Half-Life fans are a dedicated bunch. Even in the absence of content from Valve , the series has thrived with mods, community content, and unofficial games such as Lambda Wars and Black Mesa. Half-Life: Alyx didn’t fully reignite the torch, but it helped to keep the flame fans have managed to carry all these years flickering. There were community forums of like-minded individuals sharing each other’s work, news websites specifically catering to Valve fans after Episode 3 faded into obscurity, and then there was LambdaGeneration.
“I came up with the idea in 2015. I could see how traditional blogs like ours were struggling as people moved to social media. The idea was to make something easy to use and run by the community. We’d seen others get their own dedicated apps and platforms like Doom with the Slayers Club and Star Wars with the Jedi Council Forums. We also love the idea of making a modern version of Planet Half-Life, which was a popular community-oriented fansite back in the day. We want to fill the void that is left.”
Ryona ambles alone down a dark alley. The shadows around her begin to shift and swirl, and from behind her emerges a cacophony of otherworldly cracking, oozing, and groaning. She turns on a dime, with only a kitchen utensil to defend herself , to be greeted with what can only be described as a sentient orifice with writhing limbs haphazardly connected to its bleeding torso. It twitches and seizes like nothing in nat
However, with this most recent release, it’s easy to wonder – where will the series go next? At first blush, it might seem like the games are exhausting their possibilities when it comes to genre. But have no fear! We’re here with some salient ideas of how Senran Kagura can tap into the hottest industry trends to bring its unique brand of titillating action to an even broader audience! Let’s strip down and get right into
Currently, there is no way to financially support the self-funded fan-site, but there are plans to potentially open a Patreon in the future. LambdaGeneration seems like the inevitable next step in this saga, a hot-spot for Half-Life devotees to enjoy.

Karambits are one of the most iconic knives in gaming, thanks to CS:GO. The Karambit was one of the five knives first introduced in The Arms Deal update. The Karambit is easily recognizable, thanks to its signature curved shape. It is also unique because the blade is positioned to the right of the default view model instead of the left like every other knife (besides the Tal
Naturally, combining the two would only go well. Imagine selecting your hero from the lineup of approximately 10,000 girls in the Senran Kagura series, then picking a lane and farming faceless delinquents alone while your team yells at you to actually contribute to the game. Imagine a base that isn’t a towering ancient, but a giant anime girl whose clothes fly off the more damage you do to her. Imagine how many hats you could buy, except instead of giving your hero more clothing, it just disrobes them even more. It sells its
The first two points quite literally seem to indicate that more money spent in game on cosmetics translating to being more trustworthy. Perhaps there is some truth to this, as spending real money in a game may dissuade a user from cheating and risking the lose of an account, but it still seems odd without confirmation of that i
The sophisticated young women of Senran Kagura already have experiences with guns, too, having cut their teeth on the high-stakes water gun matches of Peach Beach Splash . Really, replace the water and bikinis with metal and tactical vests, and it’s basically the same th
On its launch in 2015, Rainbow Six Siege had 20 unlockable operators for players to choose from, and a small pool of maps. Now, seven years later, the game sports 63 playable operators and 21 maps. Rainbow Six Siege was already difficult for new players thanks to its large maps, destructibility, and layered strategy that requires good team play and communication. Now, with 63 operators and a massive player base, new players are often completely overwhel
Originally released in 2012, counter-strike 2 Trade ban: Global Offensive has built a massive Esports scene and has thousands of players online at any given time. For better or worse, it defined the childhoods of many modern gamers. Players cannot aim down sights, and the guns have set spray patterns rather than varying degrees of recoil. This creates a noticeable skill gap between newcomers and veterans, but what’s worse is the commun
With the release of this week’s Senran Kagura: Peach Ball , Marvelous’ stalwart franchise has crossed over into the world of pinball. This is far from the first time the brawler has switched genres, though. From rhythmic cooking to cutthroat water gun fights, the upstanding young women of Hanzo National Academy are truly Jills of All Tra
The competitive multiplayer game market spans nearly every genre, from shooters like Call of Duty to puzzle games like Tetris 99 . Games like Fortnite and Mario Kart pride themselves on being accessible and fun for people of all ages and skill levels. They’re easy to get into, and often simple to pick up and gain basic mastery. However, many games in this massive genre suffer from the oppos
