This guy plays Half-Life 1:Source, and provides a sort of 'interior monologue' for what our mute hero must be thinking on his first day at his new job. If he is really just blue-skying his way through this, then hats off to him for bringing some consistent funny to it!
Bonus points for not degenerating into lame junior-high antics, or getting cheap laughs for being meta about it (a.k.a. "Is this some kind of video game? I mean who designed this level?)

OH GOD WE'RE GONNA CRASH
is hilarious
You say this, and yet this is all it seems to be.
I think you're thinking about another video
Now there's a guy who can narrate.
Its only because of his Narration that Shawshank Redemption remains the best movie ever made
Now be fair, it's a pretty good movie in its own right.
Some parts are humorous, not really laugh out loud funny.
You included? :P
All jokes aside, what is a culture that has an abundance of funny people?
Jews.
Well, damn, you got me.
Which is especially ridiculous considering the infinitely superior Black Mesa will be free.
Steam / Bus Blog / Goozex Referral
Yeah I noticed that to, he switches between to internal monologue and talking to other people. Damn you Ray Ramano!
Seriously though, I didn't think this was as unfunny as some people are claiming.
EDIT: Actually I think this is pretty funny. I mean seriously, you try talking over half life for 10 minutes and see how well you do. Alot of his jokes fall flat but there is some gold there.
As Uselesswarrior pointed out, it's not as easy as it looks talking over a game for 10 minutes trying to be funny.
Morgan Freeman narrating anything makes it an instant purchase.
Well funny itself is a relative thing.
Considering it's free and not a big investment of time to watch, I'm surprised at HOW negative some people are being.
ITS SO AWFUL ITS MESMERIZING
Everybody is a critic. There are millions of people out there that will go mad with rage because that free fan-made movie was not as good as it could have been.
I may have been overly positive in my first post, but I found these movies to be entertaining and that was enough for me. I can easily understand that others did not, and this is too bad.
My favorite part is when the first hound eye teleported in, he just goes "no" and shoots it in the face, doesn't look funny written out, but it was all in the delivery.
The comment on the gravity formula was pretty funny too.
Goatse is also free and not a big investment of time to watch, but that doesn't entitle it to rave reviews.
I give this 1 chocolate-covered thumb down.
He put this up on the Internet in an obvious attempt to gain some recognition and amuse people. That doesn't make him immune to criticism and negative reviews. No one is saying the guy is a dick head, but if they don't like it, they're not going to pretend to just to be polite.
We're not talking about our grandma giving us a knitted sweater for christmas, where you have to pretend to like it. Fucking sweaters.
Man...this company is retarded."
I almost snapped and wrote a really angry reply to this until I managed to read through some of the bits I had missed. No, the fact that someone did something for free does not make him immune to negative reviews, certainly not. My opinion is merely that it is not unreasonable to go a bit easier on people and realise that stuff made with very limited resources by people with limited resources will rarely be great and might not suit your taste.
I am fine with people going "I thought that was pretty terrible, his voice annoyed me and I did not find the jokes funny."
"Yeah I watched like 3 minutes of this a while ago and then violently vomited blood, or closed the window or whatever. It's a blur. Crappiest video Let's Play ever." is a bit harsh though. Or maybe he is just trying to be edgy, or funny. In that case, -1/10, crappiest joke I have ever read, I wish I could go home to this forumer and kill his dog because reading his opinion of this internet movie has made me physically and mentally ill.
Also Concerned is pretty good. http://www.hlcomic.com/
