Also valve brings out one game per decade, like half life 2 ep 3 which will be launched sometime next 10 years or so, jokes aside portal was an amazing game.

even if you take it slow it will be completed in a couple of days. if you wanna play it for a week just don't play it for more than half hour everyday.

Apr 21, 2011 at 8:17 PM
^^ I am talking about 15 min a day dude. :))
I don't want to complete this game until I get Darkspore and Witcher 2 to play. I have to be busy with this only. Although I do have some games but if I like some game then I take things real slow until its a RPG which is kinda adrenaline rush for me.

Played the co-op campaign with Sam and the game's brilliant. Awesome set of puzzles and the co-op element is just so much fun. We kept doing high-fives after every chapter and it really irritated GlaDOS. But oh GlaDOS, how sarcastic art thou! :grin:
vamsi_krishna
Apr 22, 2011 at 10:46 PM
This game is one master piece. Not because of the cleaver puzzles, voice acting and the fun factor. But, because it gets the player right on. The events, Dialogues, AI are scripted in a way, that it will exactly hit the player. There are tones of examples.. but telling them here will only ruin the experience. Experience it in first hand :)

this is one masterpiece alright. Voice acting is something else. Its phenomenal. Atmosphere is amazing. I just love it. Valve has delivered yet again, sir. Wheatley's character is so amazing, can't say anything or it will tread spoiler territory. Y'all just gotta play this one, if you haven't already that is.

To begin with this game, I attempted the original Portal first. Played it for 3 and a half hours, and it's over. It was fun, and challenging. :) Catching Momentum while traveling through Portals is what I like the most.

Will try this in a while/.

I should mention i thought GlaDOS sucked in this game , she talked too much , with sarcasm and expressions and all , in PORTAL she was the automated voice that was better.

Does that mean ps3 gamers can sell this key off to pc users? brb, going to call a friend who owns a ps3, lets see if I can convince him to buy the game.

haha!! that is not possible. it works like this Valve Reveals How Steam Will Work for PS3, 'Portal 2' | News & Opinion | PCMag.com

in short: your PSN id would be tied to your steam account so you can play on your PS3 or PC or Mac :grin:

Well guys, I just finished Portal 2. The game felt lonely, even though the comical thoughts of the AI fill some of that loneliness but still the game lacks the presence of a real-time game play. The game unravels some very good puzzles. A nice background story but I would suggest this game does not belong to a FPS genre as "WWW. GameSpot.com" has quoted. So In that accordance i would like to give the game a 6.5/10

Portal does not actually belongs to First Person Shooter Genre. Becoz U dun have to shoot anyone in Portal. :p

It defines its own genre and is one of a kind. :)

Actually you can term it as Puzzle Genre.

Oh, how we laughed and laughed,

Under the circumstances I’ve been shockingly nice..

That’s what I’m counting on,
I used to want you dead but,
Now I only want you gone. :music: :music:

No. Install it and update it. Only then you can use Steam's offline mode later.

I honestly consider your question a "Google it" query. :) Because this thing has been explained a lot of times.

Just completed chamber 4. It is a walk in the park upto now :wink:

GLaDOS test chambers are easy but boring. wait till you defeat/replace GLaDOS, then the real P2 will start.

Once you start feeling it repetitive, the game immediately throws something different and even better at you. Which is why, the game felt fresh even during the final boss fight.

Finally. Replaced that Glados. Heading into what is called Condemed Testing centre. Stuck in a place. It says lift is out of order. Tried every place. But nowhere to go :/

Just finished Portal 2, it took about 10 hrs total for me, had been playing for 3 days.. Really amazing game..
I had not played the original Portal so had some initial confusion when the game started .. got used to it later..

Paid Rs. 559 for it and it was worth every single paisa :p

Waiting for next release :) 10/10 ...

EDIT: I did get stuck in three places... but later somehow managed to solve it :)

Have to play the Co-op .. need to find some one who has a copy :p

EDIT2: One of my friend said Portal 1 is free to play .. is it true?.. Checked Steam $10 :p

Play Portal 1. Its epic. The story of Portal 2 is made 100% more fun for people who played the first game. Things like Cake is a lie!!!11!! were from first game :p


I got it for free. It was free for one day only.

Steam price is a bit high. But the orange box price, - Flipkart.com: The Orange Box game: Game: PC

is a lot more meaningful. TF2 will be converted to premium and you get the full Half Life pack too :razz: :wink:

Hi, guys have you played Portal."A shooting game that doesn't have shooting really to speak off." You may have loved or hated this game (+1 I <3ed this game, actually Portal 2). I know this is a very late launch of Portal's thread, still.....
You may share your experiences like what you love:razz: and where you got struck:-x or even how many times you took help of walkthrough:mrgreen: ?

I have played Portal 2. It's is on top 10 :cool: of my must play games or whatever you say.... a TOP 10 or SIZZLIN' 10 or GOT TO PLAY 10. Truly fantastic !!!:-D. Speaking of the funny lines or the GREAT PUZZLES is out of the point, everyone has praised it. And FACTOR "FUNNY" was actually required otherwise it would have given Portal a horror game tag Xpect puzzles. Puzzles are AWESOME !!!

I just took help of 1 walkthrough, what about you ?:lol:

if you want to better understand P2's story then buy P1. P2 uses almost all of P1 maps so you won't miss anything.

So will it be repetitive in P2? Like L4D2 used all the maps of L4D1?
:p .
no repetitons.. but for continuation of story, you may want to play it and also to learn thinking with portals :D
it is only 5-6 hours in length, so better play p1. you'll appreciate p2 more then.

a few maps from P1 got included in P2. P2 got lot better graphics as well as equally difficult mechanism not to forget the twisted story. i'll say P1 is practice.
