Edmonton Sun/Canoe reviews The Orange Box:
It doesn't come in a helmet-shaped collector's case suitable for tormenting pets, and there are no pewter figurines, cloth maps or making-of DVDs inside. But The Orange Box could well be this year's -- nay, this decade's -- ultimate compilation of unadulterated gaming goodness.
Bottom Line: This five-in-one Half-Life 2 anthology offers huge bang for your gaming buck, and the inclusion of Team Fortress 2 and the innovative Portal make it a must-own.
