I'm deciding between The Orange Box and Battlefield 1943 because I wanna get a new game. I'm bored with Cod WaW and need a new multiplayer with a good replay value. On top of that, both of these games are reasonably cheap. Which do you suggest for me? Or if there are any other games that are cheap and have a good online multiplayer, feel free to suggest them too. Thanks in advance.

The Orange Box is excellent value with 5 good games, and if you are looking for single player and multiplayer then I think anyone that has played it would recommend it, particularly for the prices you can find it for now. However if you are only looking for a multiplayer game, which in TOB is TF2, then I would be hesitant to recommend it. TF2 is good fun with a group of friends, but online with random people the community is small, and plenty of them abuse bugs and exploits that have been known about for a long time but never patched. BF1943 on the otherhand is good fun and popular now, but will it follow the route of just about every other XBLA game to date - plenty of interest in multiplayer for the first couple of months, then dies off. Since it has only been out a couple of weeks no one can say for sure, but with only 4 maps I wouldn't be surprised to see interest fading quickly.

you really get everything with the orange box... if your not happy with what you get from the orange box, then IM not sure if I can call you a gamer... so yes I would say the orange box, because there is something for everybody in those 5 games (and I loved all of them)
