Portal 2 Announced *may contain spoilers*
No surprises there then, but portal 2 has been announced
"Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Left 4 Dead, Counter-Strike and Half-Life) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced Portal 2 for shipment this coming holiday season. Portal 2 is the sequel to 2007's Portal, which won 70 industry achievement awards" If you view that announcement on steam you'll notice it has a hidden message. drattmann0nee Ratman lair is a term used for the behind the scenes areas in Portal. |

Each icon is another piece of released data, including articles about its development, video interviews with valve, and a podcast on the subject.... but there is more to come. Worth a read, especially the history of Aperture Science. If you've not played the Half Life series or Portal then obviously you shouldn't watch this, but instead go buy said games. Of course mentioning half life there in itself is a spoiler, so screw it. |

On PS3, the game is integrated directly with Steam, which allows you to chat with your steam mates while playing it, play co-op cross platform and, if you link your steam account inside the game, it unlocks the ability to play on pc where you can also play from the same save-game (it saves to the "cloud"). |
I started playing it a bit last night, about 20 mins or so (my attention span for games seems to be dwindling) and I really enjoyed it. I loved the first Portal and this was a good start for the sequal.
I was love/hate about the Ricky Gervais wannabe robot but most of the jokes had me smiling. Loved when GladOS rebooted and was being overly nice to you in a meanacing way. That's as far as I've gotten, looking forward to having some nice time in Easter to play it some more! |
"We've both said a lot of things you're going to regret." ?
If so, that was in the trailer. Looks like it could be good fun, but I'll wait for a special. :D |

Has been most excellent so far, I suspect I'm about 75% through single player. Also played some co-op on the night it was released, about 80% of it (in around 4ish hours), was pretty awesome.
It doesn't take long to develop a bit of a language to describe to the other person what you think is required, and the extra pair of eyes helps a lot with some of the puzzles. Some had us in stitches for how absurdly long we took to come up with what suddenly was the obvious answer right in front of us. Not sure co-op would be that replayable mixing someone who hadn't done it with someone who had. Helps if you both haven't seen them solved before, I think. |

Yay, got my PS3 copy of Portal 2... sigh, PSN is down.
|
If I had known PS3 had a free PC copy I would've gotten that :(
|
Portal 2 is easily the best game I've ever played.
Portal 1 coming in close(ish) second place. |
I'm up to the part where GladOS turned into a potato, man I felt stink :(
I just absolutely love this game. |
Confuckingcur
|
Finished both SP and Coop today, was great. Fantastic game.
