So after YEARS of work, the Orange Box was finally released! With two amazing Single-Player games and an excellent Multi-player game, The Orange Box has been the most successful game of the year!

But I've been thinking, what Single-Player Mod and what Multi-Player Mod (in construction) would you like to see come out with The Orange Box 2!

Remember, third party games are allowed, Portal was originally going to be a Third Party mod but Valve bought the team because they liked what they were doing.

These would be my top choices!
Single-Player Game
Black Mesa! Black Mesa is a complete rendition of Half-Life 1 into the Source Physics, Sound, and texture engine! Some of the models they have on the site are incredibly detailed! Here's an example: (Protip: I scaled it down!)

Multi-Player Game
Natural Selection 2! NS2 is the sequel to the most popular Third Party Mod of Half-Life 1! NS is a fantastic Science-Fiction type game about The Frontiersmen (Humans) fighting the Kharaa (Aliens). There are only a few screenshots but none of them have any characters in them, so I'll show a piece of concept art.

Anyway! Those would be my choices! What would you choose?
 
Ive herd of the Black Mesa mod, im not really up-to-date when it comes to 3rd party modes, although I do play "Source Forts" and "Synergy Beta" now and then, those are fun mods :)
 
I've been dying to play Black Mesa....for a looong time now. I'd love to see valve pick it up and finish the damn thing, then release it alongside HL2 E3 :)
 
BMS is gonna be amazing didnt really played NS before couldnt get my friends to play with me on lan and stuff and i had dial up those times

It took 9 years to develop TF2, so I'd expect TF3 sometime around 2016 :)
 
I'm not really interested in mods, but I think I can safely say I'm looking forward to Episode 3. Thats about all. TF2 will last quite awhile for me. Portal custom maps will be good too.

I doubt they'll make another one. Really TF2 was a fantastic graphical update, but do you really want to pay for the same game you've bought earlier? I admit, TF2 is MUCH better than TFC, but I don't think I'd buy it again.

I'd MUCH rather see some new and exciting stuff on The Orange Box 2.
