The Orange Box.
Get it. If you have a 360 get it. This package is the best deal a gamer could ever dream for on any console. (it's coming out on ps3 later this year or early next year, can't remember the exact date) Half life 2. Half Life 2 Episode one and Two, Portal, and Team Fortress 2. All excellent games, and all for the price of one game. I've played half life 2 for 3 days now, and I can safely say I think it's even better than Halo 3. Half Life 2: episodes 1 and 2 are sequels to the game of sorts, and expand the series even further. The Orange Box, since it has all three, is the most complete collection of Half Life games they've made, and no self respecting gamer should miss them. And then there is Portal. Mind Bending, Hilarious Portal. The sense of Humor in this game will make you howl with Laughter, just like it did Brannen and I when we went through the game for a bit last week. But the gameplay itself is genius. You control a pair of portals: shoot one somewhere, then shoot the other somewhere else, walk through one, and you come out the other. You have to use the portal device to solve different puzzles, and it gets pretty crazy a few levels in. Last of all is Team Fortress 2. It's a multiplayer only game, but don't let that stop you from playing it. You choose from a set of classes and shoot it out in first person with the guns you use depending on your class. It's a wacky game,and has a sense of humor to match portal.

Hilarious! HAHA! So fuckin' funny. "I'm not even mad. Even though you broke my heart and killed me.'

Brannen- 11-05-2007

yeah I got it off limewire. Oh and Spartan I won't be able to get it for another two monthes or more (If I get assassin's creed) I don't have the moeny in the budget to get it and Online.

I've heard only good things about this game. The song is great too. :lol:

Brannen- 11-09-2007

Sadly the Orange Box has been pushed back on the Priority list of games I need to buy. Assassins's creed is first. Then I have to buy Xbox Live subscription etc. So money will be tight with Galleon cracking the whip when it comes to spending my money.

So many good games. (Some of them with crazy vandalism scared store owners who turn shopping carts into weapons. Dead Rising of course)

Brannen- 11-10-2007

I can't even get passed the first boss in that game. It's not the Zombies that will kill you...

Night Stalker- 12-02-2007

I have it haven't got to play it as much as I want. I did beat portal though.

Brannen- 12-04-2007

I love the ending and the Crazy orb.
