I doubt there will be issues with the frame rate. The reason the Xobx had issues was likely due to sub par hardware and the 360 should be more than capable of handling it.

i dont doubt the power of the 360 but rather whether or not the developers take the time to make the game work on the console.

The original Xbox is infinitely weaker in power (both graphical and proccessing) than the Xbox 360. When HL2 came out on the Xbox, you may have seen frame rate issues due to the fact that the Source Engine is and was so realistic for its time. The Xbox 360 will handle the updated Source engine so well it'll be like running a hot knife through butter. I highly doubt that anyone will see any kind of frame rate issues with Orange Box.

It seems like the developers are putting more time into this game than they did with the regular xbox version.

I highly doubt it. The xbox was in its final stretch when HL2 came out and really had no place trying to run that game. It was just a money grabdirected towards the FPS hungry xbox fans. That version of thegame stunk. I never made it even half way through.

Just this weekI started playing it on my new computer andas most ofyou probably know, it fricken rocks! I think it could verywell be my favorite game ofall time. I can't wait to play the new chapterson my360.

Yup, on the PC, playing through it just recently again, I believe its not only the best shooter ever made, but perhaps one of the best games ever made.

HL2 on the xbox had bad framerate because it was a port of a technically groundbreaking 2004 pc title,but they did do a gr8 job with the xbox port (considering the xbox's weak hardware,compared to a 2004 pc).

Besides if you've watched any of the HL2 360 vids you'll know that it will runs as smooth as butter,while looking as good as max settings on a pc.

The graphics sucked on the Xbox version of HL2, the PC one was way better.
