Half-Life is Valve's debut game from 1998. Alongside the single-player campaign it includes a multiplayer deathmatch mode that still has community servers today.
Servers run on Valve's Half-Life Dedicated Server software, which many classic GoldSrc mods also use. Communities often add custom maps and server plugins, so file access is the main thing to check.
What to compare
File access. Look for FTP or a file manager so you can add maps, plugins and config files.
Low resource needs. Half-Life needs very little memory, so compare price and CPU speed rather than large plans.
Slots and price. Hosts usually price by slots, so pick a plan that fits your expected player count.
Location. Pick a datacentre close to most of your players to keep ping low.
