TO EVERYBODY:  Thanks, all imput is much appreciated.  To the dude that asked why i just didn't get the 360 version: Cuz I wasn't thinking  To the dude that listed every game: Extra thanks to you for detailed imput. and sounds like I won't be in TOO bad cuz I don't really care for TF2, I mainly got this for HL+ Episodes.  Thanks to everybody that posted for the advice and imput. much love

So i own a 360 and a ps3 and i was in GameCrazy the other day when i noticed that they had a copy of the Orange Box for like $9. i figured i couldn't pass up the deal of like 5 games for that price and it is something i have always been interested in checking out and have yet to pull the trigger on, so i pulled the trigger..  The thing ...

Is there no returning the game or trading for the 360 version, since it was the same price, anyway? Worst case, you could buy the 360 version now, and sell the PS3 version on ebay to probably at least make back what you spent (I'm not really in the mood to look up the going price of the game on Ebay, but you may even be able to get more).

far cry 2... tried it, couldn't get into it. 

1.Uncharted 2 2.Borderlands 3.Resident Evil 5 (did everybody forget this came out this year??) 4.Left 4 Dead 2 5.MW2  and i haven't played Assassins Creed 2 yet, or Batman, which I plan to do both before years end, so this is kind of a so far list.. and i wouldn't be suprised if both of those overtook the 4 and 5 on my current list.

first of all the guy that said borderlands is a mess is a dip and he doesn't know what he's talking about.. that game is ridiculous fun.  2nd of all, i'd get: Batman AA Borderlands (duh) MW2 Killzone 2 is a good ps3 exl. Battlefield Bad Company Trine (psn)  Infamous  but i'd say the absolute first game you need to buy is Uncharted 2   and also, the guy who said return it is also a dip, as for he has ...

psychonauts.. i'd play mass effect more towards the release of 2 so the story is fresh in your head.. and chaos theory is one of those games that can just be played anytime.
