See, these are the weeks that picking the top release is easy. The Orange Box looks to be one of the best games of the year, but, more importantly, it looks to be one of the best gaming values. And we're all about the value here on Joystiq. We'd clip coupons, if our hands weren't already horribly misshapen and arthritis-ridden from decades of clipping coupons. Yeah ... we're pretty hardcore. PS3 is getting an interesting release too, with Folklore. Check out all the releases after the break.
I know it's a travesty, but I'm anticipating absolutely hours of Portal before I even try Ep2.
It normally takes me ages to solve puzzles in games, and I end up consulting an FAQ, but Portal looks like it'll be so much damn fun trying that I won't go near one.
I'm certainly looking forward to Portal more than I am Ep2 - it's been so long since I've played a really good puzzle game (I was one of those sad bastards who actually enjoyed hacking in Bioshock - though I can't imagine I'd be arsed if I ever bother to play through it a second time).

I've still not finished Episode 1 yet due to crashing issues occasionally. But I'm looking forward to episode 2 as well, I may have to hold off on playing it until I've finished ep 1
