I am going to get one of the three, but I need something with longevity on the multiplayer side. I bought 2142 for Christmas last year, and I havent played it more than a few hours, so I would rather not waste 50 bucks like that again.

Crysis is great and all, but I haven't played it multi player - lags too much... And I don't have a bad computer! Its single player was great.

I'd recommend CoD4 for long time playing.

Orange Box, 3 great games in one small package.

COD4, orange box gets boring pretty quick, but cod4 is just extreme, like a combo of CS:S and BF2

CoD4 will be fun for a while, but the games of Orange Box will last much, much longer.
Also consider all the amazing mods for Half-Life 2. Nothing is as good at "lasting multiplayer value" than mods.

Orange Box hands down. HL2 alone has a longer singleplayer. As for multiplayer TF2 is a great game and there are tons of mods for HL2 that are multiplayer in case TF2 begins to grate.

For those of you who were curious ( I am sure you all were.) I went with Orange Box because it was on sale. Thanks for all the input.

None, however instead of Orange Box I'd say get TF2 by itself, save you the embarrassment of playing Half-Life.

If your rig is good enough (8800GTX or greater, with decent multi-core CPU and 2-4GB RAM), Crysis. If not, both the others are great - just not as good as Crysis.
