I've played through Portal and the first game and I didn't really have a problem. It gets frustrating every now and again but it's not that bad

i love TF2 ( i dont get much lag but my internet speed is 20mb) the framerate is not that bad portal runs very smooth and there are a few framerate problems in all the Half lifes ( HL2, Epi.1,Epi.2)

As I wrote in the other topic about this... My experience with The Orange Box has been horrible. The frame rate is atrocious, I've had frame rate issues in all of the Half Life games. The loading times are worse than the frame rates, I timed it in HL2 45 seconds from clicking load to being able to start moving. My PS3 is in a DMZ and I can't even connect to Team Fortress 2 games. Portal is the only game that feels like it is working as expected. I'm amazed that people can say there is nothing wrong with The Orange Box when it is clearly broken. Here's hoping a patch is released sooner rather than later to fix these issues.

First Time player of the Orange Box and I enjoy it alot!!! Its jammed full of content for ite price!!!! I only play offline and I never came across a part where it was unplayable. Load Times just suck!!!

But if you looking for a long lasting cheaper end ps3 game, hell yeah!!! Those developers had some cool ideas going on there!!

Team Fortress 2 lags a little, but other than that it's really fun.

Portal is awesome.

Half-life 2 is good to, haven't experienced any framerate issues.

But then again I got the Orange box for $40, so it's an awesome deal for me.
