[QUOTE="coolviper2003"]I'm talking about the PC version here. It only cost $50, and some stores will probably sell it for $40 like Circuit City (they sold Bioshock for $40). PC mods add a lot to a game's life span, thats's why I am confident that it will offer more game for you buck then Halo 3.PotatoSan

Oh. I assumed you meant the 360 version, since Halo3 is obviously a 360 exclusive.

BTW, I never should have made the comment about HL2 being good in 2004, because I haven't truly enjoyed a single player game since the NES days. I realized when I started playing online multiplayer, that I wasn't even having fun playing single player games. I don't really get into stories in games. Who knows why. I like books a lot more for that. Games that are made to be pure fun (instead of thrilling or exciting or puzzling) are what I like.

I don't restrict a game to a certain platform, if it's available on more then one platform, I'll use the better one to help me in an argument (somewhat childish but oh well ^^; ). The debate wasn't Halo 3 vs 360 version of the Orange Box, so I included and used the PC version in my debate. I think the 360 version of the Orange Box will have a much harder time against Halo 3, but as far as the PC version is concerned, the Orange Box offers more gameplay for your buck, and might be the better game overall IMO. And since you only like MP for some reason, I can see why you might prefer Halo 3, and in that case I'd agree with you, but in terms of single player and having more content, Halo 3 pales in comparison.

In sales, Halo 3 will destroy the Orange Box. Isn't that what matters? "The market decides."

Halo 3 multiplayer will be better than Team Fortress simply because of the amazing matchmaking and larger player base of Halo 3, not to mention the VERY balanced online play that Halo has. Single player? Well, I've already played Half-life 2 and Episode 1, so I don't really care for Episode 2. Yay... another 6 hour game, and when THAT is over, another 1 year+ wait.

Halo 3 will finally finish a great trilogy, so I'm looking forward to that WAY more than Episode 2. Will the Orange Box be good? Probably... but I will like Halo 3 much better (I think).

Seriously. :|

Anyone who thinks that Halo 3's campaign will be better than HL2+EP1 & EP2 deserves to have their head shoved in a blender.

Also, Team Fortress 2's deep strategy based gameplay will own the shallow and unbalanced MP of Halo.

..... HAHA wow you made me laugh...... shallow and unbalanced MP? Ha!

Poor Lemming. Doesn't even know what a REAL online FPS is.

Go back to playing your casualized Halo.

Poor Jumbalaya, doesn't realize lemmings get both and have a CHOICE.

Orange Box will own Halo 3 in terms of singleplayer

but when it comes to multiplayer Halo 3 will be far and away superior with both its traditional modes, forge, and 4 player co-op

I agree completely and chances are Team Fortress and Episode 2 will individually be better than Halo 3.

The only real debate for me is which system to get it on. I really don't care that K/M is better for gaming, it isn't nearly as comfortable. However, I game on my PC a lot and I probably prefer it but I usually do it with my X360 wireless controller and Steam games have always been extremely difficult to get to work with my X360 controller so I may just get it for the X360 instead although it will be less appealing visually.

Half Life 2's AI wasn't exactly great when it was new, so unless they've made some major improvements there, that's one area it probably won't beat Halo 3 in.
