Portal

Any of you guys ever heard of Portal? It's this mini-game that comes with HalfLife Episode 2. It features a modified Gravity Gun that will enable you to create portals. It looks sweet and nifty. Here, have a look:

Seen it a LOOONG time ago. But yes it does look pretty sweet. They might be using it in episode 3 or in later Half Life games.

Yah, well, I just found out :P

I can't wait for next early next year. Cos the 360 version comes out then, and it features HL2, HLEP1, HLEP2, Team Fortress 2, and Portal. Woooosh!

Which is why I'll be buying HL2 for the 360, even though I've already played the main HL2 game.

Portal looks fucking amazing. End of story. It's been a long time since someone has come up with a challenging, innovative puzzle game.

It does look pretty interesting. If I decide to ever get a 360 I will probably get it.

On a side note, if I see one more person type the letters QFT consecutively I am going to have an interweb meltdown. Enough is enough. Please allow your obnoxious little internet trends to die so that I can sleep.

I doubt that.

It seems kind of silly to release expansions for something that hasn't even been on the 360 yet. Not to mention the fact that Ep1 hasn't even graced any consoles...

That doesn't explain much, though. It just looks like a stitching together of previously existing descriptions.

I'm definately getting this. But first I HAVE to get a better PC. A lot of new-ish games won't run on my computer, not even on the lowest settings.

And by new-ish I mean anything made within the last 2 years .

I don't know when mine was made, and it plays games fine...All I know is that it's case was made in the 90's. Everything else is hodge podge
