now if only they did this for 360 in some way

I still don't understand why they axed the Black Box. I don't need to buy Half Life 2 and Half Life 2: Episode 1 AGAIN.

Also, I don't care for the TF2 beta since there's so much crap to play right now.

I like the Orange Box, it saves me the trouble of buying HL2 separately to play fucking Portal.

You can't cancel preorders on STEAM if you are thinking of preordering it just for the beta. If you are a stickler for physical media that is.

They made a solution for duplicate copies so your money isn't wasted. If you already have HL² and bought it again for the Black Box, you can give the game to someone else.

Why the fuck does this have to happen now when I haven't been able to upgrade my computer to play it yet : (

Can I still get into the beta even if I don't preorder it before Monday?

LAMBORGHINI FCUKER · 09-14-2007, 10:01 PM

Yes. Good till the day the Orange Box comes out.

Uhh . . . black box was HL2: Episode 2, Portal, and TF2. If you already missed HL2, what the fuck?

You see, that's fucking retarded. Also, everybody I know that is remotely interested in video games has already played through Half Life 2. It would just sit there and be wasted.

True, but you're still getting episode 2, portal, and TF2 for the price of one game.

Buy the orange box, play what you like, don't play what you don't like. It's that simple

Agreed, I've been playing alot of it since it came out.
I'm working on getting my "Hardcore" achievement right now.

I was just playing it and my team was winning. A Medic and a Heavy were trying to capture a single base no one was guarding so since I was a spy, I decided to go try and back stab them. As soon as I go there, there was another spy and we both back stabbed them at the same time. It was so fucking great.
