Orange Box 2 takes shape?

The Valve team recently confirmed (by accident) that a second Portal game is in the works (and Lombardi has since officially stated to CVG that "more Portal is coming"), so combined with the Counter-Strike sequel and Half-Life 2: Episode Three, could we be looking at the early stages of what might be an Orange Box Two?

2 - I dont disagree
Im a console fan but i have to put my hands up and say that HL2 is the best FPS ever made and CounterStrike Source is the best multiplayer FPS ever made, it was perfect.

I hope there is another Orange Box, i was disappointed that they didnt put a version of CS in the first one.

3 - Gabe said in that gametrailers interview
That the next counter-strike would be its own seperate game and not apart of another box deal...

I agree on Counter Strike but i wasn't a big fan of HL. I liked the first Half-life but wasn't struck on HL2. Maybe its because i didn't play HL2 and the expansions until recently but they didn't really do it for me.

I say add "Half-Life", "Half-Life: Opposing Force" and "Half-Life: Blue Shift" in the mix also. And the Orange Box 2 will be GREAT!!!

There won't be a Orange Box 2. The games that they are saying to be released in this 2nd box, are all good enough to have their own release individually,

Would someone really pay $50-60 for Portal 2?

It would have to be at least 4 times the length of the original, plus a lot of multiplayer options for replayability. One reason Portal was so great is because the price was *just right*.

I would of paid 50 - 60 bucks for the first Portal by itself even with the downsides you mentioned and I would glady do the same for the sequal.. while keeping my fingers crossed that they will have made #2 longer and kept the humor up to par with the first.

I would be extremely sad if we dont see another OrangeBox.

Why would Portal 2 have to be $50?

Portal is going to be sold on retail shelves soon for $20.

The first Orange Box sold so well that Valve would have to be a little insane to NOT think of SOME sort of collection for an Orange Box 2: Orange Harder.

well i bought oranage box just for TF2.. gave my extra copy of HL to my friend and same with my EP1.

so if another collection comes out it will suck for me.. i bought HL, HL2, DOD:SOURCE, and ORANGE BOX for my PC. so anything else will not be worth it for anyone in my shoes.. i wish i could just guy the components i wanted.. thats why i liked steam so much.. i could just buy DOD SOURCE without having to commit to anything else..

They better make the boxart better. There is no chance in hell someone who knew nothing about any of the games in the Orange Box was going to give it a try. Atrocious.

I can't wait for the new Counter-Strike! Bring it on Valve! I don't care if it comes out until 2009 or 2010, but make it look supersexy and play like CS1.6. ^___^

Also, please add MORE guns and maps. Thx. :P
