I bought this game a few days ago along with the opposing force expansion and HD pack. All i have to say is ITS HELL GOOD AND BETTER THEN OPPOSING FORCE IF YOU DONT SELECT THE EASY SETTING AND PLAY IT FOR 3-4 HOURS THINKING YOUR A CHAMPION COS YOU PASSED A SHORT GAME ON A HELL EASY SETTING.

When i bought Blue Shift i was really happy. I installed and began to play. The game was really good except for the fact that it's 1/4 the length of half life and you hardly get any contact with other people besides the army. I would recomend that you buy this game but if you don't own the original Half life buy that first.

This game is almost exactly like the original half life, but ten hours shorter. The game starts out in a tram(sound familiar) and then all hell breaks loose down at black mesa for an unkown cause. Im sorry, but I do not think that the original half life is even that good, so when this expansion pack came out i was not that excited for it. Though I wasn't that enthusiastic I picked it up, and once i started playing I officially lost my taste for all half life games. Even a novice gamer could finish this game in a matter of 4-6 hours of casual playing. No complex puzzles, terrible sound, terrible graphics even with the new high definition pack, and way to much of the slide effect when walking. Overall this game is short and leaves gamers unfulfilled, though it does contain opposing force, i still feel the 30 dollar price tag is way to much for a game with uncountable faults.
wheres the rest of the game

Ok, the game was good and gave you more info on what happened at Black Mesa , but wheres the rest of the game . The first two were long and had differen't bosses and stuff . This seemed to be thrown together pretty fast .They should take more time next time and make a longer game . But it was still fun!!

Half-Life BlueShift... Great game, but it is to short. I thought this game was suspensful, full of action, and it has this great weapons pack. The first day I got BlueShift, I got through about 3/4 of the game after about 3 hours of playing. I was thinking how great this expansion pack was when I then realized that I had only been playing for 3 hours and I was already in Xen?!?!?!
The original Half-Life took me more like 3 weeks to get to Xen!!!
I was already pretty good at Half-Life, but it still took 3 weeks!!! 3 weeks, 3 hours...theres something wrong with that. The ending is very good and is suprising what happens right before it's over, but I still wish they had one final boss like the other 2. I would give this game a 5, but because there is no final boss and it is EXTREMELY short(and I though Opposing Force was short), I have to give it a 3. I would still buy products from Sierra and Valve in the future, but I wish they make their games A LOT longer. I would only recommend buying BlueShift if you already don't have Opposing Force and you really want to know what happens. If you already have Opposing Force, I recommend you borrow BlueShift from a friend because it really ins't worth the money.
More Half-Life w/ a shiny new polish

Half-Life blueshift, first of all i would like to say that yes, it is more half life fun w/ new gaming experiances. With the HD pack the game looks great. But, there are some things that i was dissapointed in this. First of all, its much to easy, and its incredible short. It took less than 5 hours to beat this.(one night). Is it worth paying around 30? no. I suggest if your a big half-life fan buy it now, unless you can wait for the price to come down at least 10$$. I hope this helped u
It's a Bust!!!

i generally liked the game, but it seemed to be much to short. very easy too. not as challenging as opposing force or half-life.
