I don't understand why you bought this, I really don't. So many other games, of the same genre, both of higher quality (on consoles) and popularity, and some even exclusive to the system.
Orange Box is shit on both consoles. 'nuff said. |
Well that would be your opinion on the game. Many people dont think Portal is a shit game, or Half Life 2. I bought this because if has 5 games for 19.99 and I do enjoy playing TF2...

I don't think Portal is a shit game... I love it. Half-Life 2 is one of my favourite games of all time. Those games are just shit on consoles.
Awful loadtimes, awful fps, awful controls, and TF2 is so limited compared to the PC version (lacking maps, achievements, and weapons)

You talk out of your ass.
How is Orange Box on consoles 'shit'?
Really?

Well, I said it in that bolded part of that quote, let me copy and paste:

Have you played the console version? I haven't played the Ps3 version, but the 360 version is quite good, especially if you don't have a computer that can run the games at higher settings. I haven't wasted my time with TF2 since I completely agree that it's better on PC, but HL2, Epidode 1 and 2, and Portal are great on the consoles too. Even the framerate is good.
As for load times, they're bad on the PC too and luckily now you can install the games and from what I hear they pretty significally cut down on load times.

Yes, I have played the console version. I own the 360 one, and played the PS3 version for quite some time. I definatly experienced slow down on the 360 version in some of the later parts of the game... though it seems now that I'm the only one.
Portal is essentially the same, yeah, but without the precision of the mouse.

Have you tried clearing your cache? That seems to work for a lot of random things. I didn't play all the way through HL2, but I played Episide 1 and some of 2 and I don't remember any significant slowdowns (some hiccups but I get that even on the PC).
As for the controls, that's just preference. I greatly prefer controllers because keyboards are always a pain in the ass for lefties (or at least always have been for me).
