Is this coming out on the PS3?

Yes, and the last I heard, if you purchase the PS3 version, you get the PC version for free as well, as Portal 2 is the game that is bringing Steam to the PS3, so it will be considered a Steam Play game. So to me it is a no brainer to get it on the PS3 if one owns a PS3 and also owns a PC. I was just going to get the PC version, but now will get the PS3 version as why not have the option to play it on 2 different machines.

It's not up for pre-order on Steam - yet. I'll be ordering it from there as soon as possible.

Haha, love it!

Larry is right on the PS3 front. If you own a PS3, there's really no reason not to get it for that.

Portal 2 is finished, says Gabe

Puzzle sequel "put to bed", going through final approval process.

Valve's Managing Director Gabe Newell has announced that Portal 2 is "finished", confirming that the oft-delayed first-person puzzler will finally go on sale this April.

"We just finished Portal 2," said Newell speaking in a video conference call with a marketing class at Tippecanoe Valley High School.

"It's pretty much put to bed and we're just waiting for final approvals and to get the discs manufactured."

You can breathe a sigh of relief now, Portal fans.

But there's still no word on Half-Life: Episode 3, with Newell confirming that Valve's next game will be Dota 2, a fantasy RTS "which will be out later this year."

Portal 2 goes on sale in the UK on April 22nd on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. Will you be picking it up?

i just preordered it for PC on steam. cost me 42 dollars canadian (steal...) total. I love steam. Yeah i could have gotten it for ps3 and linked the game and get it free for PC/OSX but the PS3 version would have cost me almost 30 dollars more and i'm only gonna play it on my PC or macbook anyways... can't wait!

I was doubting your figure of 'almost $30 dollars more' until I added in tax to the $59.99 cost, and you're right. :s

Still planning on skipping the preorder and grabbing the PS3 copy at the end of the month; Portal 2 is being released right in the middle of exam season. :(

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
