    With difficult challenges, fun co-op, hilarious dialogue, and an amazing story, you don't want to miss Portal 2.

    Portal 2 is an amazing game. Stupendous. The game play was awesome(of course). There are so many new challenges like the gels and the light bridges. They all add up to make an amazing experience that you don't wan... Read Full Review

    Nearly a perfect puzzle game. Only loses a point for being too short.

    Great game, nearly perfect in every way. If it had been longer it would be a 10/10. 1. Play Portal before playing this. It's equally great and you will miss a lot of pleasure of this game without it. 2. The puzzl... Read Full Review

    Pretty fun, but alas...

    I agree with the other user reviews so why only an 8.5? First of all I have been a gamer for longer than I will admit. I've played all styles on all platforms over the decades and I will say Portal 2 is fun, entertaining... Read Full Review

    One of the best games ever made, but avoid the XBOX 360 version.

    I have been anticipating this video game since I saw the first teaser trailer; Valve's marketing employees did their homework...And since I am a diehard fan of the Half-Life series (Portal is part of Half-Life) this was ... Read Full Review

    The Good vs Bad when it comes down to Portal 2

    Portal 2 has been a game that I've wanted to play since Gabe Newell's rather shocking announcement for its release at E3 2010. I have never owned the first Portal, but upon renting and playing it I was amazed by its orig... Read Full Review

    An excellent sequel to one of the best games ever made.

    I don't know how everyone else felt about Portal 2 before it came out, but to be honest, I was quite worried about how it would end up. Portal was a great game - it's difficult to follow up with something so highly rated... Read Full Review

    Great game is all there is to blame...

    I haven't played the portal 1 game so this review is not coming from an avid portal head. I'm simply giving this about how i thought the mechanics and the art of the game were. Im a fan of Sci fi FPS so i figured i would... Read Full Review

    Excellent sequel to a great game.

    Sequels for games seem to have a better chance at actually improving on the original than movies do. However, this is not always the case, in my opinion. From slight disappointments such as Bioshock 2, to the WTF were th... Read Full Review

    Portal 2 ups its own bar

    My god, The big bad Portal is back. What started as an experiment in the orange box is now a bonifide gaming franchise. Portal 2 is everything a sequel should be. Same characters, a few new ones and the same gameplay tha... Read Full Review
