Half life hints and half life cheats and hints
Reload.
Reload as often as you can because you never know if you are going to get into trouble and the extra rounds might just save your neck.
Don't Waste Bullets on Barnacles.
If you're stupid enough to blunder into the tongue of a Barnacle and it's not hanging too high, pull out your Crowbar to give it a good whacking just when it's on the verge of sucking you into its maw. Of course if this particular Barnacle happens to be two stories up, it might be best to blast it fast with your shotgun before your efforts are rewarded with a fatal plunge.
Lambda Core Spoiler.
Once you reach the Lambda Core, the fit is getting pretty close to hitting the shan. Maneuvering inside the Lambda Core is fairly straightforward. However, once you fire up the reactor you'll have to use a series of portals. Red herring warning! Use portal two, then portal four. Next go through portal seven. You'll have to be careful though, as each portal takes you higher up the reactor and a fall from this height will kill you.
Shoot Through Walls.
You'll get the Gauss Gun during the Questionable Ethics "chapter." Next to the Gluon Gun, the Gauss Gun is the best way to dispatch Alien Grunts. This weapon has one of the sweetest attributes around; it can shoot through walls. So if you know exactly where your enemies are, you can waste 'em before you encounter them face-to-face. The thicker the wall is, the longer you'll need to hold down the secondary fire button before releasing the blast. However, the Gauss Gun's ammo is limited, so use it sparingly.
Xen Healing.
Once you make it to the alien world of Xen, you won't have first aid stations to take care of your inevitable wounds. However, you'll find healing pools and stations that benefit both you and your alien foes. One such pool is filled with blue water--stand in it and your health will slowly regenerate back to 100. (They don't have anything like this at Black Mesa!) You'll also encounter a station that looks like a portal awash in a blue light. Stand in the light and, just like in the pool, your health will slowly be restored to 100.
Mounted Guns Can Help as Well as Hurt
The mounted guns don't care who they shoot. If you're being chased by an enemy, you can run past one of them fast, duck behind some cover, and let the guns peg your pursuer.
Tough Tentacles.
The first time you see one of these huge, three-headed beasts with a spear-like device on the end of each head rend a Scientist limb from limb, it's a sight that's hard to forget. So what's the best way to deal with a Tentacle? You'll remember that when you first saw one in the silo, the Security Guard warned you that the Tentacle could hear you. And do you remember the Hazard Course? Of course you do. In one segment, you learned how to use stealth mode by crouching. Rather than waste a bunch of ammo trying to kill the Tentacle (since it can't be done with anything in your arsenal anyway), just hold still for about 20 seconds. Once it can no longer hear you, this creep will chill and stop flailing about. At this point, simply crouch down and sneak past it. Or if you're too impatient for the wait-and-sneak approach, try distracting it by lobbing a grenade over it and then scampering for cover.
Nihilanth Spoiler.
Once you're in Nihilanth's room, blow up the three yellow triangles on the wall things; they allow him to recuperate. Shoot him a bunch of times until his head opens up. There are a couple of ways to kill him. Once his head is open, bounce up to various ledges and fire your weapons into his brain. To do it in style though, bounce directly into his head and bang on his brain point-blank with your crow bar.
Crouch before you fall off a building etc.
If you are constantly getting hurt jumping down from great heights, next time try doing it while holding the Crouch key. Hunkering down helps brace you for the fall and will prevent some of the damage. It's not going to help if you fall 100 stories, but in some situations it'll save you five or more hit points.

Half life hints and half life cheats and hints
Run Into an Ambush.
Commandos are very smart, and once your position has been compromised, it's on! Not only will they attack you in formation, but they'll also lob grenades at you. So don't sit still. The only way to survive an ambush is to run into it. Sure, the odds won't be great, but they're better than no chance at all.
See Underwater.
Switching to software mode should help you to see underwater. Remember to switch back after you have reached dry ground.
Get Cozy With the Security Guards.
Use Security Guards as backup. Get up real close to them, and press your Use key until they say something to the effect of, "You're right, we'll have a better chance together." Once they're following you, they'll engage Aliens and Commandos at will.
Gauss Jump.
You can use the powerful Gauss Gun to leap into the air. Charge up the Gauss Gun by pressing and holding the secondary fire key (default is the right mouse button), aim it at the ground, and then fire.
Never Sit Still.
In multi-player (and single-player in some areas), it's best to keep moving. It's always more difficult for an enemy to bring down a moving target, so zig from side to side and jump occasionally when dashing through open spaces to foil any lurking snipers.
Update Often.
Update your game regularly through Sierra Utilities, which will automatically detect your version and obtain the latest patch available. Go to Start/Programs/Sierra/Sierra Utilities to run the program.
Retreat With Teeth.
Learn to run backwards, so you can fire while you're being chased. After some practice, you'll learn how to keep moving even when you can't see where you're going. Some of the best deathmatch players are ones who have mastered this technique.
Content Control.
To tone down the violence for younger gamers, click the Configuration link from the Half-Life main menu, and then click Content control. Check the box in front of Activate content control and then enter a password twice. To turn off Content control, your password will be needed.
Use Med and HEV Stations Wisely.
The Medical and HEV Stations are vital locations, but their distinctive noises announce to everyone that you're standing still and vulnerable. Using one of these stations can be a guaranteed way to die on more crowded levels. You might as well hang a neon sign over your head that says "shoot me." When you use them, stand off to one side so you have maximum visibility of your surroundings. Even better, note the locations of the Med and Armor Packs and rely on them instead. Lurk around stations and wait until you hear them being activated to get the drop on an unsuspecting (and probably wounded) victim.
Master the Rocket Propelled Grenade.
The Rocket Propelled Grenade is a fun toy, but it requires a bit of finesse. Turn off the laser designator unless you enjoy announcing your presence with a bright red dot. With practice, you can fire the RPG, jump out from around a corner, switch on the laser designator, and paint your target to guide the missile in. When you're outdoors, try firing straight up before flicking on the laser and guiding the missile in like an artillery shell. This hides your position better, which would otherwise be easily indicated by the straight white-smoke trail.
