I don't really understand Half Life the original. I'm going to try Episode 1 and 2 later on, but right now Team Fortress 2 has me addicted. You'd think it'd get boring since it is kind of repetitive, but it doesn't. You play on different servers, with different people, with tons of different maps, with different mods, etc.

It's funny in some games, competitive in others, and just casual in a lot. Really great game. Half Life is supposed to be an amazing game, I just haven't really experienced it yet.

Portal is fun, I haven't played it too much but it was kind of challenging and addicting at first, and I expect it to get much, much harder later on.


I'd go with Orange box. As would all the gaming organizations, magazines, and statistics I know of. Ranking of the games are better, multiplayer on TF2 was given numerous awards that COD4 didn't earn yet, and it's called the best deal in the industry.

Orange box all the way. Get Cod4 later if you want it.

No, tf2 is not cell shaded, just has a-lot of good shading techniques to make it look cartoony without having to have cell shaded-ness

And if I were you, Id pick the orange box, just a better deal with a great puzzle game, a great mutliplayer game, 3 epic singleplayer games with all the mods you can get to go with them.

5 games in should keep you occupied for a couple of months and when you get all the mods added to it, you really cant turn it down. TF2 is one of the best Multiplayer game because you there is balanced classes and strategy and skills of the player's not but the team will lead you to victory. Also Half Life 2 is like Myst meets Doom I'd say. It's a really unique game it is really hard to explain hahah. You use physics to your advantage and you also use weapons to mow down groups of Combines. I can go on and on but trust me if you get the Orange Box you will NOTin anyway be making a bad purchase if anything Valve is selling themself short for such a great package.
