I really really dig the front, I'm a sucker for giant almost textless logos with a killer texture. Nice cool colors by the way.
The back is good, the layout works very nicely, nothing feels forced or slapped on. Although, minor nitpick, the 2 characters could use some color to help blend in.
The only items I dislike here is the screenshot borders and how Alex and Gordon are cut off behind the screenshots. For such an excellent box, the screenie borders are very bland. They are beveled textures matching the rest of the theme. I would try something more original, perhaps shapes that offer a nod to the HL series.
As for Alex and Gordon, this is a major issue for me. The screenshots do not extend below where Alex and Gordon's feet and calves would be, so why are they missing?
#31, #33, I agree the feet underneath would look weird, but the scale you have the Alex and Gordon looks odd that they are just cut off by the screenshots, as there is no box or whatever below that area. Perhaps scaling down the characters a slight bit? Just a thought. Otherwise, this is a a great looking box.
Not much to say, but I hope you like it! I started with it a few weeks back and finished it a couple of hours ago.

Thanks. Wouldn't more color make them stand out more?

I like the clean and simple feels to this. Suits Half-Life well, however, I wish, you did some more editing on the logo up front to match HL2 logo.

Missed this one, looks very clean and fresh.

Really cool stuff. The icy theme looks great, and makes sense considering where Episode 3 will likely take place.

#17, Yea the icy theme does look very nice and is very appropriate.
I espeacially like the icy logo you did on the front.

This is pretty awesome, the one gripe I have is, dare I say it, too much lambda?
[ Reply ]
#20, No problem.
#21, Thanks.
#22, Perhaps, but Valve uses it on their designes so I guess that it's okay.

I really like the dark theme of this box. Seems perfect for Half-Life :) fav+

This needs some more attention, this is very professional looking.
[ Reply ]
Thanks. The box is slightly updated now.
[ Reply ]
What was the update, just a few fixes?
[ Reply ]
#27, Yeah, nothing major.

#30, Cause it would look stupid with some feet under the screenshots.
Congrats swe, this is fantastic, I wonder why I didn't fav'd it before.
[ Reply ]
Congrats on getting this in the Hall.

Thanks everyone :D
#30, As Spiner said, it would look kinda weird with some feet. You're probably right about the borders, I'll try to come up with something new.
