 ... their knees. He is helped by Alyx, a resistance fighter, and this is just a thrilling game from start to finish that's got superb set pieces and thankfully works on fairly low end systems due to some clever graphics optimisation. Half Life 2: Episodes 1 and 2 - there were many questions left unanswered at the end of Half Life 2, and so Episodes 1 and 2 attempt to rectify them. Rather than full-length games like Half Life 2, these episodes play out like "one-shots", and last about 4-5 each. While their value ...more

Premium Review Half-Life 2: The Orange Box (PC): With Teamwork, You Cannot Lose! (1396 words)

Team Fortress 2 is the highly anticipated multiplayer shooter than has been in development since 1998. So was it worth the wait? Team Fortress 2 is the multiplayer component of Valves Orange Box, as its name suggests it's a team based shooter but it doesn't involve any fort building! (Slightly off topic but for an awesome fort building game check out SourceForts). Once you load up the game you are greeted with the main menu, from here you can access the server browser which is how you will get into games. The game is immensely popular on the PC and there are currently a whopping 1988 servers to choose from. You can also access all the usual things like video ...  Read the complete review

This is a must have for every gamer, for someone who had never played any half life before i bought the orange box going only by good reviews. And i was not dissapointed either. Ibought this game for £35 at game only to see that next week it was on offer at £17 i think. Anyway i would have hapily parted with £50 because inside are 5 great games: Half life 2 (Hl2), HL2 Episode 1, Hl2 Episode 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2. All of these games are great however i have not got round to Hl2 Ep2. --Half Life2-- This game follows on from half life 1 with the main character gordon freeman trying to escape from city 17. Gameplay is pleasing with the weapons not ...  Read the complete review

The orange box, for PC and XBOX360, is a collection of Half-life 2 games. It includes: > Half-Life 2 > HL2 : episode 1 > HL2 : episode 2 > Portal > Team fortress 2 And let me start by saying, dont be put off if you already own any of these titles, as i had HL2 before i bought the orange box, and upon installation, valve (the creators of steam), allow you to give your current copy to a friend, and register it to thier steam account. Right then, for those who are not at all familiar with HL2, it is the sequel to the no.1 best seller FPS (first person shooter). The game is aging a bit now at nearly 4 years, but you cannot ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review Team Fortress for you (2029 words)

I've got a confession to make. A few months ago, I sat here in front of my PC screen and tapped out a review of The Orange Box. I gleefully chatted about the five Valve first-person shooter games collected together in this compilation. I waxed lyrical about the mature storyline of Half-Life 2, the ingenuity of Half-Life 2 Episodes One and Two, the diabolical evil genius of Portal and... well, I think I might have mentioned Team Fortress 2. Truth was, I didn't want to play Team Fortress 2. It was a strictly online experience, and I was intimidated by the concept of having to work as a team with experienced players when I hadn't ever played the game before. They would call ...  Read the complete review

The Orange Box is easily one of the best games you can get for your money, given how it contains within it five full-length games, yet retails for the same price as most PC games (and can be bought now for about £15)! For anyone wanting to get into the Half Life saga, this is a great place to begin. The games are: Half-Life 2 - the hugely successful sequel to the most acclaimed PC game of all time, Half Life 2 reunites us with Gordon Freeman once again, as he attempts to bring the nefarious government forces that are opressing the public to their knees. He is helped by Alyx, a resistance fighter, and this is just a thrilling game from start to finish that's ...  Read the complete review
