The Orange Box

Discuss the Orange Box here! For those who don't know, the Orange Box is a game value pack that contains:

Half Life 2
Team Fortress 2
Portal
Half Life 2: Episode 1
Half Life 2: Episode 2
Half Life 2: Lost Coast

I am about halfway into Hl2, and about a quarter of the way through portal. Sadly, Team fortress 2 does not work on my computer.

never played any of those game except portal and I didn't play it, I watched Tim play portal. so, I don't really know about those games

I just checked, and I am three quarters of the way through portal instead of one quarter. I got there through one day of playing. Portal is really short.

I LOVE ORANGE BOX!!!! I WANT IT SO BADLY!!!

but I'll wait until I get an X-Box 360 as it's supposed to be so much better on it.

@Eclipse: WHAT?!? FPS games like half-life 2 are MADE for the PC, and that is the best way to play them.

Portal is one of the best games ever.

Most PCs have much higher gfx quality than any console ever will. Unless you play on a notebook, just use a PC to play/

Unless you have a macbook pro with Boot Camp (like me), in which case just use that.

I might be getting an alienware laptop soon! I'll use that.

Holy crap, ALIENWARE?! *jealousy*

I recommend you don't get an alienware, actually. They lack the performance that their price entails. The desktops are good, but the laptops are average. Sure, they're powerful, but other companies offer similar machines with lower prices. What you're really paying for is the packaging.
