As much as i love Half-life 2 episodes and reccommend them without hesitation, for a true hardcore FPS you just can't overlook stalker, soc and clearsky can be bought through steam and are really good.

Yes, this is true.

Anyways,

Get the Orange Box! And you won't ever want to sell it, so don't even consider that. Seriously. Get the retail if you like to collect game boxes, and get the Steam version if you want convenience (assuming you have a credit card to buy it with).

I say just get it on Steam, that's what I did.

Seriously, it's the absolute best value for a game ever. Wait, best value for FIVE games ever. (Well, three if you've already played HL2 and Episode One, but you can give the extras to a friend if you already have them)
