The game is also extremely short, which is a blessing in my opinion because it's fucking terrible. The levels are long and tedious, and simply not fun to play. Instead of increasing your arsenal with cool new weapons, you actually get less weapons in this than the original Half-Life. In short, Blue Shift is everything shitty about Half-Life, and pratically the opposite of Opposing Force. Then, in 2001 they release Half Life: Blue Shift, which was a terrible game. Basically, the game was fucking awesome, and was released to critical success. There was a variety of great new weapons such as a desert eagle, sniper rifle, combat knife and a variety of alien weaponry and a ton of cool new enemies, you got to explore some extremely well designed new areas of Black Mesa, and you even got some useful friendly AI soldiers to follow you around and help you. You play as Corporal Shephard, a member of the military sent into Black Mesa to clean up the mess. OpFor was everything right about Half-Life. The first one, released in 1999 is Half Life: Opposing Force, which was an amazing game.

After Valve developed the phemoninally successful game Half-Life, they decided to let Gearbox Software develop two expansion packs for the PC. If you don't like it or are simply too distracted by the scanline to watch the LP then get the fuck out, I don't give a rat's ass what you think.Īnyways let me briefly explain what's the deal with the game. Anyways to answer the question I originally asked, I'm using a camcorder as a throwback to the way I used a video camera for that video. If you watched the one video I made for that thread you should be pretty familiar with how this LP is going to go down. I had a lot of fun making it, and always wanted to go back and revisit that thread in some way or another. There's a couple of things about this LP I figure I should probably go over, so let me start with the first question people who see the video are likely to ask: Why the fuck are you using a camcorder? Well, that coincides with another question I'd like to answer, why am I LPing Half-Life: Blue Shift in the first place? Well back in 2007 I did a parody LP of the original Half-Life. Welcome to the Blue Shift LP, or as I will pretty much exclusively be refering to it in the actual LP, Blue Shit. Introduction Let's Play Half-Life: Blue Shift
