Title: Just downloading Orange box
Post by: Martin_1962 on 15 November 2010, 23:56:34

Will be an all nighter, mainly wanted to play Portal.

This will be on the PC so have something to do during noentity and xcraptor.

Quite cheap to

Decided on PC rather than console as the port is supposed to be terrible.

:y :y :y

fantastic game - that haunting weird song at the end, when you finish still freaks me out a bit  ;)

cant wait for the sequel, the rest of the orange box i played to death too, except the cartoony shooter, but the half lifes and portal are awesome  :y

I started trying to get back into FPS games with Quake Live (Quake 3, in a browser, for free!) and CS: Source ..

I've discovered that you get out of practice real quick at these things! All I can do in CS: Source is die, quickly - at least in QL I can stay alive long enough to not rank bottom ;D

Trying to fit in gaming amongst all of the crud everyone else wants to watch is quite awkwards.

This is why I needed some PC games.

Ahhhh poor little PS3 being ignored :'( :'( :'( :'(

My PS3 is not really used for games, but more for Media Center/watching iPlayer on big screen/BluRay/ background music at dinner parties

Too used to the PC controls to get my head around PS3/Xbox controllers  :(

I very rarely play anything else but Uncharted 2 - far and away the best game I have ever played. Most nights I go on multiplayer, and I am getting quite good, for anyone who cares level vii (57).

Controls feel natural enough.

Had a go on Portal - pretty good.

TV is now available time for a couple of deathmatches on UC2
