First off, Half life 2 (and episodes 1 and 2). This game has a fairly nice story, and is very addictive. The combat is great (partly thanks to the gravity gun, a weapon that lets you hurl most any relatively small object in the game at your enemies.) and the boss fights are amazing. The game also tends to differ in the "horror rating" depending on the stage. While some stages are pure sci-fi action, others are quite scary. On the stage called Ravenholm, it startes you off in the middle of the night , facing a tree that has the bottom half of a body hanging from it by a rope.you later find the top half of this body on table in a shed with a giant razor in its back.
Second in the box, Portal. This Game is amazing. You are a test subject in a facility run by a quite humorous cake-obsessed computer. You are given a tool called the portal gun, which you can use to get over high places by shooting a portal on the ceiling other side of the high place, and then one under your feet. You can make very long jumps using momentum, and make turrets fall from the ceiling in another room. You use this gun to complete various challenging puzzles, and to try to escape the reseach facility. Also, when you beat the game, you are rewarded by the very funny song, "still alive".
And last of all, Team Fortress 2. This game has simple, but nice graphics, no story whatsoever, but is very, very fun. There are a variety of classes, and each is completely unique. There is the pyro, who wears a gas mask and is equipped with a flamethrower, The scout, who is very fast, equipped with a sawed-off shotgun, a baseball bat, runs fast and can jump again in mid air, the spy, who can turn invisible, or wear a disguise that makes him look like the other team, and is equipped with a pistol, a knife, and a "sapper" which destroys creations made by and engineer, and many more. The only problems i have with this game is that if you are not hooked up to the internet on your PS3 or 360, you cannot play it, and when you are it has quite a few bugs.

I really enjoyed this bundle. I would have just settled for portal lol. This game plays great and the graphics are pretty good as well. I also think the game runs pretty well on the PS3, the Xbox 360 version does play cleaner. Really i could not really notice any difference.

Any Half-Life fan or FPS fan would love this game!

The orange box is a very masterful deal due to the content it has to offer, the quality games, and the value you are getting for your buck. The PS3 version may suffer from some technical mishaps, but the package is still a very solid choice. It contains half-life 2, an excellent pc game which had achieved over 40 awards, the sequel, and a brand new half-life experience, team fortress 2, a hectic online game which focuses on team play, and blowing stuff up! And finally, the Orange Box contains Portal, a unique but instant hit that has captivated many with its crude humor, gravity manipulating gameplay, and intriguing puzzling. I gotta say, if you're looking for a great deal with hours of quality game play, I'd suggest you pick up the Orange Box. It's great for fans of first person shooters, those who like something new, and fans or those who haven't played the half-life series.

Totally lives up to the Half-Life series! GREAT game in all respects. Get it! Do yourself a favor...

Buy this game, Buy this game ,Buy this game. reasons why, portal, half-life 2, and team fortress. If thats not enough how bout in portal warping portals with a a dimensional gun is wicked fun, or how scary half-life two can scare yourt pants off, of the unique gameplay for team fortess , either way this all adds u pfor recipe for fun

Valve's compilation The Orange Box is a schizophrenic's delight: it offers a new chapter in the Half-Life 2 saga, a wonderful multiplayer game in Team Fortress 2, and the spatial puzzler Portal, which went on to be a critical darling and a minor hit in its own right. As a package, it's a bit of a mess. Taken individually, each of the games has lots to offer. I still think it would've made more sense to offer each of these as download games -- I feel like the bundle concept just doesn't work well for this selection. Still, one of the best values in 2007 and a compilation with a lot to offer. Too bad it's hard to play on a console controller!

this game is intensely fun. ive been waiting for a while till i could get a chance to get it. the day i got it, i had portal beat because that was the game i was looking forward to the most on it. that was amazing! im totally addicted right now to team fortress 2, as it is too much fun. half-life 2 is crazy and had a great story line, although i havent gotten too far yet.

when you first see the orange box you wuold only notice the team fortress but the half life is the main fun. if you start at the beging you assume its a horrible game until you advance but realy the game unfolds its self in peaceful fighting sltye some what of the oo7 games and area 51 mixed game. the fill of the controls are as if the should be. i would say the graphics are moderate.

GREAT GAME!!! online play is just great with team fortess 2.Half life 2 is a great game it's like Blacksite:area 51 mixed with animated fun...portal is fun,challenging,boring,and rarely annoying with the music
