Great news, friends, dedicated modders have finally restored Half-Life 2 to Valve's original vision. Freed from the fetters of 2004-era hardware, we can at last experience the genre-defining FPS classic as the good Lord intended: with every character replaced by a profoundly unlicensed Lego substitute.
Spotted by PCGamesN, the Lego Half-Life 2 Full Conversion mod (from author Not Dave or Daniel) does exactly what you'd expect something called the Lego Half-Life 2 Full Conversion mod to do, modelling a block-legged, claw-handed Lego alternative for every member of the game's cast. Gordon Freeman's HEV suit becomes a shiny paint job on his trapezoidal chest, Combine troops take on a shade of venomous yellow, and Dr. Wallace Breen—the game's chief antagonist—has been to Turkey for some hair plugs. So good for him.
