expansion packs are OK. I thought the expansion packs for hl1 like opposing force and blueshift were awsome. you got to see the same story through the eyes of a different character. They add a little more to the game until they release a sequal or whatever.

I like them, but rarely as much as the original game. They serve a purpose though - its better to get some third party (or a small internal team) to develop a stop gap addon pack while you make a "proper" sequel, than rush out a new but unpolished sequel after just a year or so. The Half-Life addons did the job right by following the same timeline and story from a different perspective, leaving the actual sequel to continue things on.

blueshift was the gayest thing ever you all know it

but, expansions for MMORPGs and such are usually great, to the fact that they usuaully unlock more quests, sometimes levels, monsters, equiptment and such that give more incentive to play

yes agree

theres needs to be an opposing force: source

BUT BUT BUT

i want it a continuation, I don't want a freakin remake of the original, that's boring. I'm tired seeing fucking remakes of maps/mods, they need new content. there should be a whole nother story!!

they're releasing an expansion pack for half-life 2, but its not like the exp packs for the original, instead its whats going to happen after the citadel explodes, which i think is total fucking bullshit. save the good stuff for half-life 3.
