It's funny. I have enjoyed all of those games now. TF2 isn't for me, but every game in the Box was a certified classic. When it came out though, these games being bundled together under a generic label gave me the impression that it was low-quality, so I skipped it. I was from a rural area with essentially no internet access and there weren't a lot of other PC gamers out there to correct that misconception, so I didn't play these games for way too long.
