Portal Impressions -~SPOILERS~-

This game is total crap, it takes like an hour to complete and takes no thought at all, I heard it was suppose to be a puzzle game. It's like prey but with really crap music I mean WTF with that **** at the end. Total waste of time and it tries to hard to be funny it's painful.

Wow you totally failed to get this game..shame. :o. Once you get your head round it you'll realise it's the best damn game for a long time. I throughly enjoyed it one of the best games I have ever played.

i got it fine it was just junk
 
im loving this at the moment, but im stuck on lvl 17 or 18, cant remember, i love how the physics can adjust so smoothly between portals, such a brilliantly done game.

ags
 
Totally completed it now, apart from some of the stupid achievements. Really really really disappointed at how short the entire game is. It is a good game, but way too short. I don't know what they were thinking :(
 
It wasn't really a full game, you understand. It was a mixture of a couple of things:

A: it was a bunch of students from Digipen who had thought of something new, that Valve had liked the concept of, so they hired them. It was their first professionally published game, it's probable they weren't expected to make a game that rivals Valve's other achievements!

B: it was more of a Showcase of idea's, than a game. They had this brilliant concept with the portals and wanted it out there in the community. It's almost as if all they've done is given you a bunch of tools to make your own levels, then a bunch of idea's for what you can do (levels 1 - 19) and said "go for it guys, go crazy". Valve are so very community orientated it's crazy.

So it was short, but it was exactly what they wanted/needed.
 
^^^ Exactly.

It was never advertised as a full game. In fact they told us it would take 3~ hours to finish for most people. They were spot on with that.
 
The internal valve community is probably very close but they dont care about mod teams or map makers unless they poach them or the mod has a load of players, then they buy it. Keep the team on to finish it and let them all go.

How can you make such a bold statement with absolutely no inside knowledge. The whole package was $30 or so and look what you get for it ... just stop complaining
 
Don't feed the troll! :p
I would probably pay £27 each for EP2, Portal and TF2. The fact I got them all for £27 is just amazing. Maybe I just have low expectations, and if I expected weeks of gameplay for so little money, I'd be annoyed too.

yeah, to be honest iBot you're a pretty annoying troll, and have no idea what you're talking about really eh? Explain to me which mod teams have been let go... im curious.
 
Its the most original and darkly funny game i have played in a very long time. The ending song nearly had me fill my pants. lol

If Bioshock got 10/10 then i'd say Portal deserves 11/10 and a GOTY.

yeah, $30 us and the only good bit of the package was tf2.

almost the entire dod team recently one of the guys behind cs was axed the other left years ago.

the valve camp doesnt seem very nice tbh, 7 years between games sucks too.
 
Ok well I can crawl into the side vent to where the large fan is but nothing happens?

What am I missing?

Shoot a portal through the blades of the fan(should be a white wall on the other side) come out of the vent and shoot the white wall where it says "over here" then step on through
