The Orange Box delivers five innovative games from Valve, creators of the Half-Life franchise, in one box. The Orange Box includes Half-Life 2: Episode Two, PortalTM, and Team Fortress 2 in addition to full versions of the award-winning Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode One for an engrossing first-person action experience.
You really have to try the Orange Box, if only for Portal. It's been said again and again, but Portal is one of the most unique games to appear in a long, long while. Add onto that the acclaimed Half Life 2 series, along with the very fun online-only multiplayer TF2, and you have a box that will keep you occupied for a long, long time.
The Orange Box is definetly a must play for any sci-fi or action gamer. First its a real deal with five games packaged in one unit. Graphically - Good to Very Good - the game looks good even on the oldest version of the engine (Half-Life 2), their are no graphical gliches and the game runs smoove. Gameplay - very good - excellent story, easy to use and good controls, approximately 25 hrs of gameplay and fast pace action are all reasons what makes The Orange Box a must rent or buy.
You really do get your value from this disc. The Half-Life 2 series is just amazingly put together on almost every part. Graphics,gameplay,difficulty,sound,originality. Portal's a very amusing game that will give you an experiance. Team Fortress isn't my personal favorite, though it is good and very balanced.
Half-Life 2 (plus 2 expansions), Portal, and Team Fortress, all in the same disc.
Each one of the games included are all highly regarded classics, and this game can usually be found for under 20 bucks.
Valve and Sierra have created a bundle package for our pleasure. Game includes Half Life 2, Episodes 1 and 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2. Half life 2, in my opinion has some of the best, acting and story telling to date. Along with the brain teaser Portal which will keep you entertained and occupied for awhile, although it is possible to beat it within a few short hours. Now we move on to Team Fortress, this game is a copy of the original Team Fortress Classic, with graphical upgrades.
The orange box comes with 3 games Portal, which is where you have to test out a brand new "portal gun" to get past levels, Team fortress 2 is alot of fun, it comes with capture the flag games team deathmatch and much more, but if you dont have live it wont work.
5 games in 1. And it's not 5 so-so quality games, it's 5 of the best FPS games in recent memory. I was really surprised too at how much fun it was to play through HL2 again, it's still an awesome game. TF2 is a really unique online multiplayer experience that's a lot of fun. But the gem is really Portal. I don't like puzzle games, but I found myself really enjoying it. Great story, and fun puzzles (without getting frustratingly difficult). 10/10
Or build a time machine to a time when this godly disc hadn't been created yet. It's worth the full price just for team fortress 2 or portal but you still get the half-life series. Amazing graphics, nearly flawless gameplay, sound is near perfect. the only question is why your still reading this and haven't gotten the game yet.
