Played some of the orange box last night, namely HL Episode 2 and Portal. The graphics improved quite a bit with this new HL episode, or it could just be my new computer, but either way the game looks great. I've only played for about half an hour, but I prefer the real environments, like a forest, outside etc, more so than the futuristic building settings. I look forward to playing some more.
Portal is a very cool game. I can't wait till people start developing levels for this game. It's almost limitless in the possibilities of puzzles one could create. The voice over was slightly annoying at first, but then was quite fitting and entertaining as the game went on.
And of course in between those games I am beating up on noobs in TF2, which is a blast. I was hoping they were going to release some new maps when the game launched, but as far as I can tell they didn't. Ah well, I am sure they will release some in the near future.
