Blue Shift gets it Half Right

bysmjwatts Aug 13, 2001
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Half-Life Gameplay, so playing is fun. A few good puzzles.
Cons Way too short and easy. Nothing new at all
Recommended it? No

To say Half-Life was a fun game is an understatement. Both multiplayer and single player games were intensely fun for me to play, so of course when a new Half-Life is released, it excites me. Blue Shift is one of those fun games, but it isn't very memorable, and has very little replay value.

You install it, BANG BANG BANG, then you beat it.

Pros Installation is pretty easy and secure! Whoopee-doo!
Cons Short, boring, easy, nothing new... all in a $30 promise! YAY!
Recommended it? No

Yes, the greatest action game that ever lived has planted its seeds. Half-life, the award winning PC Game First Person shooter about a science teleportation experiment gone wrong (most likely because one of them nutty scientists spilled their coffee all over the control panel is one of the most...

An Amalgamation Of Good And Bad

byeparker Jul 30, 2001

Pros Two excellent games, HD pack, low price ($29)
Cons Blue Shift isn't as well executed as Opposing Force
Recommended it? Yes

Overall Rating: 8/10

Good old Half-Life, it just refuses to die. With such various mods as Counter-Strike, Opposing Force, Action Half-Life, Opera Half-Life, and Team Fortress Classic, it's no wonder that Half-Life is among the most popular computer games of all time.

Blue Shift doesn't have enough meat for a Half-life lover.

Pros Great Graphics...Good Sound.
Cons Gameplay sucks...Not enough thrill for a Half-Life fanatic...Bad value....Controls suck.
Recommended it? No

Half-Life: Blue Shift is a disappointing addition to the Half Life series. The lack of new features and the shortness of the game make Blue Shift seem more like an add-on level than a legitimate sequel. The graphics upgrade package and the inclusion of Half-Life: Opposing Force may make the... Read full review »

Blue Shift: A Half Life Fanatic Ponders

bycrunchy Jul 24, 2001
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros It has the Half Life Engine Ties up the Half Life Story
Cons Disappointing arsenal, Too Short, Brainless Puzzles
Recommended it? Yes

In my life 3 thing are indisputable: Death, Taxes and the fact that Half Life rules. Half Life came out with the great (if not surreal) story line, Opposing Force pitched up and gave the story line some fire power from Hell and then came Counter Strike which allowed me to go to the mall and get...

Blasting A Few Bug-Eyed Monsters Will Surely Shift Your Blues

Pros Great Graphics. Excellent detail. Believable environment. Good, mindless fun. Opposing...
Cons A bit repetitive. No blood. No cosmetic damage possible (bullet-holes in walls)
Recommended it? Yes

Here is a day I thought would never come. Ever since the days of Doom I have been an avid hater of First Person Shooter (FPS) games. Sure, they were fun to pick up once and a while for a quick 15 minute bash with your mates, but the single player games tended to suck eggs and I just could never... Read full review »

Pros Graphics, Sound
Cons Nothing Really New To Talk About
Recommended it? Yes

Ever had one of those bad days where everything seemed to go wrong? How would you like it if aliens decided to take over the area in which you were the security over, and you had to go fix ALL the problems by yourself. Well that is what it is like in Half-Life: Blue Shift.

"Is That Bacon I Smell?"

18 Helpfuls 19 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Contains Opposing Force
Cons Way too short, nothing new, disappointing ending
Recommended it? No


Well, no, maybe not bacon, but perhaps something fishy. I knew something was wrong only a few minutes after installing Half Life: Blue Shift.

Following a similar trend that Red Storm tried with Rainbow Six: Covert Ops?offering a sub-standard add-on pack with a full game engine and... Read full review »

Not worth it

byXorg Jul 13, 2001
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Decent graphics, good sound
Cons A rip off, more of an episode than a complete $30 game!
Recommended it? No

Before you buy and spend good money on Blue Shift, please understand that you're not buying anything close to Half Life or Opposing Force. Any decent first person shooter gamer can waltz through this game in a long evening - there just isn't much to it! When the game was over, I kind of sat there... Read full review »
