That's good.  If I get my W2 as early as I did last year, I might be able to have a new rig operating by then.

If anyone was planning to get the boxed version, they certainly won't after seeing that hideous monstrosity.

Jonathan Coulton is doing another song for Portal 2

in case the PC grognards didn't catch it, you will be able to co-mingle with PS3 players.  Mac players can do it too.

Having to borrow money to replace my head gasket means no new rig for me.

LOL the girl holding the diamond at the end is hilarious.  Good ad!

you know, it just occurred to me they're charging 50 bucks for this.  When the first one came out in the Orange Box I got Team Fortress 2, Half Life 2 and Episodes 1 & 2 for 50 bucks.  talk about value subtracted 

[Huw the Poo]

Yeah, in the UK they want £27 for it.  I won't be paying that, even if I have to wait until Christmas.

I think Portal 2 is meant to be a full fledged release.  If you are expecting a short game like Portal, then you are in for a surprise.

 I am expecting a full length game but nothing that will come close to the amount of gameplay in the Orange Box (Valve said P2 single and co-op are about 6 hours each).  Valve seriously spoiled us with that package.

J.K. Simmons has joined the voice cast as the

Spoiler for Hiden:

president of Aperture Science.

[Caine]

as long as it's not just a 6 hour once and done, i will be fine.  challenge levels and extra content would go a long way. 

this marks the first game where i will be getting the ps3 over the 360 version, just for that pc code included.

Valve is doing it's own Portal 2 commercials instead of hiring out:  http://www.mcvuk.com/news/43536/Valve-Ad-agencies-almost-worthless

i need this game in my body.

[Sarkus]

Portal was a brilliant game, and definately worth getting in the Orange Box or even seperate for $20, but I'm still not seeing where they can possibly make this worth $50, at least to me.  I don't want 30 hours of Portal 1 or some variation thereof.  I don't care about the multi-player.  And that PAX clip makes me think they are too focused on humor, since that's really all it shows.  

But I'm still bitter they are doing this and ignoring HL2, so I'm probably biased.
