Default Re: Need help with bet dispute

to me the spirit of the bet was whether or not it's multiple games, not exactly how many games it is, so OP loses.

That makes sense. There are a million stars in the universe. There are also other stars.

But Orange Box is not three separate games. It is five sepearate games. You could say "There are three games within Orange Box" and that would be true, but you cannot say "It is three games because it is, in fact, five games."

Anyway whole thing is just an argument (and a pretty silly one) over technicalities. I vote push because both of their statements were wrong. Theres different ways to look at it. If the case was on a shelf with 6 other xbox games, then I would say that I had 7 xbox games. On the other, when actually playing it I can switch between the games.

You might be right that the 3 games statement was technically wrong. I shouldn't really get involved in these discussions in a language I don't master fully.

But that was just a digression anyway. The main point is that the spirit of the bet = roommate wins.
