  A great package, but it's suffocated by Steam.

  By crunchb3rry | Review Date: Sep 25, 2006 | PC

  This collection of Half-Life replaces the old Platinum collection (first and second edition). You get Half-Life and the expansions: Blue Shift and Opposing Force, where you play through the same scenario through the view... Read Full Review

What Gamespot Users have to say about Half-Life 1: Anthology

  Legendary games marred by sub-par presentation and a few glitches which range from amusing to intolerable.

  By Fusionmix | Review Date: May 20, 2011 | PC

  This is a review of this compilation only. Reviews of the individual titles will be posted separately from this. Pros: • Three Half-Life titles and a multiplayer mod in one box • Huge modding community means tons ... Read Full Review

  A review about Half-Life 1 Anthology, a game which includes the amazing Half-Life as well as some of it's expansions.

  By 60spaure | Review Date: Mar 21, 2009 | PC

  I have played this game two years ago, and I must say it's one of the best videogames I've played (after HL2, Far Cry, NOLFs). In Half-Life, you start the game as Dr. Gordan Freeman, a scientist working at BlackMesa r... Read Full Review

  Aged, but still a very BIG game!

  By SonOfSparda018 | Review Date: Jul 19, 2007 | PC

  I played through half-Life 2 before actually starting Half-Life. I thought that by doing this I wouldn't appreciate the now 'looking old' original Half-Life. I was wrong! I got the Half Life 1: Anthology from ebay a... Read Full Review

  The game is a masterpiece, but the review is meant for this package, thanks to Steam.

  By KingLim | Review Date: Jun 08, 2007 | PC

  All the single-player games including the expansions are fun and challenging to play accompanied with intriguing storylines, apart from Blueshift being a little far-fetched. The graphics are also enhanced to at least sui... Read Full Review

  Classic Half Life and the rests of its expansions come together in a family reunion!

  By Talbonius | Review Date: May 26, 2007 | PC

  For those of us who wanted Half Life 1 and all of its expansions in one package, it is presented in all of its glory. You receive Half Life, Opposing Force, Blue Shift , and Team Fortress Classic. But one has to get us... Read Full Review

  Best package ever!!!

  By mrking | Review Date: Mar 08, 2007 | PC

  Half-life is one of the biggest games ever. It sold in the millions and now its back plus its two official mods (Opposing Force and Blue Shift) and one of the best online games ever (Team Fortress Classic). GamePlay ... Read Full Review

  The closest game to achieve the title of "Best Ever" suffers from Steam conversion.

  By blackdamage | Review Date: Jan 10, 2007 | PC

  Well, anyone who's reading this review probably already knows about Half-Life. My favorite game among the hundreds I've played, and the one to which I keep returning. There is just so much to appreciate. The Opposing For... Read Full Review

  The expansions that give a wider perspective to the Half-Life Story

  By jlr2k8 | Review Date: Aug 09, 2006 | PC

  Though Blue Shift was much shorter than Opposing Force, both added a great variety to the Half-Life Series. In Opposing Force, the objective was to seek out Gordon Freeman, who was initially the protagonist in Half-Life ... Read Full Review

  A Must Play for all gamers!

  By sausn2002 | Review Date: Jun 03, 2006 | PC

  This is no doubt the most innovative PC game of all time. The success of its sequel is all because of this first installment. The game has been a landmark for its AI, scripted sequences, and interaction with objects ... Read Full Review

  A classic with very few faults to mention and the expansion included extends the already-good life of the game Immensely

  By CrazyChemist | Review Date: May 17, 2006 | PC

  Well, this was a good game wasn't it? Okay, my first real foray into the FPS genre, but what a journey! The graphics were smooth with very few glitches, with a good, rugged feel to the whole thing. The aliens were... Read Full Review
