Half Life 2 Orange Box Xbox 360 Game EA

Pros: HL2; AMAZING STORY, sooo into it. Even comes with add ons! I love how it's so free feeling yet keeps you into the story soo well and has every aspect of gaming (Shooter, puzzle, driving, ANYTHING).
TF2; Cut sooo much back, but still awesome to play with friends.
Portal; A fun, calming game just to sit and occupy yourself.

Cons: Sometimes on HL2 I couldn't for the life of me figure out where to go.
And TF2 on here is completely horrid, still fun with friends but compared to Pc...just no.

Other Thoughts: BUY THIS.

Pros: I bought this game a long time ago and I still play it. The Half Life 2 storyline is phenomenal, replayable, and unique. Its definitely worth more than $20 on its own.

Portal, just blows my mind. Its imo the best puzzle game out there. Definitely replayable with the challenges they throw at you and just for the shear fun of it.

Team Fortress could of used a little work but I think they did well with the graphics and some mechanics.

Cons: There arn't any really. All I can think of is Half Life 2 gets pretty challenging, but that isn't really a con...

Other Thoughts: This is a must have for anyone that owns an xbox 360 that enjoys thinking fps games.

Pros: ~Amazing graphics (if you can run it)
~Incredibly addicting
~Half-Life 2 (& eps. 1 & 2) truly live up the the bar set by the original Half-Life
~Portal, I think that should be worth $20+ on its own
~And if you haven't figured it out yet your getting 5 games for $20!!!

Cons: ~campaign in the half-life games can be slow and boring at times (but can't that be said for all games?)
~Portal can become very stressful very fast if you have a short temper and you flat out suck
~Team fortress 2 is really cartoon-ish, I don't really like that part of it but the game in itself is great.

Other Thoughts: I bought this over a year ago and I'm still playing it, need any more be said?

Pros: Uhmmm.... I really wish this wasn't a required category. There is literally no reason to buy this game.... Well I suppose one pro would be to tell your teammates online how horrible this game is.

Cons: Finally! Okay FIRSTLY... has anybody that played this game ACTUALLY seen the what there eyes were resting upon? These graphics are disgusting. As my fellow game reviewer told me, "I want to never rest my eyes upon those CARTOONS again." Luckily, because we threw this game down a well, we will never have to again. SECONDLY... Balance. Many games try.... many games fail. But please, PLEASE someone tell me how this game was released???? If you enjoy there being one class that is capable of being successful, while the other classes are all gimmicks, then my friend pick yourself up a copy of TF2. Oh and while your at it, check yourself in for therapy. This game is SO incredibly unbalanced that unless if you a certain class (the annoying scout class of course) you will surely have absolute lose. THIRDLY.... the online community. Every single game I played with someone there were people swearing. As a father of two young girls who like to watch me play, this is unacceptable.

Other Thoughts: I know what you thinking.... turn off you speakers then! Oh I dream of being able to turn off my speakers so as to not have to hear the disgusting sounds the characters make. Unfortunately, if you can't communicate with you teammates, you lose.

In conclusion, this developer (Valve) might possibly be THE WORST developer to ever create video games. In fact I am confident the local kindergarteners could teach them a thing or too about good graphics. Surely finger painting would surpass these "cartoons." If you bought this game, DO NOT return it! Do humanity a favor , and destroy your disc.

Pros: Five games for $20: only four dollars a game
good graphics

Cons: none

Pros: It has the Half-Life Engine but no Half-Life will be as awesome as the original. Team Fortress 2 is fun to play online. I hear Portal is fun, I have not gotten to it yet though. 5 games in one, is a pretty good steal though.

Cons: Not as good on 360 as it is on PC.

Pros: 5 games for $20? Yes please! Great deal for some great games.

Cons: Team Fortress has few players online and it wasn't much fun. Although Valve makes great games the engine they use always gives me headaches after an hour of playing but this is more of a personal Con.

Pros: Portal
Team Fortress
Half-Life 2 and expansions

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: This is an amazing deal. Each game is amazing. Portal, in particular, is unique and extremely well done. Even without TF, this package includes many hours of gameplay. Well worth it.

Pros: Still a great game after all these years, I don't usually play games twice, but played HL2 again so I would understand the episodes. Portal is pretty fun too.

Cons: Don't really care for TF2. I played TF for the original a little, and I'm just not all that impressed with the sequel. I also had pretty bad lag the few times I played, so that might have skewed my opinion. I play COD4 for my fps multiplayer fix anyways.

Other Thoughts: Still, easily worth $19.99

Pros: -5 games for $19.99? Are you kidding?

-You can't go wrong with Half-Life and its amazing storyline (10/10)

-Portal is a new and unique type of game that is worth playing through many times (9/10)

-Team Fortress 2 took me awhile to get used to, but once you get the feel for it and all the classes, it gets REALLY addicting (9.5/10)

Cons: -The only negative thing I can think of is the controls. Since these games were designed for play on pc, there is a little bit of a conflict for play on the 360. But, you can completely customize the controls and change button assignments in all the games to whatever you are most comfortable with

Other Thoughts: -I bought Halo 3 with this, but all of my time has been spent on the Orange Box

-Valve could have sold all of these games by themselves and made ALOT more money
