Dammit Valve, stop toying with us! :pinch: (yeah I'm getting that "incomplete installation" error too)

EDIT: I'm getting error 10, which is overloaded servers....wounder if this is genuine or are Valve just screwing around again?

I played through the first little bit, excited to continue after work tonight. Alas, I must head to bed.

[Klownicle]

Physical copy for 34.99 at walmart :). Picked up Mortal Kombat also.

Too bad I already beat the xbox version of portal 2. I will do co-op on the pc.

You got it to run? lucky sob! been trying for 30mins but keep getting that damn error :(

EDIT: I restarted the Steam client and it works now :D I suggest the same to anyone else having trouble getting it to run too.

Finished the first chapter, and I must say GLaDOS is creeping me right out.

Also, massive props to the art designers. I can't stop looking at things!

[Yorak]

Yay did 19 and 20. I really love where the story picked up at. Awesome so far. (Y)

[ozgeek]

Yay. Played for 20 minutes. Loving it so far :)

Here's what the main menus looks like :) Lovely change from the "dialog box" of the HL2-era games.

Why would you use a controller for this game? :/

[DigitalE]

OK, here's what I'm trying to figure out. The PS3 version of Portal 2 comes with a code for the PC version. Would I be able to buy Portal 2 for PS3, enter that code directly into Steam, and get the PC version without even needing a PS3? Or do I have to do something in the PS3 version of the game to get the free PC copy? Anyone know for sure exactly how it works?

I think the code just works on PC with nothing required on PS3 side. A couple of my mates have done a deal to buy the PS3 version and give away the PC codes to other mates.

Why not?

Controllers has been around for PC for a long time. not just recently. Remember MS Sidewinder controllers, they came out before 2000 and were very popular. It's a matter of preference. You might like mouse and keyboard but there are some that has computer set up in a way that makes a controler more comfortable to use like a media centre PC with a large screen and no where comfortable to use mouse or keyboard in that position.

Ever try playing portal on a laptop with the computer on your lap? These are possibilites that suits different people.

I'm on Puzzle #5, and I'm loving it, but I've got to head to bed.

For anyone who wants it:

[Teebor]

Grats to all you guys who got a free copy of valve games for getting all the potatos :D

My job now is to avoid reading or hearing anything about the storyline until I buy the game

[Xerxes]

Been playing it for a few hours, love it!

in the retro 60's style test chambers with the repulsion gel in the abandoned section and just found the dry dock for the Borealis, so we now know it was one of their early experiments that they later abandoned, the plot thickens! (only thing that puzzles me is why would a dry dock for a ship be deep underground? :/ )

You have to link your ps3 to your steam account, or create a steam account

It wasn't abandoned iirc, something else happened ;)

Surprised the 360 got a rough port, guess Valve just really didn't care about it after going to bed with Sony lol
