Anyone playing The Orange Box?

So, I got The Orange Box for 360 yesterday. Anyone planning on getting this / want to play Team Fortress 2 online?
BTW, even though Portal is short, it kicks much ass.

Orange Box looks awesome, but I don't have a 360 or a good enough PC to run it, so I'll have to wait for the PS3 one if I want to try it.

It's $60 on the 360. If you want it on the PC, get it at Circuit City, as they have it for $37.99 this week (normally $50).

It has Half Life 2, Half Life 2 Episode 1, Half Life 2 Episode 2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2.
Portal is probably the shortest game in the list, clocking in at around 6 or 7 hours. Team Fortress 2 is online multiplayer only, so YMMV.
Great games though. Finally glad that I can play them (I'm not a big PC gamer).

They are an episodic continuation of Half Life 2's storyline.

Under $40, oh damn!
I really didn't want to spend money on a game right now... I'm going to think long and hard about this though I doubt I'll get it. I have best friends getting married (one's male, another female and known them for nearly 10 years now) within a month and I still need to get them a present. Plus I need to fund a bachelor's party. Man what a bad time for Orange to come out. :-/

Because of all it offers, I know I'll get it eventually. But I'm in no hurry now.
Imo, for all the hype surrounding Team Fortress 2, it's disappointing that it's only online, only 6 maps, and no free-for-all. Of all the games that are in the Orange Box, it's sadly the one I'm least likely to play since a) I don't know enough people that will be getting it and b) would be playing it online.
Unless I get it over the holidays, I'm targeting $29.99 or less before I get this one. Too many other games ahead of it on my list now: Mass Effect, GH3, CoD4, Rock Band, Assassin's Creed, and VF5 for starters.

I hear you on the 6 maps. It doesn't bother me that there is no free for all, but I'm thinking 6 maps might get old quickly.
I'm hoping that they'll put some up on the Marketplace...

I would have gotten it for my PC, but they f'n canceled the black box. I already own HL2 and HL2:Episode 1. I only really want Portal and Episode 2 (Team Fortress would be neat, but I wouldn't play it that much). On steam, Episode 2 is $30, Portal is $20, and TF is like $20. They basically screw over the fans that have all the episodes already.
But since it is $38 at CC, I might actually pick it up now. Too bad there isn't a CC in Las Cruces. Plus, what will I do with the extra HL2 and HL2:E1 that comes in it.

Try getting a price match garuntee at one of the stores in your area.
I've done it at BestBuy a few times when i found items at CCity cheaper.

But I doubt they will price match if there isn't that store nearby. Maybe I'll try.

For those of you who don't have a 360 or a good PC, but still want to play Portal, well I have got the solution!
