The Orange Box

samo8076 · 13/Aug/07, 10:48 AM

Anybody else excited to get their mits on the Orange Box (Half Life 2 etc)? Im quite surprised there is no hype at all for this considering what you get in the box etc.

There is hype, but considering we have arguably the best end of year games lineup, it's probably being a little overshadowed, I suppose.

Don't know if I'll bother with Team Fortress 2 and Portal myself. Since they canned the Black Box, I don't know if I'll bother with the other two.

I was looking forward to them, but ended up just playing through Half Life 2 and Episode 1 on the PC last week. Both mighty fine games. I dont think I will bother with the 360 version, unless Team Fortress 2 is the duggs danglies.

Portal looks totally awesome, problem with half life 2 though is most people have played it ages ago, even on the original xbox.

I think the main draw is going to be Episode 2, I don't think I've seen a single trailer for TOB with Half-Life 2 or Ep1 shown.

I would buy it because HL2 was great, but I already have the original and Episode 1 on the PC, so I don't see why I should pay $60 for Team Fortress, Portal, Ep2 and getting the other 2 on 360. Too many other games out this fall.

whats the multiplayer part all about then? is it just Team Fortress 2 that is multiplayer? they should include Counter Strike tbh. awesome game, love it to come to 360,

Portal does look sweet. Wonder if all the games have 1000 achievements points each, lol, you'd get like loads just from buying this box.

Never played Half Life before so looking forward to my first taste, and Team Fortress looks a lot of fun online with some mates

Is it gonna cost the price of a normal game? Or more since theres quite a bit packed in there.
