i doubt it...3 re released games in a box is unlikely to get an AAA rating here. 3 fantastic games mind you (and if you havent played them then you really should)....but still just repackaged old games.

Why not?

Because it's a compilation of games which have already been released? Additionally, two of the games in said series was AAA on this website. Your point is moot.

Because the Orange Box isn't a re-release. Granted, it did Include Half Life 2 and Episodes 1, but it included a plethora of new games. Awful comparison.

Because Orange Box has 3 separate new games. Now when these games were re-released on PC separately (Portal - 9.0, TF 2 - 8.5 , Ep 2 - ? ) they were reviewed by GS again but not counted

It was an extremely bad comparison. Ports do count. However a rehash of a previous generation game shouldn't count for much. What if Nintendo released the exact same Zelda or Mario every gener........oh wait.

I think it should count, especially since Metroid Prime 1 and 2 are not on the Wii. Yes, they can be played on the Wii, but do we count those AAAs towards the Wii? Well, anyway, I don't think they will review it. Did they review the other New Play Control games?

I'm sorry you feel that way. It's a shame that has nothing to do with the game's quality or its availability for the Wii, which -- if it scores a 9 or above -- makes it the Wii's next AAA.

They reviewed it because it had 3 new levels and 1 new playable character, though I get what you're saying.

The orange box isnt a game its a collection of games. its like saying 'The complete valve collection' is better the Half life 2 or The complete popcap collection or any of those type of deals steam is flooded with.

I don't know why people are arguing if it counts or not when the TC never mentioned AAAE, he just said AAA.

It's a shame you feel that way. The orange box is a far better deal, and compilation of games, which did score a 9.5 here. I'm glad the Wii is getting an AAA title that actually have nothing to do with the Wii's controls. I guess Nintendo should be that desperate. Trying to find a decent game on the Wii that was released this year would be like trying to find snow in Madagascar.
