Play of the Week - The Orange Box (Portal)

This weekend I finally got some time to dig into The Orange Box and you can tell from this article that there’s at least one gem inside.  Half-Life 2 and Team Fortress 2 are both very good but the game that stands out amongst them all is Portal.  I talked about it a bit during Episode #51 because it’s just that much fun.

I’ll be checking out more of Team Fortress 2 this week so stay tuned for a possible Unscripted Nights with it!  In the meantime, check out the Play of the Week, Portal, if you have a copy of The Orange Box.  The aperture gun, creating portals and solving puzzles is incredibly addictive.

    Portal is the main reason I want the Orange box, I watched the clip on Xbox.Com for that and I’m excited about trying that game. An unscripted night of TF2? You guys are going to make this hard on me. My next game purchase will be CoD4, I might have to wait till Christmas for the Orange Box. :(

    I vote a TF2 unscripted night! I have yet to try TF2 though. I played through Portal and am now playing through HL2 (which I never played before).

    For non-orange-box-people like me, its a pretty neat sollution for a few hours.

    Portal = greatest single player game since Super Mario Bros. I have been addicted to this game, i just want more, if lots of user content starts coming out for the PC on this one i will be forced to repurchase this for the PC. There is alot of replay value with what is there so dont let my comments deter you from purchasing this for the 360. The medals are very hard to get, though they sound rather easy at first they just wont give me my cake =(.

    THE CAKE IS A LIE!

    also interesting easter egg (www.aperaturescience.com) the information you need for this is in the game, the webpage i found in the manual…enjoy
