First person walk through
Knowing just enough about video games to know that Wolfenstein 3D was the 1st first person shooter game, I can understand the intrigue here a little bit. But this video is great on many levels. Digitally Disturbed Environments posts what they call an architectual visualization by a Half Life user known as Kasperg. They have produced a model of Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Waters in the Half Life Source Engine. There have been some great comments such as, "I keep having dreams about something like this being done for places that no longer exist, like, the 1893 Chicago World's Fair or the 1939 World's Fair -- places that were built to be destroyed." The best one comes from BLDGBLOG, "[architectual students] armed to the teeth, [could] defend 100,000 acres of pristine Colorado wilderness from an architecturally unimaginative suburban housing boom..." It does inspire the next level of looking at building plans.
