History
Wasteland Half-Life was an ambitious and successful game mod for the original Half-Life. Released around the same time as Counter-Strike, Wasteland developed a cult status within the community and was fairly popular. Over the top action was cleverly mated with over the top artwork to create a complete game package. The Wastes for Half-Life came about as a result of team disputes over original work. New artwork was developed, and most portions of the game code was rewritten. Further public disputes however led to a release with mixed results. The Wastes: Source is the next iteration of this storied franchise, and the first on a completely new platform. Many of the same team members remain, under completely new management. Stay tuned for the latest chapter of this nail biting thriller!
