portal 2 just started downloading a 700-800 meg update , i think it might be the dlc.
The DLC is 1.37 GB on the 360. Maybe it's smaller on steam because of different Packaging? Or some surprise from value to 360 users? We know they are Microsoft were working on something.

Ugh, Valve brought back that stupid as hell storage device selection menu on the 360. Why the heck do I need to always select a storage device when my hard drive is the only thing connected? Gah. (N)

Look at what I found in a hidden room on chamber five of the new co-op course...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall this being in the singleplayer or original co-op levels. Possible hint at a mechanical Aperature arm in Episode Three?

Interesting. Must've strolled right by it on my playthrough.

You have to portal into it. It's a door that's slightly cracked open. I haven't seen anyone post about it on the Steam forums... wonder if no one else has found it or if it's just old news. It seems familiar -- can't recall if it was in Portal 2 before.

I got to the final chamber (nine) before my partner rage quit for no reason. He just said "f--- it" and left. I'd been solving all the other puzzles, but he made it seem like I was such a horrible partner, hah. Oh well, getting that far with a random isn't bad.

The asset is new, but I think you're over-analysing it. The area in question is littered with bits of Atlas and P-Body prototypes, including some of the old "red eye" style bots.

There is also this incase you lot missed it:

Yeah, I saw all that stuff -- I liked exploring that level. I'm probably overanalyzing it, yeah, just seemed neat (and was interested in how you had to portal in to see it).

Portal 2 to get in-game level creator:

In Portal 2, players were made to complete a series of devious and deadly tests constructed by the sadistic GLaDOS. Players will soon be able to put themselves in the AI antagonist metaphorical shoes, as developer Valve today announced that it is working on an in-game editor that will allow users to create and share their own single-player and cooperative mode test chambers. The update is set for release early next year.

Co-Op Comes to The Perpetual Testing Initiative

Are you sitting down? If not, you should sit down. Okay, are you sitting down now? Because you should probably actually be lying down for this: As of right this moment, we are giving all current owners of Portal 2 a 75% off Portal 2 coupon. If you're standing back up, dusting yourself off and wondering why you'd want another copy of a game you already own, lie back down real quick because here's the lie-down part: We just added co-op to the Perpetual Testing Initiative.

That's right: Puzzle creators can now design and publish co-op maps, which puzzle players can now greedily consume. Well, as long as they have a co-op partner. Which the 75% off coupon should help them (i.e.: you) find. We've also added a "Quick Play" feature that creates never-ending, auto-generated playlists of the top-rated maps in a variety of categories. It has literally never been easier to figuratively jump in and literally play some Portal.
