If you've played the Half life games you'll it's called the Orange Box.

Calm on, Gordan Freeman, main character of Valve's most famous game, in his ORANGE HEV suit that we see him in all the time.

I wanna buy it for the PC, but not if it's as short as ep1.

You're skipping on a HL experience? Bad call.

Apparently Ep2 is longer than Ep1, theres a lot more story in Ep2 as well so if you enjoy HL I definately recommend picking it up.

Cmon, grab the Orange Box and its about $10 - you cant be too hard on Valve. The quality of the story makes it more than worth it. The length is great for the price of the game.

Even at a standalone $30 off steam it'd still be worth it. Ive beaten Ep2 twice already and it was really fun both times. Mind you one of those times was holding a Garden Gnome, but with or without him it is so much fun.

I prefer AC myself. I stopped playing Half Life half way through Ep. One because I just got so bored with it.

It's really to bad because the original Half Life for PC was one of the best games ever made.

OB is brilliant value for money,
you get the best shooter of recent years, coupled with 2
of its expansion which dont dissapoint.

What i will say however, is i wouldnt reccommend getting OB
for 360, because TF2 has too many problems, and its one of the highlights of the package, that you shouldnt waste.

ya i didn't have to pay dime for repair or shipping on my end something fishy here why did you have to pay for the shipping and do as i did ship it to the company they used to send the box in and in my case it was UPS that they used to send me the box to therefore i sent it back to them using UPS so you should have done that .......

orange box for sure.

Personally I found AC terribly boring, looks great fun at 1st but miiind numbingly repetative, combat is the same over and over, the objectives are the same over and over etc etc!!

Bioshock I found boring, its certainly an origonal game just not to my taste, squinting down corridors just to see where I'm going isnt what I like doing.

then TOB, HL2, fantastic game, ep1 and 2 and short yes, but good fun. portal is a little extra that is great fun and TF2 has been 9years in development :P to come up with a rather well polished final product. 5 great games for 1 price

your mates are a bunch of fucking morons. HL2 is the best FPS ever made. anyone who would call it "crap" has no business playing games, and should probably go do something else.
