Umm, are these expansions downloadable via 28.8k modem?

the stuff he mentioned are not expensions you get when you buy the bundle. When you buy those you get (aside from Half-life) counter strike (with a second CD KEY to use), opposing force (single player new story&weapons) and blue shift (single player game, same weapons but only those security guard would know how to use). you also get team fortress on it...
you can later download day of defeat (the older version had a great bot) and many other mods such as firearms, thenn one mod about American civil war... but those are multiplayer mods.
If you have 28.8kb Modem it will take a loooooong time to download the mods. when i still had that modem i just bought the bundle then i downloaded bots (only 1 or 2MB) and enjoyed in multiplayer mode on my own (LAN). plus i have 2 CD keys and i can now use both for play (or since i have a brother we could both play online).
If you can download the mods somewhere else later you can play it quite decently over the net (especially some mods) since half life had the network code well done. and with a few tweaks you can get quite low pings with normal modem.
bottom line i went for the package. and i would do it again if i "had to".
