Product Description:
With part 3 of the Half-Life saga in the horizon, this collection brings you from the start so you're ready to take on the third episode of this exciting trilogy. Half Life earns its popularity and reputation at being the first First Person Shooter game to use aq lifelike, realtime plot that pits you in the action as well as behind the trigger. Created by Valve Software, each episode employs advanced technologies for better, more realistic play. In Half-Life, you assume the role of Dr. Gordon Freeman, a recently graduated theoretical physicist who must fight his way out of an underground research facility whose teleportation experimentations have gone awry. The second part of the trilogy of episodic expansions for Half-Life 2, Episode Two picks up where Episode One left off?with Gordon and Alyx traveling out of City 17 and into a vast new environment.
The player again picks up the crowbar of research scientist Gordon Freeman, who finds himself on an alien-infested Earth being picked to the bone, its resources depleted, its populace dwindling. Freeman is thrust into the unenviable role of rescuing the world from the wrong he unleashed back at Black Mesa. And a lot of people people he cares about are counting on him.Intense, real-time gameplay of Half-Life 2 is made possible only by Source, Valve's new proprietary engine technology
Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Luved it
This game pack is great. HL was a tad short but portal makes up for it. Portal it self is worth the price of the orange box.
Rating: - Good Fun
Good fun, portal was very interesting and mind boggling, which gave a good challenge and made you think outside the box on some instances.TF2 is fun, but as online play goes, it's as fun as the people that plays it, too many immature kids playing it for my taste on the open server.And thinks they're cool, by uttering profanities every other word.
Half Life 2 is ok, didn't care much for the storyline, it just didn't grab me.
Rating: - Portal rocks!
Anything connected to Half Life 2 is, of course, awesome. But Portal really is just something altogether different. Such a completely awesome game for people like me. I would describe it as part Myst/Riven and part shooter. Which, to me, is perfect.
Rating:  - never again
Tried for 4 days to install, but thanks to valve's DRM and steam, I never could get it to run. And couldn't return the game to wal-mart or resell it on ebay, so my $40 game ended up in the wood stove. I will never buy a game from valve or steam again.
Rating: - What a nightmare
Got it out of the box when I got home, excited about playing Portal.Plugged it in, I get nothing but an account prompt.Okay, that's fine, I had a Steam account years ago.Type in my username and password.Okay, doesn't work, that's weird.Okay, so I do the password retrieval.Hours go by.Nothing in my e-mail.I try to create a new account.I'm sorry, your e-mail is already being used!Your account name is already taken!
Frustrating, no fun to be had here, waste of time. ... Read More
