Half-Life: Blue Shift
In Half-Life, you were Gordon Freeman, scientist. In Opposing Force, you were Adrian Shepherd, marine. In Blue Shift, you're Barney Calhoun, rent-a-cop. All that remains is an alien point of view, which Gearbox Software ... Read Full Review

Tsk tsk tsk.
WEll this isn't the worst expansion ever made, but it is pretty average and basic. For one thing, it not only has half the original content of Half-life, but it adds nothing new to the franchise. For another, it lasts ... Read Full Review
