Portal 2

Just came across this amusing little Portal 2 trailer  and thought I would share.



I personally, just like alot of others out there, thought Portal was a fantastic game. The uniquie and innovative gameplay made it stand out from all the rest, which is why I wonder can Valve do it again? In my experience sequels are usually never as good as the origional. Whether it be the developers losing sight of what made the game great, or nostalgia creating the illusion of epic past games, it just nearly always seems to be the case.

Valve have added alot more gameplay mechanics and thrown in new environments to keep things fresh this time around. I'm realy looking forward to playing Portal 2 and hope valve can pull it off once again and give us a treat. What do you guys and gals think? Will it be as good? Better? Or is it destined to live in the shadow of the origional Portal?

  3. I am super excited for Portal 2, although I haven't pre-ordered yet. I feel like it might be a little bit over-done. Not like they can't not do it over the top because it's a sequel and Portal 1 was awesome with its simplicity. We'll just have to hope the balance will work out for Portal 2 !

  21. I got Portal for free via Steam with the debut of the OS X release of Steam. I played through it in under 10 hours. I have to say, I can't imagine spending $50 on the sequel, even with CO-OP, if the game is still so much of the same. Valve is great and all, but Portal 2 has to really innovate to be worth my purchase.

  24. YYESSSSSS!!! MAN I loved portal. Most satisfying ending in a game EVER, I mean....hell... I would play it again, but I know the feeling will be empty and hollow, like the candybar wrapper floating past my window. Damn I can't wait for the second installment!
