Poll: Best Expansion Pack

[mirror's edgy]

Too lazy to come up with new IP? Or make an actual sequel? I kid, expansion packs are the icing on the cake of a good franchise. I personally love Half Life: Opposing Force and Blue Shift, the little games following the original. Anyone else have a favorite runt from another franchise?

Broken Steel for Fallout 3 is probably the best in recent memory, but I'd also like to nominate Throne of Baal for Baldur's Gate 2 and Brood War for Starcraft.

Rockstar and Besthesda make some of the best DLC Undead Nightmare for RDR and the Ballad of Gay Tony (LATD was alright for a DLC but was nothing compared to BoGT). Then there is Mothership Zeta, Shivering Isles ect.

 

[repeating integers]

Either Halo 3: ODST (yes, it is an expansion, but it's a damn good one) or Dawn of War: Dark Crusade.

 

[baddude1337]

Gonna be a tie between Dark Crusade and the original Half Life expansions.

 

[loc978]

Total Annihilation: The Core Contingency... I'd been wanting a map editor for that game so bad at that point...

 

[Spencer Petersen]

Either Halo 3: ODST (yes, it is an expansion, but it's a damn good one) or Dawn of War: Dark Crusade.

I never thought 4 hours of content for 60 bucks was very good

 

[Loud Hawk]

World Of Warcraft Expansions?

Am I the only one that thinks they are pretty damn good.

See, I bought it way after release for cheap, so I never experienced the pricing problems.

I'm gonna have to go with The Shivering Isles and Undead Nightmare.

 

[Space Spoons]

Don't know if they count as expansions in the traditional sense, but I loved Borderlands' DLC. The main game left me craving more, and the four new adventures Gearbox released satisfied my need gloriously.

Dawn of Warark Crusade hands down!

That game was the first Dawn of War game and helped me get into RTSs and video games itself! Plus, it keeps getting better and better.

Here's proof

Haivng no prior knowledge of this mods existence, I am incredibly impressed! well done sir, well done indeeed.

Best add ons eh?
1.oppossing force! thats shit was amazing, play the half life story from the opposite view, with pimp ass weaponry Great success!
2. The sims livin it up/livin it large that pretty much cemented the empire that the sims franchise now possess's, simply by adding the Electric guitar!
3. Baldur's gate 2 TOB.. if ur a mage, by the end of this ur on such power rush its hard not to just destroy everythin.... because you can.
4. Hereoes III :complete adds so so so so so so much stuff, timeless game, made even more so!!!
5. Heroes V tribes of the east: see above

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Broken Steel for Fallout 3

Oh yes, that one, raising the rank level to thirty and not ending the game like Fallout 3 so rudely did.

Next is Half-Life: Opposing Force, which has so many new ideas and content that it shouldn't be given the title of an expansion.

 

[Danceofmasks]

Brood War

 

[BlumiereBleck]

All Oblivion ones.

 

[Googenstien]

Everquest 1's The Ruins of Kunark.. best MMO expansion ever

 

[s0m3th1ng]

Blizzard expansions pretty much set the standards everyone judges expansion packs on. Broodwar, Lord of Destruction, frozen throne. All very much worth the entry fee and added a lot to the original game.
