That's great that Half-Life Orange Box adds another AAA game to the 360 library, but I'm getting sick of all the shooters. Does Microsoft know how to make anything else?It feels like 90% of the AAA games on 360 are shooters. How about a little variety Bill Gates?

I didn't say they developed it, but they did authorize its release. Just give me something more than a shooter, especially since the best version of a shooter is always on the PC or Wii with the mouse/keyboard or Wiimote providing a better control system.

Does Microsoft know how to make anything else?

Self ownage confirmed.

As for authorising games, aside from controversial issues/ratings this is a moot point.

Everyone knows who Valve is, but if you're going to nit-pick on pointless stuff and ignore the main point of my argument, go ahead.

If you are going to be ignorant of the 360's variety of genres, than at least show me a next gen console with better library.

Letsjust look at the new release demos on XBL here I'll list them for you and we will see how many are shooters

Bee movie game (not a shooter)

Bladestorm (not a shooter)

Clive Barkers Jericho ( Ok a shooter I'll give you that one)

Conan (not a shooter)

F.E.A.R Files (yep a shooter)

NHL 2K8 (not a shooter)

PGR4 (not a shooter)

The Simpsons game (not a shooter)

Thrillville (not a shooter)

Looney Tunes AA (not a shooter)

So out of the10 demos only two are shooters this xbox 360=shooters myth needs to die.

Here's some advice. Buy some games that aren't AAA! Do you know that A and AA games can be good? I know, it's a weird concept, but true.:shock:

GTFO

Orange Box = BEST GAME COMPILATION EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First you have Half-Life 2 - one of the best FPS games that has a story better then most RPG's. Then you have 2 continuasions of Half Life.

Then you Have Team Fortress 2...which is one of the greatest MP games of all time...better than Halo 3 IMO.

Then you have Portal...which is pure aweosome...kind of a hybrid FPS/Adventure


Does the orange box include CS:S? I'm getting the game tomorrow and I thought CS:S was in..just making sure?
