Hey guys and welcome to my review of Half-Life: Opposing Force
First off I'd like to say I will be rating the game on 3 things.
1.Graphics
2.Gameplay
3.Sound
Say goodbye to our old hero Gordan Freeman because our objective in this game is to kill him!
That's right! We are trying to kill Gordan Freeman.
Half-Life: Opposing Force features a single player campaign, and multi player with game modes such as
capture the flag, and team death match.
Also some new weapons, and new NPC's apart from Half-Life, and Half-Life: Blueshift.
The game starts off with you, Cpl. Adrian Shepherd, in the back of a VTOL helicopter with a squad of marines.
You're going in on a classified mission to clean up Black Mesa, a government funded science facility.
Of course by "clean up" I mean kill everything so no one can spill the beans.
Unfortunately your VTOL gets shot down by an enemy aircraft, and you black out quite a few times.
After fading in and out of reality, you find your self in a room with a couple dead marines and a
scientist trying to perform CPR on one of them.
From this point on you're trying to escape the facility.
The replay value for this game is relatively high.
Personally I've beat the game about 8 times since the game came out.
While there is some intense gun fights, there is also some pretty sweet cinematic moments.
For example, at one part in the game the floor all around you is getting blown up and you have to get to
higher ground because of rising acid below.
For a game that uses an engine from 1998, it's actually pretty good looking.
It's color schemes are vibrant and never to gritty looking.
Everything fits into place perfectly.
The sounds are great, though the quality isn't perfect the game is from the 90's after all,
The SFX are mostly recycled from Half-Life, excluding the new weapons.
All the characters have good voice acting, and the monsters sound great.
Last, the soundtrack is perfect and always plays at the right time.
I give this game the following ratings
Graphics: 9/10
Gameplay: 10/10
Sound: 9/10
Overall:9.5/10
