I'd get The Orange Box because the individual prices of the game through Steam are pretty expensive with Portal ($19.95) and Episode 2 ($29.95) costing a total of $50 and that doesn't even count TF2. I think the better option would be to get the Orange Box and then 'gift' HL2 and Episode 1 to a friend... You could also be a bastard and say "$20 for HL2 and Episode 1 and I'll give them to you" and recoup some cash, lol.

Anyway, I rented The Orange Box on the PS3 and I didn't like it. I'm sure TF2 has improved with more people having the game that know what they're doing, but it felt like people running around like bumbling idiots back when I rented it. Still, I think the PC would have the most intense experience and when the DSL at my apartment isn't acting up and giving me a ping from 100 (annoying) to 600 (ugh.....), it's a pretty awesome game.
My most favorite aspects of TF2 would be from my favorite class, the sniper. It's pretty intense to nail scouts, soldiers, and demomen that are jumping across the top of the bridge or 'rocket jumping' directly at you and it's the funniest thing to watch people stand on the enemy battlements (2fort) and just sit there like they want me to headshot them. Even better is when you get a Heavy on the enemy battlement that tries to hit you with his main gun.
