MINERVA - read-only archives

They already have been, in the orange box. That was my big beef with it, TF2 I could see on a console, but the HL series is too good, to be degraded on a console. :P

I hate to play Devils Advocate, but frankly I would have liked to get the Orange Box on 360. At the moment I have a substandard computer, and naturally I can't get all the snazzy effects and such that Episode Two's engine can offer. On the 360 you get the sweet graphics on a console that costs a whole leg less than a new gaming computer rig.

Just so you know, I ended up getting the PC version anyway for the promise of a computer later, plus the modding suite upgrades. Plus, ten bucks cheaper and you get more content with Ep2's Hammer files, as well as TF2 and Portal (Yeah, the files are not out yet, but JUST YOU WAIT. Valve already said they are working on getting the object files out there to the modding community)
