Black Mesa is a fantastic and very long in the making remake of the first Half-Life, with the only problem with it being that it's missing Gearbox's excellent expansions. The good news is that modding team the HECU Collective are working on bringing Blue Shift to Black Mesa - and it's just released Chapter 2.
Black Mesa: Blue Shift began development following the cancellation of a similar mod in 2015, and just received its first release in March this year - consisting of Blue Shift's first chapter, which is basically just its tram-style intro. Chapter 2: Insecurity doesn't add any combat but allows players to explore Black Mesa and meet several members of the cast, including appearances by the G-Man and Gordon Freeman himself.
Anyone interested can download the mod direct from ModDB or through Steam Workshop. It's free, of course, although you'll need a copy of Black Mesa first. Included in the update along with Chapter 2 is a load of fixes and improvements to Chapter 1: Living Quarters Outbound, including extending the intro's ending by "a few minutes".
