This box that's orange and full of MAGIC

Who's got it? I need someone to play team fortress 2 with. My favorite in the box is Portal, though. I was angry it was so short, but I'm sure some modders'll get me some new levels pretty quick.
Yeah. I haven't ever played half life 2 ever, so this is an exciting experience for me. And a hell of a deal, to boot.

OPINIONS?

I've got it. TF2 used to run okay for me, then I changed my settings and it ran great, then something changed and it runs great for five minutes then crashes. I need to rectify this because it's a great game.

I loved the crap out of Portal, and it's actually responsible for me going back and beating HL2 (well, in the process of doing so, anyway...). It's funny, I owned HL2 but never really played it because I wasn't interested, but now that I found out that Portal's got a link to it (plus the atmosphere didn't hurt), I'm good to go.

I'm all about some TFC2, anytime, anywhere. We can't all be medics, though.

Seriously though, I'm keen on the Medic, Scout, Spy, and Pyro.

You have just listed three of my worst classes. I am Engineer, Soldier, and Demoman, sometimes moonlighting as Heavy. Medic is one of my top classes by use, but I can't claim to be a fantastic Medic.

I'm a pretty good Medic for one reason: I actually have a mic, and so issuing "complex tactical commands" such as "don't go out there they'll kill you faster than I can heal" and "invincibility 3 seconds left...2...1" is a bit easier and helps coordinate actions.

I have a mic too (which I got just for TF2

), but sometimes it doesn't work so awesome with my connection. For some reason, Half Life completely thrashes my computer, which I bought new last year. Maybe I need a new video card.

So people actually use the mic for teamwork in this game?

I was thinking of getting Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn this November, but I might actually get the Orange Box O' Magic instead.

Portal was wonderful, and TF2 is hilarious and fun. I suck at it, but I still enjoy it when I play. My Steam Community name is KFTrendy.

Mine's Mogri. I added you.

Mine is Eternalhachi, but I can't seem to get yours to work, Rubs (Moogle's works, though).

I can't find you, either. Come to think of it, I couldn't find Moogs for a while. I think the Steam Community has some bugs what need ironing out.

I will be making one after 10:00 tonight. My apartment is run by nazies who only let the internet game after 10. Yes, we have complained. Yes, I am moving out. But anyway...yeah. We should go dominate or something.

Also Half Life 2 is about 200x better once you get the gravity gun. Also running it on really high resolution (and it has widescreen options!) makes me so happy.

But I need more portal. And more CAKE.

Gordon's life just got even more cool.

Well great, now that I've seen and fully realized that, if Episode Three is anything short of portals and gunfire, it just won't live up to my expectations.
