Which christmas game? COD4 or Orange Box?

orange box got the best value in both sp and mp, while cod 4 only shine inmultiplayer, since the sp campaign is horribly short ( took me 3h30 to complete on normal difficulty, less than hl 2 episode 1)Franko_3

Don't be so harsh on CoD4's single player... it's probably the best in a game this year... Although I played it on Veteran on my first play through and it took me more like 10-12 hours.

I know I'll be asking for COD4 for Christmas. I heard the single player is short, but still fun. The real reason I want it is for the multi-player. I hear some of the unlocks are really cool...

CoD4 is better on consoles, and Orange Box is better on PC, but they're both amazing games. If you had to pick one, and it's for the PC, I'd go with Orange Box, but if it was for 360/PS3, it would definitely be CoD4.Sandro909

How is CoD4 better on consoles?

screw the orange box. if your into mp then cod4 is the way to go (btw sp is short but nonetheless its the most amazing short sp ever). it has over 9000 servers (pc) and not even a onth out. its definetly played better on pc.

Try to get both please! They both deserve it.

Orange Box: Well for SP you got HL2 with EP1 and EP2 and with a bit of Portal on the side. MP is TF2 (personally I don't like TF2 nor was I greatly impressed by EP1 and EP2. That said I was a fan of HL2 and Portal.

Call of Duty 4: SP as long as you do it on Hardened or Veteran, you have a good 8 hour+ amazing challenging fun expirence. Best SP I've played for a while. MP is also very strong, Great balance, maps, game types. Progression System and Unlocks to keep it intresting for a long time. MP is alot like a CQB version of BF2, in other words very fun :D

Overall: Get BOTH, However after having both I believe that Call of Duty 4 Is a better package.

I have both and it depends on what you're looking for...

TF2 is cool Portal is cool

I find myself going back to CoD4's multiplayer everytime. It's just so fun and refreshing.

I already played HL2 and ep1.

COD4!!!

neither of these games have a christmas themepete_merlin

okay, I'd go with the Orange Box, mainly because it's more unique than COD4. Plus the mods are freakin' awesome, Garry's mod is my fave. COD4 has terrific multiplayer...but for some reason it made we want to play Battlefield 2...not sure why.
