The Orange Box was the best game purchase I have made in at least five years, and that's in large part due to the sheer awesome of Portal, which I consider to be easily the best game of 2007 (although to be fair, my graphics card is poo so I never got to play Bioshock). Excellent puzzles, just the right length, and a wonky, dark sense of humor made it a truly excellent experience. The other part of its awesome is TF2, which as I once mentioned in my LJ is just about the most fun you can have at your computer while still wearing pants. :-) Jim Valve rules Maru _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
