EP3, I believe, is going to release alone. The PC will get its usual treatment.

I think it would be great if Valve did one of two things regarding consoles however: either they release Ep3 on disc for $20 at retail, or, and this would be much better, Valve could, possibly, release Ep3 as a downloadable on Marketplace and the Playstation Store.

What Valve can't do is leave behind their newfound console user base and fail to release EP3 anywhere other than PC.

They might include something like portal 2 or something. I think that would be pretty cool to have.

Again, I'm nearly positive that Portal 2, or whatever name such a product might take... that Portal 2 will be released independently. I don't think we're going to see another Orange Box for quite some time; I daresay, until Half-Life 3.

I dont know about titles like CS:S, DoD:S - as they seem like titles that woudlent work well at all on a console - let alone gamepad (CSX primary example).

If anything I think Valve should try a new MP ip, that suits consoles and the PC platform, if they were to release a new 'box' of gaming goodness.

CS worked on console and it had a fairly big community (back in the day), and i think a console version would be great for them.....

Oh I strongly disagree. CS on Xbox felt unnartrual and akward compared to the PC Original - and simply seemed to not suit the system at all - compared to somthing like Halo.

"The Turquoise Box : Hey, you guys bought the other box named after a colour so why would we not continue this idiotic trend? Oh, and look for our other hit sequel, 'We think Source is next-gen: But we're idiots, so... Meh'"

Yeah, that's the title of the hit sequel that'll be not much of a hit.

Lol!! Something like that came to my mind.

Contents of the Grapefruit Box:

HL: Source

CS: Source

Half Life 2

Episode 1

Episode 2

Episode 3

Portal 2 (which will only last for about 1 hour)

Team Fortress 2 Map Pack Expansion (2 new maps)

And it will cost around 70 bucks...

I already see that one coming. Gordon saves earth, the identity/agenda of the Gman is never revealed, and he puts Gordon back in stasis "just in case" something goes wrong in the future (again)
