Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.

Encountering a graphics bug isn't a big deal. But a big that makes the game impossible to play by blinding me with weird bright geometric shapes flashing across the screen? 4 hours into the game? during a platforming section? Yeah that's nuts. This is unfortunately a case where the negative reviews are correct. The original is much better and more stable.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 7: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Kind of Over-Hated, this game led to HLVRAI and Black Mesa being made, so...
It breaks my heart to negatively review a game from one of my favourite franchises. If you want to experience Half-Life, please do not play this game. Play the original one. That is infinitely better! This game breaks more things than it improved over the original. For example, the Tentacle monster do no damage to the player. So, a few sections where you do encounter them, they are not a threat, and you can just ignore and run past them. Half-Life: Source did improve on some visual aspects of the game -- but is that really enough to compensate for the rest? I don't think so. I frankly do not think that there was a justification for this -- other than Valve wanting to transfer the game to the Source engine. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the Source engine, but this feels like it was hastily done and poorly executed.
The only reason you should get this is if you want to have Half-Life 1 content on GMOD. Otherwise, it's a buggy mess. The only reason i play this is because i have the source mod that fixes every issue with the game. I will never play the vanilla version for no reason.
Now i know alot of pepole hate half life source beacuse of bugs but really the bugs aren't as bad as pepole say they are i never had really any problems with the game but i think it's rather than the game being bad it's people's computers and i think gets so much hate for it but enough about comparsions the actual game is fantasic with a good intresting story and never makes you feel forced to listen or do something which makes it so fun and the combat feels flashy and agian fun this one of the best games ever
It would have been good if it was not so buggy, it's half life but with 1000 bugs, please fix valve
It's literally just Half-Life but on Source. Nothing I can really say about it. It's not really that bad, in my opinion, but not really the most amazing. Also, this can be used for Gmod, which makes it a bit better.
Стоит покупать? - Только ради Garry's Mod, или колекции, других причин не вижу. Хотите поиграть в Half-Life? - Покупайте или Black Mesa, или Half-Life, (потом, рекомендую установить Half-Life Legacy от ребят из The Phoenix Project), но Half-Life: Source уж никак. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3619040/HalfLife_Legacy/
playing this over the original feels like i'm cheating on my wife
