Characters - Advanced facial animation system delivers the most sophisticated in-game characters ever seen. With 40 distinct facial muscles, human characters convey the full array of human emotion, and respond to the player with fluidity and intelligence Physics - From pebbles to water to 2-ton trucks respond as expected, as they obey the laws of mass, friction, gravity, and buoyancy Graphics - Source's shader-based renderer, like the one used at Pixar to create movies such as Toy Story and Monster's, Inc., creates the most beautiful and realistic environments ever seen in a video game. AI - Neither friends nor enemies charge blindly into the fray. They can assess threats, navigate tricky terrain, and fashion weapons from whatever is at hand

Customer Rating:      Summary: Game uses Steam which causes problems Comment: This game uses Steam - a digital distribution, digital rights management, multiplayer and communications platform developed by Valve Corporation.
Some of the problems with Steam:
1. Privacy - steam collects information from users, without notifying the user at the time of collection or offering an opt-out. This leads many people to consider Steam to be a form of spyware.
2. Steam is a worldwide delivery system yet it allows publishers to geographically restrict where a game is available, and at what price. Many people have found that in regions outside the US games are either not available, or are sold at grossly inflated prices compared to the US.
3. To play a game that uses Steam you must connect over the Internet to the Steam website and create a Steam account. So if you are without Internet access you will be denied access to run your game. Also Steam's Internet servers are not guaranteed to be running at all times, so you will also be denied access to your game if their servers are down.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great game and a thick plot that only gets better in Episode 2 Comment: Great game and the graphics are top-notch. Team Fortress 2 is a great multiplayer game and good to have along as HL2 EP2 seemed to be short lived.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Doesn't get any better Comment: The HL series is simply one of the best games you can play as a FPS. The Orange Box gives a great package for those who haven't played the ones prior to Episode 2. It's a complete set of HL2, Episode 1, Episode 2, Portal and Team Fortress.
The game looks beautiful and can run on a normal PC with a decent, mainstream graphics card. In this day of DX 10 and dual core processors being the "minimum requirement": it's great having a game series like this look fantastic without requiring a new PC.
This is a must have for anyone who likes a FPS.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Luved it Comment: This game pack is great. HL was a tad short but portal makes up for it. Portal it self is worth the price of the orange box.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Fun Comment: Good fun, portal was very interesting and mind boggling, which gave a good challenge and made you think outside the box on some instances. TF2 is fun, but as online play goes, it's as fun as the people that plays it, too many immature kids playing it for my taste on the open server. And thinks they're cool, by uttering profanities every other word.
Half Life 2 is ok, didn't care much for the storyline, it just didn't grab me.
