all

rock

my

socks

buy the orange box. play.

btw, if anyone wants a copy of just hl2, i have an extra one. when you buy the orange box, it comes with hl2. since i already HAD hl2, it gives me the option to "donate" my second copy. stupid valve.

Yep, I'll be grabbing the Orange Box as well and will have a "free" copy of HL2 to give away since I already owned it

Portal looks NUTS.

portal *is* nuts, dude. i seriously considered coming into work late so i could finish it. it is REALLY short, but it's fun. i finished 17 of 19 levels (not including the bonus levels) before work this morning, but it was a trip, and a few of them i got lucky on. it has a metric ton of mod potential.

Great to hear

I'm guessing they will release level packs for it. Is there multiplayer in it? I would think if they added some weapons it would be incredible for multiplayer.

no multiplayer. not yet, at least. but you won't need it. you'll be able to get your jollies playing with yourself.

*sits and waits*

Nah, that one's too easy.

I'll have to pick this up. The last PC game I played was Prey. So yeah... it's been a while.

Prey was fun but didn't have much replay value. after Portal , HL2, HL2 add-ons, there is still TF2 to enjoy. this has to be the best video game value evar!

IIRC the PC and 360 can play TF2 together. hope that works out, my PC is crap.

it's called TEAM fortress. you don't have room on the team for a 360 Medic?

chicken n waffles · Post by **chicken n waffles** » Thu Oct 11, 2007 12:47 pm

actually, you won't like medic in tf2. it's pretty lame.

soldier, sniper, demoman, hwguy... oontz. medic is relegated to healing teammates and lethal injections. no grenades (conc or frag) in tf2. lame at first but i don't really miss them, other than conc jumping.

That's it, I'll have to download this when I get home. I hope my Steam account still works.

Mr Kleen · Post by **Mr Kleen** » Thu Oct 11, 2007 1:29 pm

hmmm..... I enjoyed playing a Medic in more than a few FPS online games. I'm still gonna check this out and hopefully we can get a group together sometime.

Downloading the box now. 1.4MBps!!!! I <3 FiOS!!!!

I can't recommend Portal enough. if you play games at all, Portal is something you must at least try.

Rented it last night for the 360

Beat portal in an evening (man talk about lateral thinking... or rather... lateral, longitudinal, dimensional, and just about every other type of thinking) And I now have the weighted companion cube as my background and the ending song "still alive" playing right now

Beat episode 1 this morning, and I'm sitting at the repair shop in episode 2 at the moment.

I'd say they are a huge improvement over the original HL2 which didn't really impress me at all.

the writing is hilarious and almost as much fun as the portal gun itself.

some of my favorite from all the games

didn't have time to finish ep2 before I left yesterday, but I came back this morning and beat it. Excellent game. Really makes me want to pay ep 3 to find out what's next.
