PC Gaming? No go.

Perhaps a little late, but last week, thanks to a link in the CAG forums, I finally got myself a copy of what has been described as the best deal in gaming in 2007. A brand new copy of The Orange box for the pc.

The game arrived today and there is no way to be disappointed with the collection of games. The quality of all the games packed inside the orange box is excellent if metacritic is to be believed. More so with the PC version which has the complete version of Team-Fortress 2 and superior graphics than the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions.

There is just one problem: all the games in the orange box keep crashing. After installing the game I'm beginning to realize why so many people choose the console version. With that version you don't have to deal with pesky driver problems, graphics cards, lengthy installations, or just plain weird errors. All you have to do is pop the disk in and you are set. So after an hour trying to figure out what is wrong I have discovered that integrated graphics are not be enough to play the game.

Well it appears the cake will have to wait until the nVidia 8800gt drops in price.
