Half-Life is a first person shooter developed by Valve Corporation. At the time of its release on PCs it was seen as groundbreaking, and still ranks as one of the highest rated PC games of all time.
The game was due to be ported to the Sega Dreamcast by Gearbox Software in a move that was much anticpated by Sega fans. However, a last minute decision saw the game be cancelled, despite playable (and finished) builds being showcased at trade shows and in magazine publications.
