Zero Punctuation: The Orange Box
- Thread starter Yahtzee Croshaw
- Start date
I haven't had the chance to play any Half-Life games, but my boyfriend does have this game. He bought it after we both saw this review. Keep up the good work. ^__^
Was portal really that great? I trusted your review and went out and bought the Orange box...basically only for Portal. I'm hoping it's as great as you claim.Yahtzee Croshaw said:
I'm starting to trust your gaming opinions over most of the other game reviewers out there
(based on the fact that you have the nuts to talk shit about Halo 3, and everyone else is too scared to really speak their minds about it).

I'm 99% sure that was an intentional misspelling. If my memory serves me correctly, I believe he wrote his name as Gordan Freemon.
Ok I am not much into for FPS... but aafter this review I GOT to have The Orange Box *_*(moves like a zombie towards nearest game store...)
Ah, yes...the FYI I am a spy clip. It's fun,tried it, works, not for long.Agent_4 said:
This episode is awesome just like all the others, hope I haven't already posted this forum, can't remember.
I hate half life and portal what a load of boring crap make a hole in a wall walk through make a hole in another wall walk through.
Look, we all respect people's opinions, some people will find HL2 boring, I didn't find it boring. This game has high production values and people seem to ignore them, some people say that this game is highly over-rated, it is over-rated in the slightest but not to much.
Portal for me was really fun, I can't believe why people don't like it. Sure, there are some boring areas but that doesn't retract from the experience.
And one more thing for residentsteve:
This game is considered as an excellent piece of game design and manufacture. And no, it is not perfect. No game is. You don't like the game? Wonderful, good for you. You have your own reasons, which are, as far as I can tell, that you don't care for the setting and production design. This doesn't make it a bad game, nor over-rated. That simply means you guys don't like it.
EDIT: I suspect that the people who post why they hate HL2 can be people who think that this game doesn't suit their taste, which makes me to wonder why the hell did they picked it up in the first place. Buying a game without looking it first is a terrible idea...

I say that he chose the correct words for Portal. Team Fortress 2, I would say that as well. Now Half-Life 2 is pretty much a pass time, for me. I can't get past the one car. Can't care now that I moved on. There is one thing I forgot to mention, I am singing the end song to Portal, during the talent show! Thank you.
