ive never played portal so i guess i am missing the point, but those videos are quite dull, wheres the enemies or something? just empty rooms to navigate round
Welcome to a game where it isn't about headshotting 3 billion enemies until the credits roll
Seriously it's a masterpiece, every gamer should play it.

Yep. Masterpiece is hardly ever the right word for things, but it is for Portal. Everything about it is perfect. Difficulty level, 'plot' (which surprised me!), sense of humour, level design, everything.

It looks way too complex to be done with a pad now I think... look at the footage in the second half of the trailer! I really can't see it working too well I'm afraid, some certain parts of the first game was harder than they should be simply because of the controller.

cant find this
Here you go.
You can even download it your Xbox from there, if you login with the email address associated with your Live account, which to my mind is pretty much magic.

will definetly pick it up if i aquire a higher patience threshold though

I'll echo the rest of the guys and state that the first one is utter, utter genius. It also ramped up the difficulty nicely - the first few levels are designed in such a way that you are "handheld" without even noticing it, and after an hour you're thinking with portals.....
P1 wasn't really that hard at all, just timings needed to be tight at times. Only a couple of maps towards the end need me to step back for a few moments to think

I feel a bit crushed that all the hurt and betrayal we PC gamers suffered when Valve's 'Big Surprise' turned out to be P2 coming to consoles (though it was really Steam coming to PSN) eventually bought us this - skepticism and wariness from the console market. Obviously, if you played Portal on PC, you know how... yeah.... how it is. To hear such a lukewarm response to P2 coming to consoles, I would have expected righteous elitist outrage, not least from me, but I'm left feeling.... hollow. Like if Promethius stole fire from the gods, and got reactions like 'hmm, it's a bit bright', 'isn't that kind of dangerous?', 'it's pretty, but I wouldn't let my kids near it'. Much as I'd love to see heavier focus on PC exclusive, or at least optimised, titles, Portal's something that should really be shared across the platforms. I just don't know what you guys want.
Ah, right. CoD9: Modern Franchise.
