PC version:

:laugh:

I can see why people would get upset about so much paid DLC on day 1. $1.99 for your robot to do a facepalm, thumbs up or other guesters. I can understand if it was some ingame credit you get for doing things to get people to replay the game. I guess this is just a small way to keep giving us free support for other games ( updates, new maps, etc...). Nothing is free.

That screenshot is serious? If so, WOW, that is pretty bad.

And I was just reading on Kotaku about the DLC. Also pretty bad I must say. I realize all of it is cosmetic and does not affect gameplay, but I just thought Valve of all people would stray away from such gimmicks.

I am sure I am still going to love the game, I loved the first Portal and even if it is an exact replica of it with just new levels and ways of doing things, well then I am sold, but it is a tad disappointing to see some of the thing that have been revealed on release day, mainly the console-centric focus and console-centric approach to the DLC. Oh well.

Looks like a lot of that is to do with people complaining about the DLC extras for the game as well as a complete misunderstanding of the Potato sack games or what the potatos was all about

That why I was confused I knew they didn't had any DLC and where the f*** these idiots got this $85 DLC out of the air. I'm still debating should I get it for console or pc (the price tend to get lower for pc after a while)

Playing through it now - it makes me unbearably motion sick, the first one did too to an extent but no where near this levels :x

I had this problem with HL2 when it first came out. I tried the game again last fall and had the same problem, only made it about an hour into the game and couldn't take it.

I see someone is running it on a MacBook, I might give it a try on my MBP. Not going the 360 route.

I can't believe there is already pay for DLC.... Valve is normally not the one to charge for such a little thing like that.... I wonder who is making them do this?

it's not a conspiracy, it's just hats which have no bearing on gameplay, and tf2 already has hats you pay for, this isn't anything new. I don't get how people think this is a big deal.

Helps pay for the 'free' updates and maps we get for this game and others but I do feel some of it is a bit redicilous but it has no affect on gameplay.

I just got the game in the mail and im having secound thoughts based on real reviews (not trolling ones). I hope their is a map creator tool soon. Community maps for SP and MP would just make things a lot better for PC and console side. They can throw in a map browsing interface like little big planet so people wont have to download and extract to a folder like on the PC side.

edit: OK i did a search and their will be user created maps for alll versions (should really do that before making a post). Thats good I feel better because people will create twitch reflexes maps we all love from portal 1. Im going to get killed on the PS3 side until I upgrade my PC :p. Game on.

    • AV2, successor to popular YouTube, Netflix, Amazon codec AV1, has a hard battle ahead

      By Nas · Posted

      Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.
