Forums - Gaming - Vgchartz ranking game--The Orange Box!

Pros

  • Half-Life 2-- genre defining game
  • Episodes 1 & 2 -- expand on that genre defining game
  • Team Fortress 2 -- while not so impressive on the consoles, it's incredible on the PC
  • Portal - fantastic game
  • Any of the four above points are worth full price but you get all this in one package

Cons

  • TF2 sucks on consoles
  • um...it doesn't have Episode 3?

I would say 9.5 and that's only because the console version of TF2 drags it down.

Can't get any better than this. I own the 360 and PC version btw.

Half-Life 2 - 10/10
HL2 Episode 1 - 9/10
HL2 Episode 2 - 9.5/10
Portal - 9.7/10
Team Fortress 2 - 9.3/10

(Even if the other 4 games would be literally shit, Half-Life 2 alone makes this compilation a 10)



HL2 - 10
Ep 1 - 9
Ep 2 - 10
Portal - 10
TF2 - 9

Overall - 10
I think this is the best deal in gaming in a long long time. I also have the PC version.

I also agree about rating this differently. The PC version will be among the highest rated games, but the 360/PS3 versoins were just utterly horrible.

You forgot to say "in my opinion"

Cause I thought the 360 version was excellent.  The only thing I didn't like about it was Team Fortress which I found boring.

It seems everyone's opinioni of the PS3 version is more or less the same, so that's more of a fact and less of an opinion.

yeah TF2 really lacks the great updates. For every other game the console version and PC version are equal IMO

IDK i've heard that the PS3 version isn't as bad as some people/reviewers make it out to be.

There was a patch for the PS3 version that fixed a lot of problems I think.

I played it after the patch so that's why I don't really understand people saying that the PS3 is horrible.

It sure is not a very good port though.

Well hell, that's like 1/2 of the content that TF2 currently has thats gone from the consoles. That's a pretty good amount in maps, weps, game types, hats, achievements, etc.
