Portal 2 (...is out)

Inscrit depuis 7352 Jours

The past week's bizarre pair of updates to Portal seemed to point towards an impending announcement of a sequel, and, well, they did. Game Informer has revealed that its April 2010 cover story is none other than ... Portal 2 -- which Valve has given a release window of "this holiday season." The magazine's site teases the 12-page feature, calling the game "a full-fledged, standalone sequel" with "new gameplay mechanics, storyline, and some surprising new twists."

We'd venture a guess that one of those twists has to do with wherever the portal featured in the cover art leads to -- a misty, jungle setting where some sort of seemingly derelict facility stands, overrun with vines. The flip-side of the cover is (cleverly) a view back through this portal into a familiar Aperture Science setting. Finally, the single cover line mentions "the people who are still alive," a potential hint at a reason for venturing into the new setting in the first place.

The issue should be hitting subscribers' mailboxes soon. Check out the full covers after the break.

I'm not sure how many people followed the ARG last week, but it was epic! Portal is still one of my favorite new games, despite its length and simplicity, it's just so undeniably charming and good that it deserves every bit of praise it's received. I can't wait to see more, but at the same time I don't want to have it spoiled. Hopefully more Valve news featuring Episode 3 is incoming. I can't wait!

I <3 Valve!

Portal was so overrated I can't believe it. It was like a Braid kind of overrating.

Mods, stop changing my SIG! I'm going to end up banning you!

Check out the randomly underlined letters. More clues dropping--the ARG continues! It's probably new login/pw info for the BBS. I wonder if anyone has pulled any new data from GlaDOS 3.11.

Yup! Nothing of consequence yet, but the nerdiest marketing game ever continues!

But wait! There's more!

<Crispy`>: To let you know what happened.
<Crispy`>: The drattman/h0nee login
<Crispy`>: it gave us a .APF file
<Crispy`>: which is a fake filetype
<Crispy`>: it was made by Doug Rattman
<Crispy`>: of Aperture Science
<Crispy`>: when we logging into the backup/backup account
<Crispy`>: it gave us a BASIC program
<Crispy`>: which would run the .APF file
<Crispy`>: and from there I assume that's how Genesys got that image
<CFSworks>: .APF + .AMF actually
<CFSworks>: They come in pairs.

I think Portal was a good experience, though i kind of have to say that i also think it's maybe a wee bit overhyped :P

But i'm certainly looking forward to more of it.

I haven't played something so average in a long time. It was sort of worth playing through once, but after the (3 hrs?), it's pretty much done. Zero replay value. I could give a huge list of reasons, but I sense the fans will not agree. I think it'll be interesting how far they can take this gimmick. To have a game built around just that is a bit too much.

Oops sorry, can't edit my post. Would some moderator kindly remove the link or add spolier tags, thanks. :)

Portal was certainly one of the best gaming experiences so far this gen. Very clever and a wonderful and charming presentation. I'm really looking forward to seeing what new ideas they come up with for the 2nd one. Should be a great game I'm sure.
