official Portal 2

[killmaster84]

Doubt this is going to affect anyone but the Walmart in Whitecourt, Alberta is selling Portal 2 already for the Xbox 360.

I have to say this is isnt really funny anymore, Valve are just taking the ****.

Refund.

Really?

REALLY NOW?!

They're advertising INDIE games and advertising them, and if we do what they want we get the game early, but if we don't we get it ON THE DAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO RELEASE ANYWAY..

Crying about it is pathetic, and saying you want a refund because Valve is supporting Indie developers is pathetic and sad.

Pre-loaded and ready to rock and roll.

Thanks to an awesome friend on Reddit, I will be in 19 minutes too. :happy:

[Minifig]

Wow... Portal was 3 gig. Portal 2 is 10. :blink:

And I'm officially ready to rock and roll! :happy:

Considering it was just a "plus" to the orange box and not a standlone game, normal that this time around they have made alot more content.

Also, there are 2 games in one: Single player and co-op which is different.

[someguy201]

I finally gave into temptation and pre ordered it. Only 6% downloaded, but should be done before release.

Some guy over at Reddit got a free copy of Portal 2. He made an awesome case mod, and sent to the GabeN at Steam, and he got a key back! How awesome is it? (Y)

...and a Steam update was just pushed out: http://www.steampowered.com/platform/update_history/index.php?skin=0&id=0

The case . Most awesome!

[Pajter]

Wow that looks hot!

[someguy201]

While unlikely, if any of this ARG stuff does turn out to be Half Life E3 related, I will be very happy.

[xendrome]

Can't wait for this :)

None of it is about Half-Life 3. It's entirely related to Portal 2.

The game has also leaked, and there doesn't appear to be any hints at the next installment of the Half-Life franchise as was speculated.

[xendrome]

Half-life 3 will be like the new Duke Forever pretty soon.

Look at the Portal 2 achievements - "Ship overboard - find the missing experiment"

Also speculation that thewatcher is Gman. I said it's unlikely, but some of it can easily be interpreted as related to HL2e3. Portal 2 is set in the HL universe, there will be some references to it, even if they weren't even making it.

That's exactly what I'm saying. The game has leaked, and nothing has indicated any information about Half-Life 3, despite the assumptions. Portal 2 takes place hundreds of years after the events in the Half-Life franchise.

Except the situations are completely different. Valve is a company thats just growing and making more money, Duke Nukem has had a string of problems that there is no reason Valve would have.

I'm personally still convinced they will tie up the series, they occasionally drop hints in interviews, and other things, and considering how secretive they are about everything who knows. If they want to make it they will, if they don't, they won't - but I doubt it's in development hell.

[Ayepecks]

Yeah, I'm sure it'll be fine. People said the same thing about Half-Life 2. In Valve I trust. :laugh:

What if the experiments on the Borealis were not just portals in space but in time as well which is why the ship dissappeared it could have been transported into the Portals timeline hence the achievement?

[someguy201]

Valve did patch Portal a few days ago, they have a habit of adding clues in from patches - remember the changed ending of Portal?

The leak may be a pre-patch version?
