If anyone of you know the following. Please answer.

 

Do I need Half Life Original for HL : Blue Shift?

What will it do?

 

Thanks

here is what i know:

No it's a standalone and includes Opposing Force in it

High Definition Pack is supposed to improve graphics (detail level, etc) but i did not notice much of an improvement although it still looks great

Next Question,

 

Is the original Half Life Included?

If you have HL and Opposing Force, don't get BS. It is too short for one, plus there is really nothing new in the gameplay.

Not trying to do any propoganda, but I put a review up on my website.

For those of you too lazy to scroll down any further, here it is:

Blue Shift is a bit disappointing. The HD pack is alright though, and the models do look a lot better for it.

 

The game play in BS is fairly plain. There are a few puzzles that took me a few minutes to figure out, but I finished it on Medium dificulty in about 5 hours.

 

We can only hope that some modders take the new entites in BS and create some good add-ons for it, otherwise there are likely to be a lot of hacked off customers.

Blueshift it alright, not a huge amount of new things - but a lot of cool gameplay all the same.

The HD pack is awesome, the new models are great.
