Pre-ordered it a long time ago in order to play TF2 beta. Package is well worth it, and highly recommended.

As for buying individually, yes you can, but the cost adds up to more than the cost of the Orange Box.

If it does talk, don't take its advice.

Don't bother with commentary, its all boring crap.

And I finished the bonus challenges pretty easy, only hard ones are the time trials and least amount of steps.

Steam has that kind of money??

Wait, Steam cant be a start up company. Who owns it?

edit: Looks like Valve owns Steam. So who owns Valve?

Steam isn't a company, it's a product. More specifically, a distribution system for games, run by Valve, initially designed for their own titles but since expanded to include literally hundreds of games, of which every sale gives them a cut.

Valve has a rediculous amount of money from that alone, without considering the success of Half-Life, Counter-Strike, etc.

Also, Valve has previous titles on other platforms as well; Half-Life was released on PS2, Counter-Strike was released on XBox, Half-Life 2 was released on XBox.

It's on 360. PS3 version I think will be released next month.

I doubt anybody will be playing TF2 on the 360 anyways, since everyone is gay for Halo 3. So it's kind of a waste...Although the three Half-life games and Portal offer a much better singleplayer experience then Halo 3.
