The original 2003 shooter that set the series template: squad-based World War II set pieces where scripted allies shout over each other and the war feels like it is happening around you rather than to you alone. The scripting is also its age showing — allied AI mostly exists to point at objectives, and the Volga River section on the hardest difficulty is a notorious wall.

✓ Same family of tactical first-person shooters: shooter, first-person shooting and melee combat

≠ Its own twist: adventure storytelling, precision platforming and horror tension

A fan remake of Half-Life 1 that Valve eventually blessed, rebuilding every level in the Source engine and rewriting Xen entirely into something far better than the original. Combat feels modern. It is much longer than Half-Life was, and the expanded Xen chapters — the most praised part — also stretch the pacing well past the original's tight run.

Released 13 years after Medal of Honor: Vanguard.
