If you’ve got Half-Life 2 and Garry’s Mod you should really go and download this free mod called Elevator: Source. It’s about being stuck in an elevator with strangers. Internet strangers. And the elevator can take you anywhere.
That really is it. It’s like Chatroulette meets Half-Life. You’ll end up in an elevator with….well, freaks, and when the doors open, you could be anywhere.
Get it at the link below.

It’s actually really great if dont have an extremely narrow focus when it comes to video games.

Tuesday, January 17, 2012 at 4:59 PMIt seems like the kind of fun you’d find in any Garry’s Mod server. Lighten up, eh?

Tuesday, January 17, 2012 at 9:05 PMDepending on what he meant I could agree, while it may be interesting to experience (not sure play is the right word) and is certainly a novel concept, this video is all kinds of boring after 5 minutes, just reminds me of sitting in vent while playing wow and not in a raid.

Tuesday, January 17, 2012 at 4:35 PMOne of the YouTube commenters called it a Mass Effect Ripoff. I lol’d so hard.
Anyway, I feel like getting HL2:Ep2 just to play this :P

Thursday, January 19, 2012 at 5:43 AMI downloaded this last night after seeing this article and I probably spent an hour at least just sitting in that elevator and waiting to see what happened next.
I made some friends, rode the elevator, and watched some friends die or disappear under terrifying circumstances before meeting new friends and trying not to make eye contact when they asked me about the pile of fleshless bones lying in a heap in the corner of the elevator.
Great stuff :)
