The Orange Box-good or not?

Question

Obviously it's a awesome value but apparently EA screwed up the port. There's plenty of framerate problems. Who here thinks they'll get it?

Answer 1

I played it on PC. It's a nice game, The Portal is a great add-on puzzle, BUT don't expect crazy graphics from an old PC game. It uses same old engine from HL2. But if you're a HL fan - it's a must.

Answer 2

Personally from my perspective I think the whole package is a complete waste of money. The games are graphically poor, and just remakes of older games. There is alot of other titles that are better to grab. Unless you want to spend money on games that don't seem to complete utilize the graphic potential of the 360 then don't buy it. But this is just my personal opinion. The game was very highly publicized and hyped by the media because of the Half Life package (which is probably the only good thing on there). You can also check ratings and more in depth reviews of this game at any major game sites. Please refer to sources.

I hope this helps. Take care =)

Answer 3

You can tell this game was made for PC and 360 first. It looks like garbage. Reminds me of FEAR. Looks outdated compared to newer games, especially PS3 exclusive games like Uncharted, Ratchet, Heavenly Sword, Resistance, Folkore, Lair, etc. COD4 is sick also (way better looking on Ps3) along with Assassin's Creed. As far as multi platformers go. If you haven't picked up Resistance or Ninja Gaiden Sigma those would be of cpurse two more games to pick up.

Answer 4

I will have to pass on this package.. played the pc version already.. And theres plenty of new shooters coming out.
I'm also gonna pass on Unreal Tourny. And just wait for Haze

Answer 5

Its still great but its better on the 360 & PC but still worth the money if you play online.

Answer 6

if u have online its worth it
