People who only own the PS3 really are unlucky. "Orange-you" glad you bought a 360?? lol

You may want to mention this is for Half Life 2 Orange Box :)

The problem about the PC version is, most people will already have the original HL2 and probably episode one so orange box is pretty much useless.. shame for the ps3 owners! :P the new episode 2 is meant to be amazing though, can't wait to play it :P

lol sux - no cs in there tho - i dont have either consoles so it doesnt matter much to me lol :-) - nice ending :D

[lonewolfxix]

well even more people would have CS lol, the TF2 game looks awesome and portals.

well u cant play cs between two differnt consoles so i dont really care lol, but if you could have that would have been AWESOME

But with HL on the PC do you get portal free?

[lonewolfxix]

Portals comes with the half life 2 episode 2 game, yes
When you buy Half Life 2 Episode 2 you get Portals and Team Fortress 2.

Half Life 2 was out before the Xbox. Most people who are into the series already have atleast one of the games so the orange box is pretty useless to them.
You can go buy HL2 for ?15 and it comes with CS:S you can buy ep2 for ?20 when it comes out and HL2 ep1 for ?10 which equals more but more than likely the pc users will already have atleast HL2 or ep1

The orangebox is just the series so far including all packaged games except counter strike source as they'll get more money if they sell it seperate and the fact it's not related to half life atall besides the engine.
