I just got the orange box on the PS3 and i havent played a half-life game before...I was wondering, do i need to play HL1 before playing HL2? Or would i be able to understand the whole story by jumping straight to HL2? Thanks..

You can jump into HL2 without worry. But to maximize the exprience, I suggest you get HL1. You can probably pick it up at your local EB for $5.

If you have a credit or debit card, you can download it off Steam for 10 dollars.

Personally though, I don't see any old GoldSrc games on shelves these days, not even at the bargain bin.

What do you expect? Valve sets the price; and people still buy it.

If it wasn't for Steam you'd see copies on Ebay and Amazon for ungodly amounts.

Don't just get Halflife alone. Opposing Force is a MUST PLAY also. Blue Shift is good and also worth playing.
