I am seriously considering starting to use Steam just for this game. It looks really fun, and I won't be ruined by the nostalgia too much because i only watched Portal 1, never played.
Survival is winning, everything else is bullshit.

Steam is fine now. A few years ago it was a major pain in the rear for a multitude of reasons, but they really got their act together, and now I actually prefer buying over Steam to getting hard copies.


Oh, and please people, try your best to disregard nostalgia.......it's so annoying, especially as many of the humourous quirks of, for example, GLADOS, are no longer original/fresh, and so you somehow expect them to completely raise the bar and blow your mind again. Calm down, and look at it more objectively, especially if you're not even done with the game.

Yeah, I enjoyed it a lot more than the first game, but there's no advanced chambers? Kinda sucky....

That's because you blew them up. You monster.

Anyway, so far it's been really fun. I'm still looking for someone competent to run through co-op with (for great streaming!)

I'm debating between this and Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat is the type of the game you buy just because of it's predecessor but I haven't heard very good reviews about it. Do you guys think Portal 2 is worth the money and has good replay value? I play mainly SC and i'm getting the GOW3 beta.. I need another game to play and have been debating whether to buy Portal 2 or some game like HON. I don't want to get off-topic, just want to know if you guys think it was worth the $50-60? And there good replay value.

Finished it this morning. Loads of fun and the singleplayer experience was alot deeper, also in a literal sense x) Still got a few secrets to hunt it seems, looking over the singleplayer achivements.

I've yet to touch upon co-op, wich I'll assume will be even better. Just need some of my friends to wake up first ._.

It's at least several times longer than Portal 1, with a more fleshed out story and more varied environments. I guess there is only so much gameplay you can fit into the storyline before stuff becomes tedious and repetitive.

"We both said things that you'll regret" Such good writing. I felt like a few of the "random" jokes were a bit over-the-head (although that smooth jazz was so nice) but there's definitely better lines in this one than it's predecessor; even if you can't wear nostalgia glasses while playing it.

I wouldn't be surprised if Stephen Merchant helped with the writing.

the best thing so far for me has been the cooperative gameplay. after the early release i joined in a game with some guy for like 2-3hrs and knocked out 2 whole chambers +6 rooms of the 3rd and its rather challenging. Plus when you figure stuff out together without almost saying a word its really cool. one room we had 4 triggers on 4 timers and had to use portals to time everything and got it all with a simple "go!" and no explaining to one another before hand.

7,6 GB? First that i read that! Well i think you have to be good to beat the game in 30min (like Portal 1)
I will not download it, but get it shipped to me; so give me a few days

If you buy the PS3 version you get it on steam for free too.

Which means, since I told you this great information you should give me your steam voucher, PS3 players
