the orange box port

ive been strongly considering buying the prange box, mainly for TF2, bu ive heard a lot about the PS3 versions faults. Is it really that bad? i have an xbox, but im not paying for my online so thats ruled out, and i dont play PC games, so PS3 is the only version.. it got 9/10 on gamespot, and that is by no means a bad score.. is it that bad that its not worth getting?

It's not bad, but it's just soooooooooo much better on the PC. All Valve games should be played on the PC since they're supported best there. TF2 on the PC gets all kinds of crazy updates pretty frequently and I highly doubt the PS3 has very many of the updates, if any. I know it's not on the PS3, but Left 4 Dead is a perfect example of why Valve games are better on the PC. They get all the DLC for free that the 360 owners have to pay for. Plus the game is $10 cheaper to start with anyway.

So if you have a decent PC (it doesn't even have to be great) you should get it for the PC. If you don't, it's still a great game. Half-Life 2 is my favorite game of all time and Portal is hilarious :D

i use to own ob on the 360 i also beat all episodes and put over 50 hrs into tf2 on xbox live .the differences betwwen the 360&ps3 is the framerate is more unstable on the ps3. and the colors are darker and washed out on the ps3&load times longer also.the ps3 version of ob is still good and playable. the ps3 port only seems really bad if you played the 360 version first!! and then went to the ps3 version and see how ea screwed up on the port but its still a great game on the ps3 and its still playable.

[QUOTE="tommyas"]I dont have the OB but at ign the review says loading times are horrible. Particularly in Portal, they mentioned 17 seconds after dying. That sounds very bad imo. CDuG

OMG 17 seconds!! That's almost 1/3 of a minute that you will NEVER HAVE AGAIN!!!!

Spoiled. Effing. Gamers.

Fair enough. I won't argue. I've never played the game and I shouldn't make assumptions about you.

I just noticed that every response I've been putting up in the last few minutes is pretty dick-ish. My bad...

This is certainly one of the best video game deals of all time. You get so much games. At first, I purchased this game just for Team Fortress 2, but after I attempted to play the other great games on the disc, I fell in love with them and realized what a great deal it is. You can purchase this game for 20 dollars at gamestop. I hope this helped :D

Its' on my wish list but I'll be getting the PS3 version when I do. I hate PC gaming because I hate having to upgrade my PC all the time and how frequently it crashes. Basically I hate the PC lol.
