1. The Orange Box Review
   

   Player Chronicle -- Posted on Jan 06 2008

   The Orange box is 5 games in 1. The one disc contains: Half-life2, Half-life2 Episode1, Half-life2 Episode2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2. All of this games come included in the Orange Box.
   
   
   
   Half-life 2
   
   Anyone who hasn't played the Half-life series should pick this game up. The Orange Box includes the most complete Half-life 2 saga yet. You get Half-life2 and episodes 1 + 2. Half-life2 was a revolutionary game first released on the pc. Half-life is a first-person shooter that also has you solving puzzles. You use a gravity gun to solve some tough puzzles. All the characters in the game have amazing detail. The story will have you begging for more.
   
   
   
   Episode 1
   
   This isn't the best sequel to a game. It takes off where Half-life2 ended. Episode1 is Half-life2 but a lot shorter...REALY short. That's the only downfall to episode1.
   
   
   
   Episode2
   
   A big improviment on Episode1. This is a great sequel and a realy good game. This is much longer than Episode1 and much better. The action and puzles make Episode2 shine. This is what a sequel should be.
   
   
   
   Half-life2 - 9.0/10
   
   Episode1 - 7.5/10
   
   Episode2 - 8.75/10
   
   
   
   Portal
   
   In my mind, Portal is the best game in the Orange Box. Portal is a totaly original game. In Portal, you are a test subject using a portal gun to get pass puzles. Portal makes you think in new and inventive ways. I would buy this game for just this game!
   
   
   
   Portal - 10/10
   
   
   
   Team Fortress 2
   
   Not the best multiplayer game but still good. This is the best class based game on the market. Each class is very different from the next. From the spy who can cloak to get pass enemies to the soilder who uses rockets to blow enemise away.
   
   
   
   Team Fortress2 - 8/10
   
   
   
   Overall the Orange Box is well worth your $60. From the Half-life2 saga to Portal. The Orange Box has something for everybody. If you love first-person shooters or puzles this is a perfect game for you.
   
   
   
   Overall - 9.5/10
   
   Graphics - 9..25/10
   
   Sound - 9.5/10
   
   Gameplay - 10/10
