i hope they are talking about framerate issues

CaliGamer5899d ago

With multiplayer? I thought Team Fortress was part of the bundle, how does that play?? EA can sure F##K some SH!T up, but Valve is also to be blamed as they allowed this travesty to occur.

I guess on the bright side they are trying to improve on what they initially shipped, it's just sad that it had to be as flawed as it was to begin with especially in the wake of games from Infinity Ward.

the Half Life series is one of the best series in gaming history. and Team Fortress 2 is such a great MP game. i got my OB on xmas and i still play it everyday. such a great gaming deal with great games.

Mr_Kuwabara5899d ago

I bought the original Half-Life for PS2 back in the day. It was pretty bad@$$. The end left me with a WTF face though.

Ri0tSquad5899d ago

For the PS3 owners that brought this. There was so much complaining with Team Fortress 2's online.

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

Skull5212014d ago

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

gangsta_red2014d ago

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

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH2014d 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.

OpenGL2378d 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.

AuraAbjure2378d ago

Valve reflects on The Orange Box, ten years later

Robin Walker discusses the impact of Portal, Team Fortress 2 and more.

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

FallenAngel19842386d ago

Back when Valve made a lot of great titles

-Foxtrot2385d 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.

Reefskye2384d ago (Edited 2384d 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.
