Well with steam you can download each game individually so it doesn't take too long.

Orange Box was very good, I got it back when it came out on preorder. I don't like TF2 as much as I used to though, I find it way too easy now, especially when playing as a sniper, but meh.

Personally I would recommend CoD4 if you don't have it yet.
