It's just as funny as Portal but for all the wrong reasons.

Twin Sector may be one of the worst games I've ever played. If not for enabling some cheats that let me float around and pass through walls I would've never finished this game because there'd be a gaping hole in my monitor. Honestly I can't imagine anyone but a masochist finishing Twin Sector without resorting to cheats. The puzzles, as simple and obvious as they are, can take ages to solve because the cheap nature of the game and it's atrocious physics. A puzzle that should take 2 minutes to solve may take you 2 hours, I wish I was exaggerating.

So what kept me going anyway? Like Portal, it was the hilarious dialogue, but unlike Portal the humor is completely unintentional. See, there are bad dubs and then there are hilariously bad dubs. If you were to play Twin Sector with its original German dialogue, the game wouldn't have a single redeeming quality, but turn on the English dub and you'll be LOLing through to the very end as you cheat past the puzzles and enjoy the next exchange between Ashley and OSCAR, who I will argue to the death is just as funny as Portal's GLaDOS - but once again, for all the wrong reasons.

And yes, make no mistake about it, this is Portal done wrong. Very, very wrong. I think I'm being generous by giving this a game a 2.0, and that's only because Ashley is so damn pretty to look at.
