     A small portion of what comes in the Orange Box, Portal is an first person shooter, that is entirely a puzzle solving game.  Do not be mistaken that it is a game in which the character you play as cannot be killed in the game.  There are plenty of puzzles that could lead to the character's demise.  The trick is to use the portal gun to get passed the obstacles set out infront of you.  

This game comes with so much that I am devoting an entire post to this one title unlike the previous post like this, where i included three titles in one post.  With out further stalling here is the game I want to get my hands on.

                                                                                  


That's right, I want the Half-Life Orange Box.

                                                                         

     Electrionic Arts had this catch phrase that they used for the Medal of Honor franchise: "You don't play, you enlist."  To back the claim, Medal of Honor put in the role of a soldier fighting during major battles of World War 2.  In Medal of Honor: Frontline, you start the game in battle of Nomandy on D-Day.   In Rising Sun, you start on one of the many battle ships attacked in Pearl Harbour.  European Assault sends you through Europe, Africa, and into Russia.  Each game has aspects that make them good games, however, what makes them all great is the historic accuracy.

                                                                              

     What happens when you take two first person shooter genres and meld them together? You get Resistance: Fall of Man.  Set around the time of World War II, though you are not attempting to defeat Nazis.  Instead, you are an American trooper sent into england to help make a final stand against creatures created in Russia, and no we are not talking about zombies, these monsters sport guns and geat that they have created, and they don't go down easy. 



 

In Black, you play as a Black Ops Specialist who has been apparently been taken into custody and interrogated, and you fight through the missions that your character is giving details about. The most interesting part of the whole thing is that you can get so immeresed in the game without knowing what the story actually is.


Chunks of wall and dust often and realistically can hinder you view on the bad guy.

The missions are long, that means you are not going to start and finish in an hour. And the A.I. of the bots on your side, can actually hit the broadside of a barn. You get a fairly wide selection of weapons to choose from, and with bad guys crawling from every hole you can see, you'll have no problem using every single one.


Use a grenade Launcher to blow the crap out of the enemy.

The games graphics are awesome, the sound is great, An you'll be left speechless by the whole package.


Ah the RPG, king of the biggest explosions.
