That include the PS3 version of The Orange Box, or is it just PC games, or is The Orange Box just plain not being sold anymore? =P

Wikipedia is considering blanking out its pages as protest if the "Stop Online Piracy Act" passes.

Wow. Not like they'd have any choice, if I remember what SOPA includes correctly.

[mtmerrick]

do it wikipedia!

SOPA should not be called The Stop Online Piracy Act, it should be called "Destroy The Internet Act" - because that's what it'll do.

While it's a drastic move, I wouldn't necessarily disagree... I mean, SOPA wants everything copyright-related taken down... So, technically they'd be 'complying'... Just acting in protest.

Promise me

That you will never, ever buy the console version of a Valve game

Except maybe the PS3 version of Portal 2

And the PS3 version of Counter-Strike: GO will probably be all right but it's not confirmed how it will work out yet

But other than that no

ESPECIALLY not the PS3 version of the Orange Box

Because that was an awful port, it's really glitchy

Orange Box can be found for PC and Mac on Steam for $19.99, though one of the games (TF2) is F2P. It's the best version of the Orange Box as well.

As I recall, though, you already have Portal. All there really is to get is 3 Half-Life games, in which case you'd be better off buying Half-Life Complete for $29.99. It includes ALL the Half-Life games, including HL Deathmatch: Source and HL2: Lost Coast, which are not advertised on the store page for it. In addition, it includes Team Fortress Classic.

I'm just curious about it; given that I don't have a PS3 to begin with. =P I did hear about the glitches, and was intrigued about that slightly. Wasn't fully certain what it entailed. =P But yeah, I likely won't, unless I'm really stuck for games.

I might get the Half Life complete if I go the PC route though(But given that I'd need a better computer, that might take a little while).

In fact, I still need to even play Portal... Should try that when I get back(And finish Half Life 2. =P).

On that note, however, I've been playing the Xbox version of Half Life 2. And it's honestly not bad, aside from a couple framerate drops in some areas. Not the worst game I've played though, but I bet that the PC version would be flawless all over the place, minus graphics depending on what PC I play it on. =P But, that said, it's not mine, so... =P

Now, question, HL2 has multiplayer, right? If so, then I know exactly what the XBox dropped to get everything to work well. =P

Remember though, PS3 is not the source of the glitch, I just got Lego Star Wars 3, clone wars for Ps3 and windows, I let you know how it turns out.

[Magical Girl Mimi]

60492

Oh, it's not the PS3 itself; it's the fact that EA did a horrible, horrible job porting The Orange Box. =P

[Legodac]

Which is why you can`t believe what

The GoldSrc engine games (Half-Life, Opposing Force, Blue Shift, Team Fortress Classic) should work fine even on an older computer. I can't make any guarantees about Source games.

Also the console versions of TF2 suck. No unlockable items, no upgrading dispensers or teleporters, and worst of all no hats, which are the whole point of the game anyways.

Half-Life 2's multiplayer is a separate Steam game called Half-Life 2: Deathmatch.

I can say that Half Life works on an old laptop; I've played it before(But a virus killed the computer I was using to play it, so...)

Ah, I see. That's too bad. =/ I'm assuming you can't use a controller on the PC versions? Though, technically I don't know why that would be wanted, since the mouse and keyboard variant is one of my more preferred methods...(The Dual analog method isn't all that bad, however, I must admit. Better when it's in the Gamecube/Xbox style, however.)

And ooh, I didn't know that it was separate. That makes sense.

Controllers are compatible with Source games, no idea about GoldSrc. Mouse+keboard is still better though.

Alright then, was just curious. I definitely agree that it's better, though it'd be nice for a change once I actually, you know, start playing it on the PC. =P
