The title said it all. I don't know if it's old news but I just saw it on my steam page.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
I never managed to bring myself to play it a second time. I even attempted to play Portal just a few days before exams. My mind was almost blown (in a bad way). Didn't really like it.Good for you. I never liked Portal :)

I don't even want to see the Portal forums, I bet some will start a "the cake is a lie" war :/ but maybe it already happened. I don't get the admiration behind the cake from Portal, it's like people are trying to make themselves believe that the game actually has an extremely comical and deep story. Also the companion cube love...
I get it, the cake is a lie, yeah sounds cool the first time, second, maybe even third but not when you use it like a language.
I can't say I liked it, it was enjoyable but not the spectacular game that people say it is, and it's definitely not the game with the best story from that year o_0 it got a few awards for best story of the year...I wonder what did those people play in that year, tetris?
Anyway good that they announced "something" but if they don't announce anything else along with it then...that isn't really much.
Just because the internet took it way too far doesn't mean it wasn't good to begin with. I loved Portal and the humor in it. Looking forward to the second one
This. Portal was one of my favorite games of the last decade, and just because people created some annoying memes, doesn't take away from the actual game. Eagerly looking forward to this.Just because the internet took it way too far doesn't mean it wasn't good to begin with. I loved Portal and the humor in it. Looking forward to the second one

I agree, not enough Portal love going on in this thread.
Geez, some PC gamers are a bit too "sour".Dante2710Maybe it's a coincidence but the game is absolutely the same. It's pretty boring and mediocre but still not annoyingly mediocre. Now Portal Prelude, that's a great experience, superb "game". It's sad to see a mod being way better than the base game, especially because Portal was made by a company that does only great games.
Compared to Portal Prelude, Portal was just trash, but hey, that's me, everyone else likes different things.

Hmm, I never played prelude, but thats only because when it was first released just about everyone was panning it. I might try it later when I get some free time, but this is the first time I've heard someone talking positively about it.Maybe it's a coincidence but the game is absolutely the same.

Never played prelude, but saying that Portal is trash is pushing it. Give credit where credit is due, specially since portal is the foundation of the mod.[QUOTE="DanielDust"]Maybe it's a coincidence but the game is absolutely the same.

Although I could only managed to bring myself to play it once, it was at least a somewhat amazing experience that you won't find anywhere else. I mean come on, what other game would let you run around a lab with a gun shooting out magic portals and a voice stalking you and wanting to kill you?I really enjoyed Portal. I hadn't played it for a lonnng time after getting the Orange Box. One afternoon, I decided to try it out for a few minutes for sh*** and giggles and ended up playing it through in one sitting. Nothing really all to special about it, but the gameplay was unique and fresh.
Not really sure how they can do a sequel, but I will look forward to it regardless.
I realize the whole point of portal is strategy, but if they maybe added some weapons or stealth and gave it a real-world feel I think this sequal has some potential.TreytasticYeah, if there's one thing Valve needs to do more of it's first person shooters.
I am very excited. Portal was a great game and i love the way it is connected to the HL universe. I will definitely get this one. The gameplay is awesome, the humor is great and the atmosphere was interesting. And i don't want Portal to become just a regular shooter like lots of people on this topic want it to be. I want it to continue being a puzzle game.
Portal was an awesome puzzle game. For all the haters wanting it to be some kind of sci-fi horror shooter, you have a giant list of games to choose from. So leave portal be. Let it stay a fun and simple puzzle game with humor.
