Fair use rationale

Non-free media information and use rationale true for Half-Life: Blue Shift
Description	Promotional image displaying the upgrades given by the High Definition pack
Source	IGN
Article	Half-Life: Blue Shift
Portion used	The image is slightly cropped to remove a Dreamcast logo, which can potentially mislead readers as the article concerns a PC product. Care has been taken to avoid misrepresenting or tarnishing the intended image
Low resolution?	The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification. It is not, however, of a lower resolution than the original copy, but the original copy is of a sufficiently low resolution. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.
Purpose of use	As the High Definition pack was a key element of the product picked out by reviewers, a form of visual demonstration of exactly what the High Definition pack does is necessary for the article. The image is therefore used to assist in commentary on the game's higher quality models produced by the High Definition pack.
Replaceable?	No free equivalent of this image exists. Limited non-free replacements can be provided.
Other information	Use of this image in the following articles complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.
