Imo the best enjoyment to time ratio is:

1. Black Mesa (the Xen level at the end was redone and extended compared to in HL1 and it’s cool but if it starts to drag just move on)

2. HL2 (main game)

3. HL2: EP1 start it but maybe skip and watch a playthrough if you get bored

4. HL2: EP2

5. HL Alyx, if you can play it on a decent headset. DO NOT MOD IT TO PLAY IT WITH MOUSE/KB it will be extremely boring since it’s designed for VR

Have fun, there’s simply nothing else like Half-Life games

If you haven’t checked in years homestarrunner.com is pretty much fully functional again thanks to the Ruffle Project

Having recently played through Hifi Rush after the studio closed, it reads very differently when you know the characters who go up against Vandalay and Kale, the most corporate of corporations and evil CEO, are killed by a real life evil corporation.

This is great news and even makes playing through the 1st game more enjoyable knowing we’re (hopefully) getting more!
