...my mind is blown, Valve knows how to tease. And is that the companion cube?!

GLADos, you bitch... who is the monster, WHO IS THE MONSTER here?!?
*planning to play Portal again. After all it's just a 1:45 hour and yet marvellous gaming experience....*

1:45? You man are a fast player, it takes me around 3 hours to see the credits even though I know the solution to puzzles by heart already.

By the way, the PORTAL 2 THEMED surprise is that Portal 2 is coming to the PS3, complete with Steam. It's the last three words that excite me most: PC to PS3 play? Cheaper PlayStation downloads? Competition for downloads on consoles? Steamworks providing easy porting from PS3 to PC? The possibilities!
(Relisticly, cross-platform chat and Steam Achievements along with Trophies.)

Coincidentally, this scared the hell out of me. I foresee a future in which all future Valve games (and other publishers who use Steam) are developed specifically with the PS3 controller in mind, and that the future PC versions will all be shitty console ports, complete with auto targeting, "player glue" cover systems, stupid "one-button-performs-all-functions" controls, etc. Goodbye FPS...

I took my time, yo. For like 8 hours. I couldn't kill the companion cube.
@Wishbone:
Don't forget that Sony is loving to rip their customers off. A PS3 game for 80 bucks? Now imagine for every Steam game or even other media like comics or movies?
Suuuuuurrrreeee....

Well, the first time took me more than 2 days to complete the puzzles, taking all the time I wanted. Then the replay has been exactly the time I've said.

"It's been a long time... How have you been? I think we can put our differences behind us. For science. You monster."
Less than three.

I'm thinking it's more likely to be the other way around, with Sony not able to charge for Portal 2 DLC.

the new portal vids look way too complex for my brain. And way too shiny for my PC. :-(

Videos two and three show some of the extra features.

Portal was fun but realease ep3 already goddamnit.

In my opinion, with the end of Ep2, the borealis, Aperture Science tie-in they didn't exactly know where they were heading with this. It's clear if Ep3 were ever to come out Aperture Science would play a great role in it... but that whole lore isn't fleshed out yet.
I think it's only logical for Valve to expand on that part of the Half-life universe before doing any hasty moves with the Half-Life franchise. Hey, we may even get some more information in Portal 2 about the Half-Life games and events. (since it's supposedly taking place one century after Portal)
Knowing what they're going to do with Aperture will only result in a better next Half-Life installment, be it Ep3 or anything they're going to call it.

Ooooh. More open environments. ^_^
You know this reminds me. I got Portal with the Orange Box, a year or so ago. I should probably finish that final level. Thanks.
