- The Orange Box comes with Team Fortress 2 Premium, Half-Life 2, both Half-Life 2 episodes, and Portal. In most cases it is cheaper to simply buy Portal standalone if you don't want/already have the other games. You are able to give the extra games (should you own any already) to other users as gifts.

Troubleshooting
Game crashes after seeing or going through a portal :
Make sure you are running Portal in DirectX 9 or higher. Trying to run the game in DirectX 8.1 will cause the game to crash when a portal appears.
I can't see my crosshair :
In the console, type cl_drawcrosshair 1 to show your crosshair or cl_drawcrosshair 0 to hide it.
Console Commands
Games running on the source engine can utilize Source engine console commands for various tasks.
