Gaming Valve Orange Box

[aslacker55]

Orange Box for the xbox 360 is now being uploaded in the usenet. File name: ccclx-orgbox. I hope that it's real, I can't wait to try Portal.

Edit: It is also region free, according to ABGX.net

It's been ages since I used Steam. Do I still have to set up a Steam account when I buy an Orange Box?

Was it worth ~$40? Hell yes. Was it worth an eight hour wait? Um, no.

Looks like its going to be ages before I get my copy, bloody royal mail bastards.

Radiohead is out and it's fucking awesome so far

it has a slight early 90s rock sound to it that I like


27 minutes till episode 2 and portal!

oops wrong thread

Episode 2 is absolutely awesome so far. Far better than episode 1 and might even beat out HL2 for my favorite game in the series

Its freaking awesome! Portal feels so damn new, Episode 2 feels like its more than a expansion. Not been on Team Fortress 2 yet but I'll happily pay £25 for the PC version when it comes out over here, hell if it was 360 only I'd pay full price!

Finally got my download link for Radiohead too! Been waiting since 8am!

 

[Opium]

I've finished Episode 2 and Portal now. Both were amazing. What's there to say? Valve are still the kings.


Come on Episode 3!

And what are you planning on paying for it?

I feel that Portal's true brilliance will come from user created content, not that the main game wasn't great or anything. Just a little too easy for me. I wasn't stumped for more than 10 seconds and I kinda expected more challange.

Anyways, haven't even touched EP2 yet. Thinking of waiting till the weekend and putting in another 512MB of ram (making a total of 1GB of DDR 400, woo, nothing but high end shit here!) to get a more enjoyable experience. What do you guys think?

Wait 'till the weekend, Episode 2 will be hell otherwise.

Shiny version of Source is awesome... those who play Gmod 10 know what it looks like.

Been waiting for TF2 for sooooo long, finally, it's time to become a hermit once more...

Paid nothing but I'll buy the vinyl when it comes out

Bought this over four hours ago, I am very impressed with the amount of games but I am not happy that they are taking so long to download, maybe its because I haven't left them to long to download yet though, hopefully it will be done by tomorrow morning (probably anyway).

The game I am looking forward to the most in all the games is Team Fortress 2, it looks amazing but on the Pc I am using at the moment it won't look or play well

Apperently HL2: Episode Two is very good, I have yet to play that also as the downloading is quite slow.

I am very interested by how Portal will be, again I haven't been able to actually play it yet (out of all the downloads the ones that I have already got/played downloaded first).

 

[shaunj66]

Absolutely brilliant! HL2 has not aged at all. Still my FAVOURITE FPS of all time, it's just so good. Valve are champions indeed!

I've also completed Portal and all the advanced levels. Portal is one of the most fun and refreshing games I've played in a LOOOOONG time. It's an absolute gameplay marvel. The guys that coded this must be freaking geniuses . I can't wait for ep 3 or HL3 to incorporate the portal gun into real gameplay.

The robot, the boss fight and the ending of Portal are fantastic. The song is catchy as hell!
