Nightwatch reminds me of Blueshift, I loved BS so I know I will love NW. I played HL half dozen times completed, Opposing Force Half dozen times completed, BS half dozen times completed. I think there was another chapter, I can't remember the name, but I played that a few time also.
I love playing through the game from a different POV, new areas, more of the story behind Black Mesa told, each time you learn more and more.
Come on, who doesn't love saving the world again and again!

I've recently played an awesome mod, "Sweet Half-life", which is more about fun and nice action sequences (apatche in the tunnel... absolute pwnage) than nice level design, but still REALLY REALLY good. I would recommend you go get it.
Only problem is the official site appears to be down, and currently says that "Sweet HL should be ready for release in the next few days!!!" and is dated november 2002 <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
That, and the fact that some scripted sequences don't work, meaning that at one point it is nessesary to cheat in order to continue (scientist supposed to climb over a wall then use a retinal scanner; doesn't jump the wall). Oh, and you also need "map SHL1.bsp" in order to play the game even, since the map switch doesn't work between levels 0 and 1, but 0 is just opening credit's so you're not missing anything.
Other than that, go get it! It should keep you busy while you wait for NS 3.0/Night Watch, whichever comes first. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Sweet Half-Life is one of the best singleplayer mods ever made. Peace's Like Us- made earlier by the same guy- is pretty damn cool too. As for the buggered up scripted sequences, are you using HD models? They still work fine for me...
Oh, and as for Nightwatch? I followed this mod alongside the now departed DT. Those guys just rock, pure and simple. When it arrives, I'm going to force everybody on the SC forums to download it or face my nerdy wrath.
