Half-Life: Decay is an 
add-on included in the PlayStation 2 port of the first-person shooter computer game Half-Life, developed by Gearbox Software and published in 2001.
Like Gearbox's other expansion packs Opposing Force and Blue Shift, Decay returns to the setting and timeline of the original story, but with different player characters: two female colleagues of Dr. Gordon Freeman, Dr. Gina Cross and Dr. Colette Green. Dr. Gina Cross is the model for the Hazard Course hologram, and can be seen at a point in Blue Shift. Dr. Green is a new character invented for Decay.
Although Gearbox completed a PC port of the game, Decay was never released "due to powers beyond Gearbox's control". As such most Half-Life players never got a chance to play through it. Decay is also not available through Valve's Steam service. Decay is, however, being ported by fans, at http://decay.hl2source.com, for the Half-Life engine in 2006. If successful, they hope to remake it for Source Engine.
