Orange box is the best deal to date for a 360 game, and an even better deal for us PC players :)

Indeed. It may just be my most anticipated gaming item I purchase this year just because of the great value that is involved. Gotta love Valve.

It is all about Team Fortress 2 for me. I have been waiting for that game for a very long time.

This has got me excited more than any other game this year. I can't wait. I hope it comes out when they say it will. But knowing them it won't.

Hell not just the best deal for 360 owners, more like the best deal I've ever heard, 5 GOOD, full games in one, just for 60 bucks, it's hard to even believe. Portal will be worth my 60 bucks alone :)

do you think people will be playing this online a lot, or will most people still be playing Halo 3?

Nothing, of course! :)It's the thinking man's Halo-killer imo. (Emphasis on thinking-man)

Who knows, maybe I'll end up buying halo around christmas time... Only time will tell ;)

i'll get both and play whichever one's better. and trust me, this game will never die online. it'll have the staying power halo 2 has.

Half-Life 2 is my favorite game of all time and I haven't played Ep 1 & 2 yet, so naturally this is by far my most anticipated game this year. The only game that I know for sure I'll be buying.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to the orange box too. I played HL2 on my PC when it first came out. I have not played Episode 1. So, I'll be able to play that off the orange box. Plus, I'm going to replay HL2 and play Episode 2, Portal and TF2.

This is so going to be worth $60. Plus, during Gamespot's E3 show, they ask a Valve guy about DLC. He said that Valve only charges for the box the game comes in. They never charge for DLC. So, any new maps or content for TF2 should be free. As long as MS doesn't stick there nose in it.

i'm looking forward to replaying hl2, and i've never tried ep1 or 2.. portal doesn't excite me at all, and i don't know much about team fortress, so i'llreserve my opinion on that (but it doesn't look to appealing to me)

i will be getting this game for hl2 and ep 1&2, but i don't think i'll get it right away (like it was already mentioned, there's quite a few new games i want releasing around the same time, so it's gonna be hard to decide.)

I really can't wait for this game. This and Oblivion GOTY Edition are great deals, and this game relly looks unique, especially with Portal and Team Fortress 2.

I really hope that more games come out with such great gameplay and such great deals as this and Oblivion GOTY. :D

half life 2 is now a budget game, it came out before halo2, and xbox1 hardware was able to run it. alot of people replaying it are going to be thinking "i remember it being alot better than this". it hapened to me with golden eye.

yeah, it was a dumbed down port for the xbox. they're redoing it so it will look all nice and shinny on the 360 ;) i imagine it will look similar to the pc experience i had (or maybe better?)

Half-Life 2 is entertaining on the xbox, but nothing compares to Half-Life 2 on the computer.

Ah ha that guy said Too Human is better than not just Half Life 2, one of the greatest games of all time but it is also better than episode one, episode 2, Team Fortress 2, and Portal!

That has to be one of the funniest things I have ever heard a person say while discussing video games.

Honestly the only two games that are coming out that are sure to be better than the Orange Box is Bioshock and Mass Effect.

Halo 3 and GTA 4 still have a lot to prove after E3.

Assassins Creed features countless women, who all look the same, carrying pots on their head. If Half Life 2 featured that type of copycat NPC, Valve would quit making games out of embarassment- UBI Montreal does not share that type of quality.

The kids who have played non-stop Halo/Halo 2 will continue to play that online because it's the only game they can be good at. Everyone else who wants more than the slow paced, played out Halo action will be on TF2 alllllllllllllll day and having a lot more fun.

Too Human? ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah.

1) only 1000 achievements

2) All games take pre-orders. Or you could walk into the store on Oct. 9th whatever your style is

3) they are all on one disc
