HALF LIFE 1 ENEMIES SERIES

Physically, the Nihilanth resembles a gigantic, oddly-proportioned fetus with its head bigger than the rest of the body, and its brain cavity forming most of the head's bulk. Hovering silently in an enormous cavern, it has been commanding the forces of Xen and holding open a dimensional rift connecting Xen to Earth, enabling its creatures to attack. In the game, the Nihilanth is the controlling intelligence behind the invasion of Earth. The Nihilanth is the primary antagonist and the final boss in Half-Life. However, this introduction scene was heavily cut down throughout development, and the Gargantuan is not in the final game.

In Half-Life 2: Raising the Bar, an early script for the beginning of Half-Life 2 mentions that 'something that resembles the old Gargantuan' was going to be seen from the train ride in the opening scene of the game. A Gargantuan also appears during the final sequence of the Half-Life demo, Uplink, where it kills several Black Mesa personnel before slowly heading towards the cornered player, at which point the demo ends. In the Opposing Force expansion, a Gargantuan can be seen in the chapter 'Foxtrot Uniform' tied up on top of the hydroelectric dam, while marines and Race X Shock Troopers fight around and against it. Gargantuans can be seen in Half-Life in the chapters 'Power Up', 'Surface Tension', 'Interloper', and 'Nihilanth'. However, each Vortigaunt has three arms (two at the shoulders and one jutting from the chest) while the Gargantuan has four arms (two at the shoulder position and two spiked arms at the abdomen). They share some physical characteristics with Vortigaunts, such as their backwards-jointed legs and hoofed feet. Gargantuans can be found on Xen, though their true origin is unknown. Gargantuans are very determined pursuers, and wait patiently for their target to come out of an area they cannot reach for a considerable amount of time before moving on to do something else. The Gargantuan moves fast and is very strong: it can smash or toss large obstacles from its path with ease. This shock wave, which appears as a red dot that shoots red sparks behind it, increases in speed as it travels and can traverse vertical structures. It can also send a shock wave towards its opponents by powerfully stomping the ground. An example of the loud roars is in Uplink, near the ending sequence before the player gets trapped, the creature's loud roar made a vent collapse and the player is forced to go through and the next roar causes the vent to fall on to the platform the player gets stuck at in the start of the ending sequence. Gargantuans can make loud roars that can damage structures. Though the flamethrower weapon is short-ranged, it is still effective, known to blow up machinery, as in Half-Life: Uplink. These claw weapons are designed to open vertically, not horizontally. In place of hands, it has two claw-like appendages which can be opened to emit jets of intense heat. The Gargantuan, nicknamed 'Garg', is mostly blue in color, has a crocodile-like head, a thick back plating which resembles an armadillo, and has one yellow eye that glows red when it perceives a hostile unit.

The complexity of the creatures progresses as the gamer advances through the game. The game's setting and use of characters was influential within the gaming industry, with The New York Times writing that with the innovative storyline 'Half-Life became the Citizen Kane of the genre.' In Maximum PC's review of the original game the monster design was given a rating of 'excellent'.
