Doesn't get any better October 13, 2008 The HL series is simply one of the best games you can play as a FPS. The Orange Box gives a great package for those who haven't played the ones prior to Episode 2. It's a complete set of HL2, Episode 1, Episode 2, Portal and Team Fortress.
The game looks beautiful and can run on a normal PC with a decent, mainstream graphics card. In this day of DX 10 and dual core processors being the "minimum requirement": it's great having a game series like this look fantastic without requiring a new PC.
This is a must have for anyone who likes a FPS.
Luved it October 7, 2008 This game pack is great. HL was a tad short but portal makes up for it. Portal it self is worth the price of the orange box.
Good Fun October 7, 2008 Good fun, portal was very interesting and mind boggling, which gave a good challenge and made you think outside the box on some instances. TF2 is fun, but as online play goes, it's as fun as the people that plays it, too many immature kids playing it for my taste on the open server. And thinks they're cool, by uttering profanities every other word.
Half Life 2 is ok, didn't care much for the storyline, it just didn't grab me.
Portal rocks! October 6, 2008 Anything connected to Half Life 2 is, of course, awesome. But Portal really is just something altogether different. Such a completely awesome game for people like me. I would describe it as part Myst/Riven and part shooter. Which, to me, is perfect.
never again October 5, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Tried for 4 days to install, but thanks to valve's DRM and steam, I never could get it to run. And couldn't return the game to wal-mart or resell it on ebay, so my $40 game ended up in the wood stove. I will never buy a game from valve or steam again.
