Portal

[Eric]

Looks like Valve updated Portal to include a radio on every level to reveal secrets of either Portal 2, or some other Valve game. Cool stuff!

"...these new radios each contain a hidden audio file that's transmitted when you carry them to one particular point in each of the game's levels."

Unfortunately I barely have time to play the games I WANT to play, much less replay this (awesome) game just to see cool secrets...

Portal 2

Following mysterious updates to the original game and various teases, Valve Software has now officially announced the existence of Portal 2 through Game Informer.
Few other details on the puzzle-shooter sequel were revealed, though Game Informer notes that it is "a stand-alone, full-price retail release" with "new gameplay mechanics, storyline, and some surprising new twists."

Update: Portal 2 will hit "this coming holiday season," according to maker Valve.

I read the rumor is there will be another Orange Box and this will be part of it.. although it would probably sell pretty well on its own..

I think that Portal 2 would sell even better on its own as opposed to a bundle in the Orange Box. Even though I know Half-Life and TF are great games, I'd rather just by Portal 2 by itself. If its bundled, I might not. Depends on how expensive another Orange box will be.

Anyone get 2 yet?

I heard you can buy it for the PS3 and through Steam it will let you download for the PC as well. It's $10 bucks more for the PS3 of course but I think it's a pretty neat feature they are offering.

Supposedly it's the first console game with Steam capability.

The guys I generally play BFBC2 with got it and most of them have finished it already... It may have a little more replayability given the co-op... but still..

I loved the first one, but I'm going to wait till at least the first steam sale on it. 6 months out it will be $20 or so...

Bad ass.
