Timmeh writes "bit-tech.net has the worklog from a Half-Life 2 inspired case mod, as comissioned by Gabe Newell. The PC mod was done by the same guy that did the original Blackmesa case mod."

    Not to troll or anything, but am I the only one that finds this case mod incredibly ugly? I would be embarrased to have this in my room. I didn't read any of the technical details about it, so it may be fantastically well-done in that respect, but I could not bear to look at it long enough to do so.

    Case mods should be elegant and/or imaginative, not atrocious.

    Loved the old mod, but this one seemed like it tried to outdo it by simply adding more busywork. The metal "combine" things make the case look lobsided and, well, kind of ugly. There's an art to ugly, and adding more things is not the way to do it.
