5 out of 5 stars Great value   October 22, 2008

Essentially five games in 1. And these aren't your average games. Half-Life is amazing, Portal is thought provoking, and TF2 is flat out fun. At this price you can't go wrong. BUY IT!!!


4 out of 5 stars Awareness   October 8, 2008
Portal - I like puzzles... and videogames. What better way to fuse the two than with this one? No points, no power-ups and certainly no 'extra' lives. It is like a 3D LodeRunner, with a disturbing twist. I am currently on the achievement hunt(30K ft? Go make a sandwich!) I quite enjoy the 'good solution' concept rather than a 'perfect' one. 'Cake or death?!' Um, I'll have cake please.
Half-Life2 (et al) - I played its predecessor on the PC years ago. I gotta say, the magic is still there. Huge environs, bizaar puzzles, great backstory.
Team Fortress - Lost alot of hours online with the PC version. Not sure that I am sold on the facelift. It looks cartoonish. I haven't walked around enough to get the feel of it yet. I will get around to it...
SQ!



5 out of 5 stars Great Collection, Great Value   September 29, 2008
Five games, one box, $27 dollars. There isn't a better value in gaming right now. Half Life 2, Episode 1 and Episode 2 are basically all the same game. Sure, HL2 has outdated graphics but the gameplay is engaging and wide ranging. Half-Life's story itself is very interesting and it kind of drives me nuts that its going to have taken over 10 years for the whole tale to be told.

Portal, the next game, is the most unique game I've ever played. Describing it as a first person puzzle game will have to suffice but it doesn't do it justice. Portal challenges the way you think. Toss in the ridiculous humor and the re-playability (a variety of difficulty levels) and you have a great game; most of the most unique things to hit the market in years.

The last game, Team Fortress two, the sequel to the grand daddy of team based combat. It's incredibly simple, but also incredibly fun.



5 out of 5 stars Orange box is good, Portal is better.   September 29, 2008
The Orange Box is a really awesome video game. Half-life 2 and Episode 1 and 2 are very intriguing. The game play can get a little boring after a while if you're more into that Call of Duty style shoot-em-up. Half-Life 2 is really more of a puzzle-shooter. However, it is highly enjoyable, and beatable in about a week if you devote a good bit of time to it. Team Fortress 2 is a lot of fun, but I wouldn't buy it just for that. Now, Portal, that is what the Orange Box is all about. Portal is an original awesome puzzle game that you would have never expected to be so fun. The game is beatable in about 3-4 hours for your highly motivated thinker/game player. The best part though, is once you've beat the game, going back and trying to get the achievements. I would highly recommend the Orange Box to everyone.


5 out of 5 stars 5 FREAKING GAMES FOR 30 bucks!   September 27, 2008
Half Life 2, Half Life 2 Episode 1 and 2, Team Fortess, and Portal. If anyone with a brain can see, five game for only thirty dollars is a bargain. It has a great line up from the Half life games, Portal, and Team Fortress. This pack will keep you busy for awhile. Portal is the greatest game that's been created for such a long time, it's design and concept will blow you away. Lets see, Half Life games is great single player experience, it has Portal which is the puzzle shooter that everyone's been waiting for, and Team Fortress, the critically exclaimed as the best multiplayer to come to the Xbox.
