    Phenomenal.
    Gearbox has literally outdone them self on this masterpiece of a game. With strikingly superior graphics for this games time and innovative story telling, this game honestly deserves a ten.
    I remember sitting,waiting for this game to be released at a young age after beating the first Half-Life.
    The story is fantastic, showing a different perspective. Instead of being the protagonist Gordon Freeman, you now take place as an antagonist known as Adrian Shepard. Moving on the the multi player, it is insanely fun. The excessive amount of explosions going on around you is an exciting add-on to this game. With servers still running eleven years later, this game is fantastic. Don't think that Opposing Force lacks a cooperative mode, because one Coop server is currently running with a maximum slot of 32 players per match.

    Overall, this game is a splendid masterpiece and I would recommend anyone buying. It's a ten dollars worth spending on a game such as this one.

    Adrian Shepard- i played this game when it first came out. Its been quite awhile and to remember the main characters name says it all.

For its time it was one of the best, and storyline and pacing blow away alot of what is out right now. This is a GREAT classic... Expand

It's a unique spin on the traditional add-on where you play through the original campaign path from the military's view point. Less box puzzles and more squad based combat make this a more straightforward shooter but still stands strong as a fantastic expansion. Expand

The only down side would be the teamates AI. It got a bit frustrating, but its an old game so it can be forgiven. The final boss fight was a bit underwhelming as well but it was still a fun one.

    Tiens mais c'est vrai, cette extension pour Half-Life était faite, enfin, bricolée par un certain Gearbox Software...! et donc déjà àTiens mais c'est vrai, cette extension pour Half-Life était faite, enfin, bricolée par un certain Gearbox Software...! et donc déjà à l'époque, ils faisaient de la meeeerde ! Quoi qu'il en soit, le jeu principal n'était pas exempt de lourdeurs dûes à son grand âge mais "Opposing Force" en rajoute quelques couches, juste au cas où...

    Cela étant, j'avais à peine essayé le machin à l'époque et ça m'avait déjà ennuyé... or en le re-commençant maintenant (d'ailleurs il fonctionne bien sur Win 7-64... en Direct3D ! pas en OpenGL par contre, c'est la soupe aux bugs...) j'ai trouvé ça encore plus lourdingue ! c'est plein de scripts pénibles et on ne sait jamais quoi faire à tel ou tel endroit... et j'aime pas tourner en rond ou les énigmes à la con, hein ! c'est un FPS ou un jeu de piste ? putain...

    J'oppose donc une fin de non-recevoir à cette vieille daube qui ira directement à la poubelle : "trash game" comme on dit de nos jours !
