the Big Damn List, then nominate a game of your own via five-star review on Apple Podcasts! Take a screenshot and show it to us on our Discord server!
