Portal 2 Review

Of course it's a ten out of ten :)
Can't wait to play it. One day.

8.40 AM? Are you crazy?!

Good review, I was quite looking forward to reading it. Glad to see it got a ten, but I'd be suprised if it didn't. My copy's been dispatched and so, I'll be up nice and early tommorow to play it.

Also, was this the 360 version you played? And if not does the SteamWorks integration make any significant sifference?

damn it another great valve game that i must buy i bet portal thinker is jizzing himself over this score

Not sure how much shipping will cost? http://www.teefury.com/ maybe portal_thinker will get one of these? :D

Nice read and especially being spoiler free! I give Jamin major kudos there as I haven't finished Portal 1 yet.

I'm going to play devil's advocate here but my view will heavily focus on Portal 1. I definitely see where the appeal is within Portal but with the harder puzzles coming right at the end (I presuming I am at the end), because I have told people where I am and they say I am not from the end. Anyhoo... I'm on test chamber 17 or 18 either one of them, and starting to make me think more than compared to 15, which was a little brain thinker but wasn't difficult.

Portal just isn't ticking the boxes for me personally what people have been saying about it. Maybe my view will change when I finish Portal and try the master challenges, is it called that?

Looks like I may have to get Portal 2 at a later date when it drops down in price. So many good titles out this year I haven't even thought of Portal 2 at all to be quite frank.

Once again, good read Jamin and thanks for making it spoiler free! Made it a even better read in my position as I haven't finished Portal 1. Bravo! 10+ TU's from me! :D

Well its mine!

I haven't played it yet - I'm almost crying with anticipation! I'm also not reading any more reviews, for one I only trust Jamin not to spoil it. If I did read others I may get a little over excited!

Yep, 95 on metacritic for the 360 and higher on PS3... GOTY? :p

Looks like other critics agree too - almost top marks across the board from the sites I've had a quick look at.

Mine hasn't even been posted yet.

Maybe digital distribution really is the better option.

Played Jamin's copy in one sitting last night. Incredible game - hard to see ANYTHING topping it this year, and that includes Mass Effect 3. Hoping my own copy arrives by Thursday so I can spend the bank holiday playing it a second time with director's commentary.

Bought.

Jamin, you're half god and half envy of my life. Brilliant review, I only wish I could have played it already!

Soo.. Who wants co-op, my PS3, Mac and PC freinds?

I did half-expect this to get a full 10/10, but I'm so glad to see it has. Fingers crossed mine turns up Thursday morning - I don't think I've been this excited to play a game :D

Steam! You unwieldy behemoth, work damn you WORK! I want MOAR PORTAL 2!!!!

South African internet - the leading cause of violence.

I can't wait!! :)
