Once upon a time I bought a game called blue shift. It is a half life mod, but its retail status is as legitimate as Halo: Combat Evolved. I'll tell you about that another time. We are discussing blue shift right now.

Most of you who played this tiny little mod must be familiar with how tiny it was. I'm saying about five or six chapters tops. And you wonder if it was really worth your money. Because azure sheep is not only free, features new code and monsters, and weapons too, but much, much longer than blue shift. (Blue shift features no new content, some custom generic models, and offers a high definition pack in which the M9 has 17 bullets per clip and the colt M4 has 50 bullets per clip. If that makes sense at all.)

And this was the reason why I lent my blue shift CD to a taiwanese bakery owner's son (twenty or thirty years old) some 5 or 6 years ago. Then later I heard that they moved back to Taiwan. What. The. F.

So now, I can't ever play blue shift any more. Not that it wasn't that great to begin with, but it is kinda sad to lose one mod of the higher end of the half-life mod scale (needless to say, a good amount of mods are either not very good or not very long, but most are lacking in new content. Blue shift at least has custom sounds, models, etc.) But that was then.

Ever since 2muchvideogames played tf2 on steam for a few measly days, he figured that steam may have more to offer than lagginess. And he has definitely stopped using his old, 17GB computer that you all may be familiar with. So one day I stumbled across the old blue shift CD case and blah blah blah, you all know where this story is going.

Okay enough writing, time for 2muchvideogames to do his thing.
