Even though you’ll revisit a few places from the original, it doesn’t feel in the least like recycled material, but rather gives off eerie feelings of deja-vu. Opposing Force flows naturally alongside the main storyline, allowing you to catch subtle glimpses of events and locations from the first game. The opening segment is every bit as creepy as that of Half-Life. Marine Adrian Shephard, now transferred to a special detachment known as the Hazardous Environment Combat Unit (HECU), and find yourself en-route to an undisclosed location via Osprey transport choppers when things suddenly go to hell. Opposing Force lets you to experiencing the Half-Life story through the perspective of one of the grunts sent in to contain the alien invasion at Black Mesa, the ultra-secret research facility from the original game. Not as creative as its source material, but a great add-on nonetheless.
