Forums - Gaming - Just curious: Who here has bought The Orange Box?!

I've been looking up the sales of The Orange Box... And it seems that the game really bombed in America (for the PS3, atleast...)!

I find that rather odd! For it's the best 60$ bundle i have ever seen and has some of the best games of this generation on it! (At my place it is only 19.99$ btw...).

I recently finished Half Life 2, Half Life 2: Episode 1 and i'm midway throughu Episode 2. Portal lvl 17. I really, REALLY like this game! And i suggest everyone who hasn't bought this title should pick it up! 40+ hours of awesomeness confirmed!... Seriously! Even the PS3-version! The lag isn't as bad as most people say! The gameplay makes more then up for it!

But back to my question! Who has bought this title, what system, and what did you think of it?!...

 

Note: The graphics of Episode 1, and especially Episode 2 REALLY ANNIHILATE ANYTHING seen on a console! Seriously! Totally, fucking awesome! Just look up the intro of Episode 2 on youtube or something...

This title TOTALLY looks awesome in 16:9 widescreen in HD!

Seriously! The Orange Box is way better then Resistance i.m.h.o! You just have to get into it!

The PS3 version is the worst of all three versions. I am sure there is a large percentage of PS3 owners that own either a 360 or PC. For all those who bought The Orange Box, I would guess most of them bought it for one of the other platforms.

PC version is the best and 360 and PS3 versions are about the same. The best game of the five is Portal. If you get stuck have a look at the videos for the levels you want on the web.



I own the PS3 version.

It's a fantastic title. Episode 2 is truly the pinnacle of FPS gaming.

I actually found, when my friend and I made comparisons (he owns both the 360 and PS3 version) that online, the PS3 version of Team fortress 2 lags less.

So although there are notable frame rate problems in the main story modes, it's not all bad for PS3 Orange box owners.



 

I got the 360 version. From what i've heard though, i doubt the 360 and ps3 versions are about the same. But yeah... this game is awesome.




I might buy it for PC.
