On the PS3 version will all the Half Life titles (HL2, Episode 1+2,Portal, Teamfortress all be on ONE Bluray disk?

While the Xbox360 version will obviously have to split disks?

Goddam DVD-9.

screenshots screenshots BLOODY SCREENSHOTS, i want the drn game not being told its delayed AGAIN and then being given more screenshots

BoneMagnus6280d ago

This fall is looking mighty crowded already and though this summer looks to be far better than last summer for the 360, I was banking on this for summer fun.

HL is one of the few franchises that could stand up to Halo 3, so it should be fine - as will MGS4, but other unknown quantities like Kane and Lynch, Timeshift and other new IP's could be seeing the bargain bin sooner rather than later.

I want the game as well but i can wait, there are alot of great games coming out this year and i can't afford to buy alot of the games coming out.

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

Skull5212015d ago

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

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

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.

OpenGL2379d 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.

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

FallenAngel19842388d ago

Back when Valve made a lot of great titles

-Foxtrot2387d 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.

Reefskye2386d ago (Edited 2386d 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.
