What’s more, in a day of 3D accelerator games only, Half-Life is one of the rare titles around that doesn’t require a graphics card of some type, making this game accessible to full PC audience.

There is but one snag when playing Opposing Force, you must have the original Half-Life in order to play it. If you don’t have the original, then you should buy them both; it’s that good. New to opposing force, there are fifteen all-new multi-player levels, in which you may compete against up to 31 other Internet ready players. Half-Life opposing force is a fantastic expansion to a lovely, polished and complete game. Enjoy!
