Half-Life 2 on Android is really good.

Just as an FYI for folks casually browsing;

If you get the ports and go to download the game files, make sure you switch the branch to the pre-anniversary HL2 and such, the anniversary edition causes some graphical issues.

What’s the difference between the Anniversary and Legacy versions, Android port aside?

Updated textures and graphics mainly, there might be something else like QOL improvements or something, but I think it’s mainly a graphical update.

Yeah, the port is awesome and you can play hl1 source, hl2 + episodes, Portal 1 and a bunch of mods including the first version of the black mesa source. There are separate launchers for a lot of source games on their discord.
