...Oh wait.
OT: Who still plays OrangeBox?
I do! TF2!
This didn't really click with me. TF2 is multiplayer so who cares about that. The Half-Life's were just dull and monotonous. Does no one realise that the games are just one long sewer level? I think a major contributor was my motion sickness but I only get that with this game.
On the flip side, Portal rocked seventy layers of my socks so I got Still Alive for eternal playthroughs.

TF2 on 360 is decent, on PC that thing kicks everyones ass, including everyones beloved Halo or CoD and Portal is indeed several flavors of awesome but HL2? Booooring.
although this is an old video i still want to say that thanks for telling us about jonathan coulton he is bloody amazing also i have never really played portal but i still thought the story and game play was amazing
Ok, so I finally got The Orange Box (I know, I know, I'm 3 years late, whatever. I have a Mac, portal was just released for it yesterday) and Portal blew my f***ing MIND. Of course, a large amount of the story had been spoiled for me, but I had never watched a YouTube video of the ending, never seen actual gameplay until a few weeks ago. I avoided most of the whole "The cake is a lie" thing, due to not having any friends who play PC games, so that didn't piss me off too much. The only complaint I really had was how long the last level was. Admittedly, I could have stopped at any time, but I knew I was almost done and I wanted to get to the balls-tighteningly fantastic ending. Anyway, this game is great, and the rest of the Orange Box should be fun too when it's finally released for Mac...
Orange box does indeed have cool games. Half life 2, Team Fortress 2 and portal is the best games i've ever played. On TF2 there is a lot of achievements to do and you can get new weapons by doing achievements for that class you play as. The pyro is fun to be if you like FIRE! ^_^
When are you people that keep saying "I'm the last person to comment!" going to realize that you are ALWAYS the very last person after leaving a comment? Until someone else comments, that is. In which case, you are no longer the last person. So seeing as your comment remains while additional comments are added...please stop.
That being said... great review.
