orange box

[A DUCK]

does the orange box just include hl2 ep2, portal, and tf2? or does it also come with hl2 ep1 and hl2? i hope its just the three new ones cause i dont wanna have to waste money on games i already have...

HL2,Ep1, Ep2, TF2 and Portal.

Pretty good deal for 60 bucks, I don't have Ep1, so I'll definately be picking it up. Im not as excited for Portal anymore like when I first saw it. TF2 looks way more fun now, and Ep2 is really shaping up. The graphics have improved and the game is on-par with most "Next gen" games now. Crysis is the only exception I can think of.

I liked hl2 ep1 even better then hl2.

Yeah, when I heard TF2 was taking out nades I was real disappointed but it seems like they're reworking the entire game to be a much more solid and fair experience. I like the new capture points system, and having the medic not be the #1 offensive player makes a lot more sense. Episode 1 was great, I just love the story and atmosphere of the Half-Life series and I can't wait to see what Ep2 offers. Portal should be a fun and unique experience as long as there's a good balance of fun and difficulty.. I've never liked games where you get to the point where it's just stupidly and frustratingly hard. Games that give me headaches = i r no fan.

Slightly off topic here, but I heard that the Black Box has been canceled for the PC. Does anyone know if this is true? I know I can still get Ep2 without buying the whole orange box, but it's still a little annoying.

That's true.

The Black Box will still be available through Steam, although (possibly) under a different name.

I thought black box was cancelled entirely?

[dontleave]

Me too.

[A DUCK]

i think its really stupid that they cancelled the black box, because there are ALOT of people who already have hl2 and hl2ep1 (me being one of them)

It's still the price of one game for 5.

i cant wait for the orange box to come out, those are all the games ive been wanting to play since i upgraded my pc. Im most looking forward to TF2.

I'm wanting Episode Two the most now, it's improved a lot. Still second to L4D though.

[bub]

All three look awesome. No one seems to be mentioning portal. It looks really cool. I am probably looking for episode 2 the most. We're gonna learn way more about the plot.

[Alonzo]

I'm excited for all three. I've been debating which to play first when they come out. I can't decide! XD
I love the idea of TF2's kill cam though. It sounds hilarious. Also, the scout's double jump might make him a bit more useful, instead of just being a second to medic.

When you finally get your hand on the box which game are you going to play first?
