I picked up Valve's Orange Box a few weeks back, and i've never been this addicted to a game in forever. I played Team Fortress Classic a lot back in high school and loved it, but then I stopped because there were only ever like 4 human players online at any given time.
It's such a breath of fresh air to see an FPS game that goes for humor and cartoony characters instead of every other new shooter out today that are all some super-serious and gritty army man crap that goes for super-realism... or some generic space man in a world of green and purple glowing shapes...
And every class is really fun to play as, as opposed to the old Team Fortress, where I only liked using like 3 of the classes. The balance is much better now, and the expressions and phrases that the characters shout mid-game add a lot of personality.
I love this game! My SteamID is Zafo999 if anyone wants to fight.
