i hope these npcs wont take up a huge part of the game tho. i liked the deserted feel of Portal.

hooray! for science. you monster.

i really like the music in the trailer, i hope they release an OST.

It appears as though the start of 2011 is set to be pretty fucking epic for games.

True say B

Looking forward to this so much...

There's a video with new footage here:

I guess most of those puzzles are pretty early in the game. They seem to introduce the player to new gameplay elements, but these already look pretty tough. The player seemed to know what he was supposed to do.

must...resist..watching....

That looks pretty fucking good. Really enjoyed the first one, must remember to upgrade PC...

Sorry to say so dude, but it's fucking epic.
Take what they did in the first Portal, multiply it with a gazillion and then you get near the level of epicness of Portal 2.

meh, looks alright

coop trailer: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/exclu ... l-2/703300

i havent watched it

6 more months of this shit... :/

After watching the E3 stuff, then the shit posted above then thinking about it for a while, The best part of Portal was knowing nothing going into it.

They've not only shown the new stuff, but what to expect/do for situations rather then figuring it out.

if one or two tricks shown, gives up all there is to it, then why bother playing the game?

I hope that you're wrong, and that there's more to it than just a few seconds of footage.

i highly doubt it would give up all of the game, but trying to figure out those moves and the dynamics that the Goo plays is what made the last game entertaining for me.

they hinted they are adding more things in with the propulsion and speed goo, but wouldn't it be more of the same?

They should have kept the game shit under the lid and continued with the Secret pictures, sounds, telnet numbers, etc.

You know, the hard core nerd shit.

Though, all of that being said, i cant WAIT to play it... I've beat the first one 8 times to date and its the ONLY game i can say that about.

Hopefully this one will be no different.

Interview with one of the writers for Portal 2. Some potential (storyline) spoilers though:

Ah, no, because there wasn't any goo in the first Portal.

True, but I think it's hard to get up with creative stuff like that.

Well, that kind of proves that watching these videos doesn't spoil much. You learn about the basic usage of two of the goo types (I bet there's more types) and some other stuff, but that doesn't mean you suddenly know how to solve all the puzzles in the game. Even if you closely remember the stuff you see in the videos, then you'll be able to complete maybe one or two puzzles (assuming that these are in fact puzzles that end up in the final game and not just demo levels for that purpose only).

DELAYED UNTIL APRIL 22nd

this is valve, we probably won't see it till 2012

... Maybe valve should release Portal using episodic releases like Half-Life 2 since this will mean faster development time and less waiting between games, a unicorn told me this is true.
