15 Essential Half-Life 2 Mods You MUST Play

13. Get A Life

Developed by a team of French modders, Get A Life asks you to step out of the Half-Life universe and into the shoes of Alex Zemlinsky, an ordinary subway worker with a mysterious past who also happens to be suffering from leukaemia.

Playing as an ordinary man means you don't have typical superhuman/action-hero abilities so Get A Life employs a clever system where damage to different parts of your character's body results in more realistic side effects such as reduced mobility and visibility.

The game is a mixture of horror and action with zombies, horrific creatures, Government agents and even bullet time. With a story full of mystery and intrigue and over 11 hours of content, Get A Life is one of the most entertaining mods available for Half-Life 2.
