It's time for another edition of What Are You Playing, little darlings. This week, we have yet another fairly obvious choice for may fanboys out there. We're sure a lot of you will still be playing Halo 3 (we'll be spending some quality time with it to be sure), but there's this other game that will likely be stealing your attention as well. Of course, we're talking about The Orange Box. Like a box of chocolates you actually want to eat, The Orange Box simply offers some of the best gaming goodness this side of a rigged slot machine. We've been informed by management that we're all required to play Portal now, so we don't really have much choice. All of you, on the other hand, you do have a choice. So, what's it going to be? What will you be playing this weekend?Leaderboards:
Xbox 360 Fanboy Leaderboard
Xbox 360 Fanboy Leaderboard Mk. II

Lol Stephen, I've been trying to beat it too so I can listen to the fancast and watch the last Believe video...but it's hard too cause I always get called upon from MP for my l33t skills. Hopefully this weekend! And of course, I'm a huge Halo fanboy so I'll be playin' dat.

Portal is sweet. I've only got to like level 15 but the commentary cracks my shit up!
"This level is impossible. We apologize for the inconvenience. If we were you, we would just quit now"
So I'll probably play that a bit and make some headway into HL2.
I'll also probably be getting more H3 achievements for the meta game points and the terminals.
So many good gaming sessions lie ahead. It's a great time to be an (xbox) gamer!

I'd like to finally finish up those last achievements in Puzzle Fighter. And I'm finishing Halo 2 if it friggin' kills me. And it will, over and over and over again.

Wow. I just finished Portal and it was an astonishingly well made game. Innovative, well written, halirous, and an interesting addtion to the Half Life universe. I was so hyped for the Orange Box and I expected to be spending most of my time in TF2 and Half Life 2, but Portal could quite possibly be my favorite of the bunch. The song during the credits was seriously the funniest thing I've ever heard in a videogame.

@16
it seems short until you go back and do the portal challenges. try to use two, 1, or no portals on every challenge and youll be there for days. hook up to an iv first.
