If something's good, it's good. Black Mesa, a mod for Half-Life 2 is apparently pretty good. It's won the Best Upcoming Mod of the Year - again. That's right, it picked up the same gong last year - suggesting either they've got a very vocal bunch of supporters, or it's actually pretty darn good. Perhaps to help decide which one it is, there's a new teaser trailer doing the rounds.
Now, in case you've been delightfully ignorant, some backstory:
A while ago, Valve promised Half-Life fans that, with the new developments to the Source engine, they'd release a remastered version of the original game. Everyone was pretty excited about this - until the project was scrapped. The general consensus seemed to be "if the fans want it, they can make it themselves".
...enter Black Mesa.
