I started it because it's a fun idea. Trying to lighten up the community a bit. I have already planned some more parts to this competition which I have no intention of entering. But I thought for the first part I would do something that I can enjoy aswell.

I have older games planned, like Quake, Doom, Half-Life, Duke nukem etc... And I may even put some newer ones in.

As a start for everyone, some HUDs similliar to the ones from Half Life 2. I dont know if the shape is some kind of trademark, so use at you own risk. But thay are 100% made from scratch by me.

It would of been better if it was Half life 1 as this could be a interesting recreation of levels, but HL2 will do.

Oohh... nevermind, it ws a joke...
Anyway, what I was saying is, that if anyone enters a valid entry they will get 3dsmax, adobe photoshop CS(any version that they wish for, such as cs4.) which will include 9000 filters, and 10,000 brush's that are not defaults, and the valve collection pack on steam, which is alot of games.

eitherway I was joking about it =D
