I haven't played something so average in a long time.
Stupid bullshit hyperbole. It was a puzzle game with interesting, unique puzzles and some humour thrown in. Not sure why it's a negative that a portion of a huge bundle is short.

No wonder. I'll onlyplay P2 if Valve gives it away like they did with P1 last May.

Rightfully so! The campaign is excellent so far, but I will say one negative thing:

It's too damn easy for too damn long! The difficulty takes forever to ramp up, and even when it does, it's a bit of a breeze.

Little bit, yeah.. I would have liked to see the difficulty increased a little. It's much longer though, which is nice.. and as expected the setting and dialog are top shelf. And I haven't even touched co-op yet, which is apparently about as long and has (light) dialog as well. I'm very much looking forward to that. I'm waiting for a friend w/ the PS3 copy to pick up a headset before we play it.

yeah, co-op is supposed to be awesome. sadly i doubt any of my mates would enjoy sitting down and playing a puzzle game. my usual go-to gamer friend is a bit "if it aint got action it aint worth playing" which kinda sucks. maybe i can talk him into it tho.

The PS3/PC connectivity works pretty seamlessly too, if anyone was interested.

Portal 2 is my GOTY so far. I'm not even sure if that will change. Wish there was someone to play co-op with. Thanks to PSN being more open than MTYF's mom hackers are having their way with it like LEBATO's mom. Thus I can't play co-op with my buddy on the PSTriple.

I can't wait to play this game. The reviews have me so fucking hyped it's funny. As soon as finals are over my ass is sitting down and going through this game start to finish. Anyone know how long it took most to finish the game?

Once again Valve hands us a masterpiece

Same as Grift, pretty much 6 hours straight. Would have been more like 5 and a half if I didn't play to 3AM this morning. =D

The co-op stuff was surprisingly easy. Same with campaign. AMAZING game though. The end of the single player is so awesome.

I should've gotten the 360 version of Porta 2l. Everyone on PSN might as well be dead and everyone else on Steam is a pussy.

Just finished Portal 2, what a ride! Puzzles were not that hard but the story was fantastic if you ask me and OMG that ending!

Gonna check out the co-op stuff tomorrow!

Some of the achievement design is pretty nifty too. The monitor smashing achievement is a bit like the camera's in the original game, but there are "puzzle" ways of solving each monitor you need to break. It's not complicated or anything, but it's more fun and interesting than a lot of achievement design. I love this game to pieces.

Yep, couldn't agree more. Easily one of the best gaming experiences this year.
