A Gaming Diary
The Orange Box (360)
Best value game disc ever? Well, that probably depends on how good Team Fortress is. I’ve not tried it yet. The only thing I’ve played so far is Portal, which I started and finished last night. It’s short, but one of the sweetest gaming treats I’ve ever had. It’s full of great puzzles, it introduces you so gently that you never get overwhelmed and it’s got one of the best scripts ever. As my wife said, “I didn’t expect a stupid boy game to be so funny.”
It may be short, but it’s probably worth the price of the disc on its own. We will all remember the first time we played Portal and those of us who have just played through it have had one of the defining gaming experiences of our lives.
It’s not too early to call it a classic.
Oh! And the possibilities…
