Portal Portal and more Portal

User Rating: 9.5 | The Orange Box PC
By drbranko | Review Date:
Not much left to say about HL2EP2 but that the HL2 series is one of the best PC computer games ever...period.

What really amazed me is the Portal. There is so much fun in trying to solve puzzles without actually having to shoot something or somebody, and yes you can take it at a pace that suites you. Well except at the end. After Tetris, Sokoban and similar it was hard to believe that there would be any new ideas that will earn the classic status in the puzzle genre...and the Portal is the one. One thing that I would like to see is the level editor so we can create and share our ideas. Oh and yes, the end of the game reminded me of Raid Over Moscow!!! Does anyone knows what I'm talking about? Boy I'm old... :D

Conclusion: The Orange Box is the perfect gift for the upcomming holiday season if nothing from you to yourself ;-D
