Does anyone know if there are plans to put these games onto the 360? I know HL2 is avaliable...but I really wanna play the episodes/TF but don't have the cash to buy/uprgrade my PC.

The system requirements aren't, like, really over-the-top anymore. Pick up the program Steam and have it check your system to see if you'd be capable of running the episodes. You might be surprised.

Unless you're running a really, really low-end computer, you probably don't need to worry about whether or not you can run HL2. My old laptop (bought it in 2003, and it was middle-of-the-road back then) was able to run HL2, if not at a very high level. Download Steam and see how it works, but you ought to be fine.

Haven't they already released the Orange Box for 360?

Pretty much any PC capable of playing a game will run stuff that's on the Source engine. My PC is getting on a bit in specs - above the minimum but not by that much - and I can run HL2 ep 2 at full everything on a large monitor and maintain a decent framerate. Yep, that gnome is rendered in beautiful definition.

TL;DR Your PC will run the orange box* and it won't even look that ugly.
*exception may be made for museum pieces. ZX81 and similar definitely not applicable. BBC Micro a maybe. By purchasing The Orange Box you agree to a series of simple tests at the Aperture Science Enrichment Testing Centre. Cake will be served.
