Thanks to the download capacity, this was the main reason why Portal was not placed on Xbox Live Arcade. Furthermore, I had no idea it was planned for XBLA.
 
Probably because it would lower Orange Box sales, too. I know my friend only bought it for Portal, which he only bought because he saw some gameplay on YouTube, which he only saw because I downloaded Still Alive on Rock Band for him.
 
That would be up to Valve Fhq, not Microsoft. It probably would be as much as it is on Steam. I really believe that the download cap on XBLA is holding it back and really restricting developers so much while trying to make a XBLA game.

I just picked up Orange Box mostly for Portal. ^_^ But Half-Life 2 isn't that bad...a little more restrictive than I'm used to, but I'm not that far into it yet, either.

Give it time, that restiction will loosen up when you get further into the game.
