The Orange Box - Gyroxus Game Chair

From GT: "http://www.Gyroxus.com is the ultimate full-motion game chair. It is easy to set up and fully adjustable for game players of all shapes and sizes. The smooth gliding controls allow you to become fully immersed in the game as your body controls each movement.

I had to help a consulting firm decide whether or not this product would go to Wal~Mart. It is not worth the time. It is basically false advertising, they let you think that the chair moves or controls things with your movement, but it's basically just a controller stuck to a support rod. Yeah, it moves when you do, but you have to force it, it's like a system of springs. If you watch their promos on the website you'll see pretty fast.

I can explain more about it if anyone needs to know for some reason.

Nothing but great memories with all these games! Playing Left for dead series during the college years with friends was the best.

Skull5212017d ago

Love to see titles coming to BC with enhancements. Would love even more to see Half Life 3.

gangsta_red2017d ago

To not have another Left 4 Dead is straight up criminal.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH2017d ago

How Valve released five of its greatest games in a single day

The year is 2007. Console owners tap their fingers in barely contained impatience. For years they have been starved of Valve's delicious, full-bodied courses, forced to watch from the bleachers as Valve mixes a unique blend of kinetic first-person with extraordinary tech. Besides a brief dalliance with the original Xbox and the PlayStation 2 - which produce pale imitations of its best work - Valve has remained faithful to the PC.

And then, in a flash, five of them arrive at once; neatly packaged morsels for a new generation reared on Microsoft's & later Sony's consoles. Five games, all in one orange box. Valve serves the PC too, for it is October 18 - a day of celebration - and everyone should feast.

Man 2007 was a great year for gaming.

OpenGL2381d ago

Valve didn't really "release" 5 of its greatest games in a single day, Half-Life 2 came out 3 years before The Orange Box. In no other context do we talk about a port being the "release" of a game.

The orange box was an excellent release. I don't think Valve will do much beyond online only games now.

AuraAbjure2381d ago

shut up valve....give me HL3....

FallenAngel19842390d ago

Back when Valve made a lot of great titles

-Foxtrot2389d ago

Little cheeky to talk about it when you know we're still waiting for Half Life 3...the Orange Box included Episode 2 and is still left unfinished story wise to this day.

At this rate we better get a second Orange Box. Half Life 3, Half Life Remake (Black Mesa Mod), TF3 or L4D3 and the HL spin offs like Blue Shift.

Reefskye2388d ago (Edited 2388d ago )

Don't know what valve are going to do with Half Life after Mike Laidlaw posted the short version of Episode 3 in August and changed the names and genders.
