Default The Orange Box.

That's what I call a ____ good deal. Five games in one

-Half-Life 2
-Half-Life 2: Episode 1
-Half-Life 2: Episode 2
-Portal
-Team Fortress 2.

The only thing I dislike about it is that you need Xbox Live (Gold, of course) to play Team Fortress 2 and I was getting my hopes up to play it, but I couldn't.

Other than that, it's almost perfect. I'm on Half Life 2 right now, stuck in this one part, but it's still excellent.

I really recommend buying this, five games for sixty dollars! All though for me now, it's four games, but I used to be a big fan of the first Half-Life. Also, Portal is this puzzle game. It's looks really addicting, and just like the name, you create Portals to reach your objective or whatever you're suppose to do in it. I haven't read about it at all, yet, but I have seen gameplay on YouTube.

So buy it. NOW!

It's a better deal for the PC. xD.

50 bucks, more online play, better possible gfx, etc.

But meh. Still a good deal, i suppose. But the only thing is, most people already have half-life 2....i just wanna play half life 1, lol.

I think they added more stuff or something to all the Half-Life 2's. Well maybe it was just episode 2, but somewhere along the lines of that.

Really good and hilarious dialogue. It's also incredibly addictive.

Yes! I love Portals. I've been playing this so much, I love their dialogue and their pictures. Like in the beginning puzzles when you get the box with the pink heart on it, your companion, lawl!
<3 mucho love, buy this game!

It was just episode 2, and even if it wasn't, that's what patches are for, lol .

For Half-life, PC > Console, any day.

And Portal's too short, from what I hear. (Unless your noobs who take forever, lol).

Oh, and like I said before, 10 bucks cheaper on PC...or 60 bucks cheaper. .

I do agree that portals is a short game, except for the advance puzzles after the first run, still having trouble with the third one :[.
Also, not everyone has over the line decent computers. For me it was a better deal to get it on xbox because my computer is pretty old, it would run it slower and with worse graphics ;o.

I wish people would stop talking about Halo 3, but that's not going to happen.
