Both but since it sounds like you can only have one ATM then get orange box first.

Bioshock is one of the most memorable games I have ever played. I know the Orange box is great, just whatever you do, play Bioshock at some point in your life.

Bioshock and Half-Life 2 are arguably the two best single-player FPS games ever made. Orange Box overall is a better deal, but you still need to play Bioshock.

Go with Orange Box, as Half-Life 2, both episodes, and Portal will last you a long while.

I would take BioShock.

Half Life is really good but BioShock is a freakin' masterpiece.

Half-Life 2 and BioShock are two awesome games, however, you will get a lot more replay value out of The Orange Box.

Seems like a no-brainer...Orange Box just for the value, alot more game play for the money. When you get Live - get Call of Duty 4 !!!!!!!!!!

Buy Orange Box. Rent Bioshock.

Don't get me wrong, I love Bioshock, but once you play through the game twice (trying each alternate ending), there's little replay value.

On the other hand, Orange Box is five games in one- and will take a long time to finish Portal (rocks by the way), HL2, and the two episodes. Also, TF2 is a game you can play ocassionally- like playing Halo 3 online.

Well, that's just my logic.

I have to disagree to a certain degree with HL2 orange box lovers out there. Yeah played hl2 cool game... put it away never touch it again the episodes so-so not really too impressed with them and the portals definitely cool but for me seemed like more of a game physics/mechanics demo. Overall, i see the logic behind getting orange box but just cant bring myself to recommend it over bioshock considering how much more i enjoyed bioshock.

BioShock makes the Orange Box look like crap. If you're looking for replayability you should get the orange box, but nothing in it is even in the same league as BioShock in terms of greatness. Bioshock is gonna be the GOTY when it's all said and done. Plus, I never did like Half life. Pretty boring to me.

Bioshock is very unique but short. Orange Box is a much better value but it's not as good as Bioshock, HL2 is good but Portal is great. Bioshock is a must so go with it first.

Buy the orange box rent bioshock. I loved bioshock but it has no replayability it relies on storyline twist and turns and once those are passed thats it doesnt have its impact anymore. Orange box is amazing and yes i own it and rented bioshock.

i'd get orange box over bioshock if i was to choose. however, both are masterpieces and must owns. save money and get them both

make sure you've played the original half life before attempting to get orange box. otherwise its pointless. if so get bioshock
