For those who dont know the Orange Box, its just a game bundle released by Valve which included Half Life2: Episode2, Team Fortress2 and Portal. As opposed to the first 2 titles that are FPS game Portal is a little different.

First Person? yes, shooter? no quite, yet it is regarded by most as one of the better games that have been released recently.

The game consists primarily of a series of puzzles that must be solved by teleporting the player's character and other simple objects using the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device ("Portal Gun" for short), a unit that can create an inter-spatial portal between flat planes. The player character is challenged by an AI named "GLaDOS" to complete each puzzle in the "Aperture Science Enrichment Center" using the Portal Gun with the promise of receiving cake when all the puzzles are completed.
