Hi

I have The Orange Box for PC. I love it! (completed the singleplayer games of it a long time ago) I'm curious to see what it would be like on the 360. Does anyone have experience with both - and how would you rate it among gameplay, graphics and fun?

Edit:
I don't care much on the TF2 side - just Half-Life 2: Episode Two and Portal

Thanks

The crosshairs on TF2 are quite small and hard to turn around at times. Portal was fun. Didn't really play Half-Life.

I still have it though, add Kptk92 if you have Live

Yo hit me up on Xbox- SupahVillian

As for the Orange Box I've played it on PS3 and it didnt wow me as much as the PC version, only 16 players isn't really that hectic

Updated my post - forgot to mention about Team Fortress 2. Were the Portal controls easy enough to work with after you got used to them? What were the more difficult, fast paced levels like compared to the PC version?

Played HL2 and TF2 on xbox, and they were horrible.

I don't really see why you would want it on xbox, especially if you already have it for PC

Why would you spend money on games that you already have. And you have them on the platform that they play best on!

TF2 wasn't bad compared to PC (not quite as good though)

Portal was pretty bad to PC

Half Life 2 was completely shitty compared to PC. Especially the vehicle controls.

If you've already got it for PC, dont bother with console version. The only excuse to buy it is for people who have really crappy PCs.

Consoles FPSes are always inferior to their PC counterparts. It's just the way it goes. You need a Mouse and Keyboard to aim quickly and accurately.

TF2 was horrible on the 360. I tried it for like 5 minutes on Dustbowl and it was total shit. I killed a bunch of people using Demoman though.

I wouldn't buy it for just those two games if you already have it on PC, Kyle.

I played the orange box on my friends 360.
It was easier to aim than on the pc.

I guess i grew up using anolog sticks on fps's so i'm used to it, but i found it harder on pc since i always used anolog sticks all the time.
But a mouse does represent a gun quite well.
