"THE BEST GAME DEAL TO DATE!"
PORTAL: Portal brings a great new twist into the gaming world. Basically you weild a portal gun that (duh!) shoots portals. Sounds dull right? WRONG! Ther's a lot to Portal that meets the eye, as they say "don't judge a booke by it's cover." Suprisingly Portal is very fun and it seems will never get old to me. Another suprise is that Portal is one of the funniest games to date. It's a laugh-riot, but I won't dive into the details.
Bad: Ummm, there really sin't anything bad about Portal, I guess I can say that it can get a LITTLE repetetive sometimes, and when your stuck on some things you might just give up.
Team Fortress 2: Announced quite a long time ago Team Fortress has been remade from top to bottom, but in a great way. It is very innovative in it's art style pixar movie scheme and it's game-play is really fun! I love the different classes seemed to be made for every type of gamer, like the big pycho gamer in you can be "the heavy"or the passive gamer can be "the medic." It was worth the wait and a must player for everyone.
Bad: Not that many maps, AND A REAL DISAPPOINTMENT AND SUPRISE IS THAT YOU CAN ONLY PLAY "TEAM FORTRESS 2" WITH XBOX LIVE OR WITH SYSTEM LINK (LINKING 1 OR MORE 360'S TOGETHER). I WAS ANGRY WHEN I FIGURED OUT THAT YOU CAN'T PLAY THIS GAME WITH YOUR FRIENDS WITH ONE 360. THIS IS THE MAJOR FLAW OF "TEAM FORTRESS 2."
Half-Life 2 ep 2: The most recent game in the half-life franchise. This game is very hard to put in words, and I have mixed emotions about it. I like the innovative gravity gun and the new souped-up buggy car. This game also has a sense of humor to it. The graphics are great and the voice animations are too.
Bad: The action in this game is quite slow in my opinion, and I ABSOLUTLEY HATE HOW YOU CAN'T SKIP LISTENING TO THAT LADY THAT YOUR WITH, SHE'S SUCH A BLABBER MOUTH. This may sound real stupid but I think Half life 2 was made to piss people off. For example, usually in games there's a map or and objective screen, but half life 2 ep 2 doesn't have that!. I spent like 30mins trying to figure out what to do in this one level! I don't know if it's just me, but if your just going to buy the orange box for half life 2 ep 2 then your wasting your time and money.
Overall though "The Orange Box" is one of the most innovative and valued game to date. It gives a really good deal and it is worth playing.
