    Yeah, was gonna post this. Would be kinda cool with updated graphics and all for me, but EGM (where it sourced) hasnt got the best track record of rumours, so im gonna wait for an official source.

    Would be quite sweet though!

    Hrrrm, I already have it on Xbox 360. The Orange Box on PS3 is the worst version of it.

    Signs point to fail.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    I'm curious, what makes it worse? I'd really like to know, since I plan on getting a PS3 sometime, and the Orange Box is currently near the top of my must-buy list.

    People were having problems. I think they might have been patched out, though. I'm not sure. I have Portal for PC. :P

    This is good news for me because I really wanted to play Bioshock, but I don't want to get an Xbox. xP

    It has incredibly terrible frame rate issues.

    Why not just get the PC version? After all, you have a PC.

    A laptop, but I'd need to check whether its specs are actually capable of handling Portal. Somehow I doubt it.

    Besides, I detest WASD movement controls. Using three fingers and four buttons to do the work of one analogue thumbstick, only to have them do a worse job... pain in the butt. And the wrist.

    It takes a pretty beefy PC to run, so if you're not a PC enthusiast it might be more convenient just to get it on console.

    Making the game look like nothing but a miserable pile of secrets dung normally makes it run smoothly on our low-end PC, but it didn't work out quite as well on our low-end laptop. I guess the console version is the way to go.

    Yup, that's my plan - if I'm going to get the console anyway, I might as well get my preferred games on it. Rather than wasting extra cash on building a PC that's comparable in specs, but guaranteed to become redundant much faster...

    You could try running a pirated version just to see if it works before buying it. I know a guy. :P

    I could simply borrow it off my flatmate too But first, I'll need to get my new hard drive. That's happening next week. The Orange Box needs at least 20 gigs, but that's the same size as the entirety of my current HDD...
