What year did they start development on Half-Life?

They started 1998.

They started 1998.

Makes sense. Started development in 98 and released in 98. Valve are fast workers.

Ah, I misread. Sorry.

Ah, I misread. Sorry.

I know, I just like being sarcastic.

Anyone know then?

i didnt read it through but perhaps 1996 did it say?

I believe it was 1996. But I'm not 100% sure about it.

Thanks for your help guys.

Keep in mind that valve created a whole new game engine for hl2, as opposed to hl when all they had to do was make the game.

ANd they made 2 Expansions packs so that might might have taken a year or two.
