Half-Life, Architecture, and Anime Girls
From 1998 to 2011, Koumei Satou (KS) created a series of maps and mods for Quake and Half-Life that embrace an unlikely fusion of first person shooter with surreal art, film, architecture, and, naturally, anime girls. I've been thinking about them nonstop for the last two years, so let's take an in-depth look at each one.
