Yo mates! I'm looking for a game that has a long singleplayer and a great storyline. I play mostly intense FPS games and I'd like to have some change. Instead of running and gunning and blowing stuff up all the time, I want something different. I want a game that I can get deep into. And well, orange box contains a lot of stuff! Portal is great, I've played it almost through on my friend's PC, and I'm not so interested about TF. But Half Life 2, episode 1 and episode 2 for the price of ONE game... Dude...

Yeah, anyways, is it what I'm looking for?

Thanks. :)

I would say Orange box is the way to go. Most intense FPS don't have a long story. I'm sure people will mention Mass Effect, but its really not that intense, kind of boring I found. But it is kind of what you are looking for...
-its different, you can get deep into it and its not running and gunning all the time (though once again, i found the action kind of boring)

I said, I play mostly intense FPS games and I'd like to have some change. :) So it's good if it's not intense all the time. Of course I like the firefights too, without them I wouldn't buy it. :) Thanks man!

yea get it it is intense man!karugukinywa

Oh, and anyone, don't recommend ME, I'm not looking for a RPG. :)

I found HL2's plot to be very thin despite making an attempt to be deep. It just never fleshed out.

The HL2 singleplayer campaign is just what you are looking for. Great storyline, gameplay, atmosphere, level design and voice acting. Not sure about TF2 and Portal: I have only played HL2 on the PC.

Yeah, sounds like you could appreciate the Orange Box. Just take Half-Life as it comes to you and get ready to think outside the box every now and then.
