The best deal in videogame history.

User Rating: 9.5 | The Orange Box X360
By Franken_Berry | Review Date:
The Orange Box is a varied collection of excellent games that oozes character and appeal. Not a single game included in this package feels like a throw-away or too similar with one another.

+ Half-Life 2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2 all have an undeniably unique style and sense of character, and all charming in their own respects.

+ Half-Life 2 holds up really well to the test of time, and the new episodes continue with the same winning formula.

+ The stories tied into Half-Life 2 and Portal are engaging, personable, and fresh.

+ Team Fortress 2 is impecably balanced, and is trully built on skill.

+ Portal is incredibly innovative and mind-bending, not to mention hilarious and entertaining.

- Portal is too short.

- Environments and maps in Team Fortress 2 can feel a bit too similar.

Each game included would warrent a worthy purchase alone, but including them all into one $59.99 game is incredible deal that shouldn't be passed up by anyone.
