5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Value, Great Games, 6 Feb 2008
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
First of all, don't listen to the people moaning about Steam. It's easy to use and as long as you've got better than dial-up internet you've got nothing to worry about.

OK, onto the games. You get the original Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode 1, Half-Life 2: Episode 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2. 5 games for around £25! Bargain!

Half Life 2 is still, in my opinion, a great looking game and the good thing is you don't need a particularly high spec PC to play it. When I first played this I was blown away by the AI. Throwing bottles at security guards is particularly entertaining. The story is interesting and the main characters are surprisingly engaging; I actually cared what happened to them.

Episode 1 picks up right where Half Life 2 left off, and although quite short, is full of action and will keep you playing.

Episode 2 is relatively short too, but equally as fun. The forest environment is stunning and the action sequences are fantastic.

Portal is a quirky, original puzzle game, which although quite short is very re-playable.

Finally you have Team Fortress 2, a class-based multiplayer game. To be honest, I haven't really got into this. After reading a load of hype about it I thought I'd try it but I have to say it was quite dissapointing for me. Probably more suitable for online multiplayer fans.

Overall, The Orange Box is a must have for any gamer, and at such a cheap price, you can't go wrong.

4.0 out of 5 stars Read the rest for how good the game is but read mine and be warned!, 28 Oct 2007
By A. Steele (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This is an excellent game and I would highly recommend it. I would like to add a word of warning about this though.
The game installs through the steam network, for those of you that don''t know what this is it is an online system that means that you need to be connected to the internet to install the game, from all the reviews I have seen if this is mentioned then it is not made clearly enough for people, which is why I am giving the warning now.
Once the games have installed and you have waited for all five games to install to 100% then you don't for normal gameplay need to be logged onto the internet.
Once the games have installed then you can play as normal, I thought I would mention this though as if you haven't got an internet connection then unfortunately this game would be useless to you. It does mention this on the back of the box but in all honesty how many people scrutinise this before they buy a game.
Read the other reviews though for how good the actual games are.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bloody germans..., 16 Feb 2009
By Bloody german;-) (Munich, Germany) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Bought it in the UK, because the german version is censored... and what is a shooter without blood, hm? However, i liked it very much - even more than HL 1. What else is to say? 4 1/12 (lost coast is just a short level) games at a good price.
And the best is: even with shipping i spent less than if i had bought it in germany;-)
