So, who's excited for Half-Life 2: Episode 2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2? I certainly am. When October 9 rolls around, some CAA peeps should group up and play a few rounds of Team Fortress 2. Dibs on being engineer/heavy!

I am indeed looking forward to this. For the Leipzig Games Convention, they should be a releasing a trailer for the Soldier soon... much like the awesome Heavy Weapons Guy one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY5qJHZCz2I

Shameless plug: You guys should check out and join the CAA group on Steam-

That way we can organize a Team Fortress 2 weekend event or all-nighter for the release.

The Orange Box is a collection of games: Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episode One, Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Portal, and Team Fortress 2. It will be released on PC, 360, and PS3.

What's the difference between Orange box and Black Box?

I'll get the PS3 one if it's not a horrible port like FEAR... I mean, if there's a game I can play flawlessly on my PC that I can't play FLAWLESSLY on my PS3, they made a crappy port, plain and simple...

You have a PC, right? If you played Half-Life 2 on the PC, you should be able to play any content in the Orange Box. In fact, through Steam, you can purchase download the parts you want.

Well, the Black Box is no more. Originally, the Black Box was another collection that just had Half-Life 2: Episode 2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2. But Valve canceled distributing this collection.

As for the PS3 version, I am not too concerned. Valve, in traditional fashion, has been delaying this product for a while. There is no "rush" associated with this product.

However, I am getting the PC version. I prefer FPSes on the PC, and we need to have something to do on the CAA Steam community.

I'm looking forward to this release more and more. Also, a TF2 all-nighter sounds great.

'Course I know that. It's just that I'd also like to own it on the 360 as well. XD
