1.1 - Did this game come...
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.

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.

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

Orange Box plays best on PC, should of gotten it on that. Free map pack out now and class updates like Overheal for Medics.

3 disagrees and no one replies? Tell me how I am wrong? At least say why you disagree. I see nothing biased about it. It's a fact. Source engine has been optimized for even the lowest ends of PC's.

once they fix the framerate issues (and they will, i have faith in valve's customer relations) they need to allow for keyboard and mouse support... rocket jumping isn't nearly as effective with the controller

I never notice framerate issues, but if they fix the TF2 online and the load times I'll be very happy!

10 - I just don't get it
Besides slightly longer than normal loading times and a small framerate glitch now and then, I've had no trouble with Orange Box on my ps3. I have yet to play Team Fortress, but the other four have shown me no problems.

I am with you man. Maybe they are patching the load times other then that there are no major problems with the game. Also TFT 2 played fine for me online. Only problem is not many people play this game on PS3. Anyways I didn't like TOB at all. Portal was kinda cool but that's it for me.

12 - I have finished everything in the "box"
except TF2 as it wouldbe impossible to "finish", and the only time there were any frame rate issues were directly after a loading and it would like ramp up to full speed, but never durring gameplay.

I think EA did a pretty good job, and the on;y people complaining about frame rate issues are people that don't own it.

The framerate issues came from the reviews. I didn't want to risk the chance of paying $60 for a game that wasn't performing well. Long story short, if this patch does indeed fix the problems plaguing this version, it will definitely be purchased.

EA - For a long time they have been known as the company that rushes titles out the door unfinished and left unpatched in the following months. With this upcoming patch I'd like to give you a Hi-5 from a distance for a job well done. I hope this isn't a one time effort to save what little face you have.

Ubisoft - hope your paying attention.

the feel of the game is really jittery

the only thing that really bothers me though is the horrendous load times, they really are too long

WAY TOO LONG!!

16 - I was possibly
going to get this game but with some of the bad things I heard, I turned away. If the patch actually does fix somethings I may reconsider.
