Is the Orange Box good on Xbox 360?

thinking about getting it because i love portal and i've never played a half life game but they look great.

also i have xbox live so i think i will be able to play team fortress 2 aswell. But is it worth the $100 to buy on the 360.

No doubt. One of the best games of the year. Buy it it's 5 games in one and they are all very good.

btw the cake is a lie

It is indeed excellent but there are several problems such as:

Team Fortress 2 servers are alot of times VERY laggy.

If you have played Half Life 2 and/or Episode 1 before then don't spend your money on it, the only other amazing game is Portal which you'll beat in only one sitting.

Half Life 2 episode 2 sucks i was very disapointed.

If you can buy the PC version= much better.

Those things aside its still very good.

its not $100, its only $60. actually this week it is on sale for $40 at target.

The Orange Box is a great package, and its worth taking a look at to say the least. The half life series kept me entertained for the most part, even though I had already played HL2 on the PC I still found some fun in finding things I didn't notice before, and doing it in a different way. Half Life Episode 1 is a bit short and only really emphasies on developing characters more than anything else. I've not finished episode 2 yet so I can't comment on it!

Portal is almost perfect, however if you do not like challenging puzzles... then you may want to give it a miss. TF2 is a fun game, but you might as well just buy CoD4 if you are solely looking to buy TOB (The Orange Box) for TF2.

Oh, and a little tip... READ REVIEWS! ^_^

According to other topics in this forum, The Orange Box for the 360 isn't too good. Of course it comes with five games, but Team Fortress 2 supposedly lags a lot and suffers from lack of players when it comes to online. It's a lot better for the PC. Chances are your computer can play TF2, so just buy it for your computer.Eseyze

Don't judge the game if you have never played it.

Half Life 2 is now one of my favorite single players shooters, Ep 1 isn't that great, because it is basically the same as HL2.

Ep 2 was simply amazing.

Portal is extremely fun, though very short but you will want to play through it more then once.

TF2 can be laggy, but when you get into a game with no lag and nice people, it is tons of fun.

But WTF are you talking about, $100?

I have. It's a great deal of fun for the PC.

Don't be so quick to bash if you don't know the person.
