Nope, you get a free copy of Portal 1!

Or, if you go retail, you get some skins for the coop bots or something.

They've abandoned a lot of what made them awesome in TF2. It appears that's now spreading to other areas :(

I had a look at the skins, not keen on them really. They look like some sort of weird yellow roll-cages. I prefer the robots without them.

Come to think of it... wasn't L4D and L4D2 similarly priced when they came out?
Also... I don't see where this TF2 comparison came from...

Portal 2 looks good. I will probably buy it. *

Depends how long the actual Playtime for Portal 2 is. If it is as long as the Playtime in Portal 1..then the Game is utterly overpriced.

This game would be awesome with co-op, one person with the blue and one with the orange. If they announced something like that on Valentines day it would suited and would have been awesome. OK, well, Portal 3.

Portal 2 is a lot longer than the original Portal and features two campaigns - a single player one and a multiplayer one.

Si, it is the same price as the L4Ds, which I was also slightly disappointed with price wise. Mostly, though, I was expecting Portal 2 to be slightly cheaper, about £20, considering its reported length and fairly low replayability (no variation).

Aaron, they announced 2 player coop ages ago. Each player has their own portal gun with 2 portals each and must work together to solve more complicated puzzles (completely separate campaign).

Price is fair. Sorry it can't be 60+ hours like games in the 90's

This must be bait right lol? Games being released for £25 that are, say, as short as portal 1 are overpriced.

Or are you in the crowd that believe the force unleashed 2 was fairly priced as well.................

Price isn't too bad, i just expected cheaper. I will definitely waiting for an Amazon/Play pre release price war, though.

Huh, what does the Alien Swarm soundtrack have to do with Portal?

I do believe the music is the same as in the portal valentine video.

The TV spot got released a while ago, here that is:


Watch this video on Youtube.

And here's the first in a series of 4 short videos on Portal 2. First up, Panels, narrated by Cave Johnson. ;)

I'd just like to say I LOVE those panels, it looks awesome. I've decided I will pre-order this game after all.

Just a heads up everyone - there's word flying around that the 360 version has been leaked, which means you may want to be careful for spoilers.
