Orange Box?

Siouxsie · October 27, 2007, 03:11 AM

Has anyone picked up the Orange Box? It has Half Life 2 (both episodes), Team Fortress and Portal.

My roomie has it and I must say, Portal looks very challenging and entertaining (not to mention that Gladys, the computer that "helps" you, illicits tons of laughs).

I was just wondering what other folks had to say about it.

I got the black box. Remove ep1, add a shiny graphics card.

Portal is superb, short, but I'm loving it. GLaDoS or however it's capitalised is awesome "please do not stay near the button long, prolonged exposure to the button is not part of test protocol". The turrets later on are great too, they are so grown up about things.

TF2 will be the game of choice a bit later though I want to get my exalted cenarion before I start using my weekends practicing.

I have been playing the heck out of team fortress 2 lately. For those that are looking for a good TF2 community to become a part of, I would recommend The Team Fortress 2 Fort | Unofficial Team Fortress Community Site

It a community very similar to this one for wow. Just mature people playing together to have fun (although there is a competitive clan).
