Abstract: It’s all very simple really. If you are interested in the contents of the Orange Box, and you just own a PS3 then you buy the game for that platform, it’s just that good. Sure, it is a slightly inferior version than the rest – with some crazy inexplica...
Abstract: Valve should feel positively dirty. Over three years ago, they released an Xbox version of the critically acclaimed Half Life 2. This version of Half Life was plagued by frequent load times and less than stellar graphics. Fast forward a couple of years an...
Quite possibly the greatest gaming value in history, or at least close to itConsole jockeys now will know the pleasure of Half-Life 2, et alPortal is one of the more memorable and original FPS experiences in yearsThe Half-Life games tell a story better th...
Driving in Half-Life is dismalPeople will complain about the controls, others will be glad to be keyboard freeYup, framerate issues again, the Xbox 360 version runs more smoothlyLoad times can be a drag, not too long, but close for a FPSThe cake is a lie

Abstract: The Orange Box is as close to a must buy title as it gets for PS3 owners. It features five incredible games that are worth buying individually; heck, for Team Fortress 2 alone, Id thrown in my first-born as well.
The HalfLife 2 saga represents some of the greatest shooter gameplay ever made, Portal is a brilliant and humorous puzzle game, Outstanding visual and audio design, An unprecedented value.
The frame rate struggles at times and the loading times are a bit long.
The Orange Box is one of the greatest values in gaming history, because its jam-packed with a variety of world-class content. ...
Twenty-plus hours of some of the best storytelling in gaming, plus Portal; PS3-exclusive quicksave feature comes in handy.
Problems with Team Fortress 2 drag it down; sporadic framerate and performance issues plague the entire package.
Theres little dispute that The Orange Box has been one of 2007s most eagerly anticipated titles. Its one of our highest-rated games this year for PC and Xbox 360, thanks to the craftsmanship of both Valves storytelling and the developers technical...
