it isn't too late....although I just did a quick search for the orange box and prices range from $10. to $99. so depending on your system and area it is a bargain at under $20.
The list won't stop getting longer... I noticed the orange box years ago. It's very cheap now. I thought it also had the portal games in it (strange combi but great games)
not strange at all. it has the 3 biggest selling valve games all in one box. I wish I could recommend half life one but I played it years ago and it looked dated, still fun and a great game but just painful to look at...it was a masterpiece for its time though.
I bought that at a game store the other day and it was too scratched up to play! They didn't have another copy in stock either. Found it in their massive $2 stack lol. I'd say Battlefield 4 or Perfect Dark. The original Perfect Dark. PD: Zero disappointed me. I felt like they took a FPS with the fantastic features and broke it down to a completely traditional FPS. Needless to say, I can't stand Call of Duty games either. (Debbie Downer, I know.) Oh yeah, and this when it comes out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T92_AbJNbWI
I am getting nostalgic just thinking of it This was also one of my very first 3d games and as we all were new to these kind of games and settings in the 90's I was blown away. Man! Monsters, magic, castles and evil warriors... I loved it. But it doesn't hold up because nowadays it is all pixels. It looked so great back then, but not anymore. I had a fantastic time with it as a teen though, wouldn't have missed it back then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwbJuJR66-8
I was about to say why did we like those games so much but when you think that all we had before that was 6 strategically placed squares to represent a dragon....well yeah that shit looked pretty good at the time
Yeps, I feel like we 90's kids grew up with the development of 3d games. And we were used to nothing, I mean look at the first wolfenstein 3d. Then we got stuff like Duke nukem (which was great and legendary and all but now is not much special anymore, and one of the main things causing that is time and development of graphics ). Btw, I do not really see myself as a hardcore gamer (and I don't think I'm perceived as one irl by fanatic gamers) but if I notice after posting in threads like these how much games I have played over the years I am kind of suprised And if we then notice how much great games I did not play... that is also astonishing
I go through long spans without touching my console. I know I only used my ps3 for bluerays for over a year. When I get into it though I will do nothing else with my free time.
Same here. I just have to be in the mood. I guess I spend more time on them in autumn and winter. And when I get a new game (which is usually not that often)
same with me, there has to be a game that gets me back into it. the last of us was the one that did it for my ps3. before that bioshock infinity got me playing more regularly. just saw a price drop for the enemy within, I know the game looked like something I would like, gotta check the reviews but if I can get it for $20 I will consider it.
I have no doubt The last of us will get me hooked as well (because I also checked the reviews , I'm not an impulse buyer where it comes to games)
