Quote EA plans to sell standalone copies of Episiode 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2. by Ryan Geddes US, February 1, 2008 - PC gamers will soon be able to buy retail versions of the individual games that make up Valve's Orange Box, Electronic Arts confirmed in its third-quarter fiscal conference call this week. Half-Life 2 Episode 2, Portal and Team Fortress 2 are already available a la carte via Valve's Steam download service. But now the individual titles will also be packaged for retail sales, EA said. Half-Life 2 and Half-Life 2: Episode 1 are already available as standalone retail packages. The newly unbundled games are scheduled to hit retail before the end of EA's fourth fiscal quarter, which ends March 31. http://uk.pc.ign.com/articles/849/849...153p1.html Edited by Tinger on 03-02-2008 12:56 |

then add the packaging prices to that.. you may as well buy the orange box online than a single one boxed. Though I know some people like having a box and a manual, I like the fact that I don't have to switch CDs or take them with me, I just have to have an internet connection. |

i bought the actual box of orange box, because it was a hell of a lot cheaper than getting it from steam. Free packaging... Since I got the whole thing for £18, sliced up the games must be damn cheap |
