I also think that Half-Life was the best game ever made, and I agree with PCGamer magazine that Opposing Force is also a great game! The graphics and storyline are really cool, and it is so much fun to play! Very worth it!

ABSOLUTLY FANTASTIC ! GREATEST GAME EVER CREATED

THIS IS THE GREATEST GAME EVER CREATED, I used to play Unreal,and dont get me wrong Unreal is great. But man this the Cream of the Crop. The Graphics are superb, The story line is well thought out and the Monsters are BAD TO THE BONE. My only complaint is it ended too soon. When I finished the game I was dissapointed I WANTED MORE. And still do I even searched the net hoping there were add on levels to the game but much to my Dismay there is not, I CANT WAIT TILL THE NEXT VERSION OF IT COMES OUT, Please hurry and create one. Thanks Impaitently waiting, Keith Owings

Very fun! Very exiting! Very Short.

Half-Life: Opposing Force is the greatest half-life add-on ever made. I actually had more fun playing this game then I did Half-Life. Actually, I truly think that Half-Life and Opposing Force are both equally fun. The story line is exellent and you feel like you are playing a horrific action movie. The only thing I did not like was the fact that it was very short. And there is no super jump like in Half-Life. Overall, it is an exellent game. If compared to the alien movies, it is like Aliens. I hiley recommend this game if you enjoyed Half-Life.

a good game

This is actually a very good expansion for Half-Life. usually expansions stink, but this one is quite acceptable. Opposing Force takes you back to Black Mesa a one of the US Marines trying to capture Gordon Freeman (play the first half life before purchasing this). There is an extroidanary arsenal of weapons in Opp. Force and challenging new aliens that do more damage. If you liked half-life, then buy this expansion pack cause its really good. I do have one complaint: I cannot play this sucker online! i have a 500mhz Pentium 2 (its old, but still reads the data) and i have cable modem/high speed connection and it says some file differs from a server file! oh well, you can play single player over and over because its so fun and addicting. have fun playing!

This game is truly the greatest add-on for half-life, other than CS. I wasn't too thrilled with being able to play "bob"(blue-shift), but I couldn't wait to play this. The army always bugged the s*** out of me, and I wanted to be them. But it wasn't exactly what I expected. They could have made this 3000 times better if they knew that the problem was going on, not being thrusted into the action like everyone else. I wanted to be able to neutralize the threat, and the facilitators. Not have them be our crutch. and, you dont get good ammo/weapons in the beginning. It's annoying! But I enjoyed this.

major Shephard. Experience Half-Life's Lambda Complex incident all over again through the eyes of major Shephard, part of a squad sent in to contain the chaos that has erupted in the Lambda Research Complex.
First, play Half-Life. Actually, this game won't even run without it so you don't have much of a choice.

Best, Scariest, and Coolest game eva!!!

This is by far the best Half-Life game I have ever played. Those zombies you see on Half-Life Game of the Year Edition, in this game you also see zombie security guards, zombie military guys, and some super powerful zombie that throughs burning blood at you and RUNS at you instead of walking. That is the freakiest part when they run at ya. Then there's the new species of aliens. There are 5 new aliens I've never seen before. They are, The two military zombies, a walking fish creature, an electrical beast (that you get a weapon from), and some new boss found when you're in the observation area later in the game. Another thing, I love the starting of the game, it is by far the most action packed starting ever. I highly recomend getting this game because you for one get to actually see Gordon Freemen enter the beam to the other world "DONT FOLLOW HIM IN, YOU WILL FALL TO YOUR DEATH!!", then theres the new music, the fact that you get new 5 star weapons, you get a Desert Eagle instead of a magnum, and new species of alien appear randomely. A few tips for you: The boss you fight in the Observation area is undefeatable. That damn Lawyer shows up in this one too, trapping you in several areas. You (I dont think) cant kill freeman. And something you MUST know in order to finish this game. never ever EVER turn around, if you do......well lets just say death doesn't like to be hugged.

Worth Buying

I would just about give this 5 stars. Great storyline again, great atmosphere (such as going though the pitch-black tunnels full of aliens), lots of great new weapons, aliens (tougher), puzzles, teamwork, etc. The only cons are that it doesn't run as nicely as Half-Life on your PC, it does stutter a bit. Also the AI is not as good. I mean really, how many times does the soldier have to repeat the same jokes/comments before you feel like shooting him? Sometimes they don't follow you where you want aswell. Anyway it's still a great game!

Best Half-life expansion
