For $45 you get:

Half-Life 2
Half-Life 2: Episode One
Half-Life 2: Episode Two
Team Fortress 2
Portal

And if you already own HL2 (like I do) you can give away a copy to a friend. So Theresa gets a free copy. :)

That's a freakin' steal.

Very nice... tho I'll probably just see about getting it on my 360 (I've given up upgrading my damn computer every 6 months)

Granted, I'm building a new one right now (BFG i650Ultra board, e2160 to be O/C'd to ~3.2Ghz, with 4Gb ram on my old ATI 1900GT card) but eh... it's cheaper for me to just buy the games and play on my HDTV.

TF2 looks like it's going to be a hell of a lot like the original TF style gameplay (and it's made by the same guys IIRC)

I'll be getting it for sure...

funny this is brought up.

I just reinstalled the original half life. 'bout halfway through it. I think i'll probably pick up that orange box thing so Ican play ep. two.

that's a full single player game right? I don't really keep up on what comes out an stuff... I just like both half life's i've played.

TF2 is AWESOME. I've been playing the 'beta' pretty much non-stop.

You dont need 'the orange box' to get TF2 and Portal....you can get them separately iirc.

BTW - Episode 2 = ready for preload! :D
You are correct. But if you want to buy at least 2 of the titles, you might as well just go for the whole Orange box, and consider the rest to be freebies.

You can even transfer your old HL2 license to a friend.

2Fort is back with a vengeance - all new graphics, but still exactly the same design. And it's still super fun to play. I haven't been this happy with a game in a long time.
