Portal 2 is just a month old. You're not left behind.

Valve did fulfill their promise on releasing Portal 2 ON TIME as it was stated in Portal's ending credit song "Still Alive" by GLaDOS.


You can listen to it via Youtube video since I don't know how to post a music on a post or if I really can.
But to those who haven't played Portal, my adivce is better not listen to it. It might spoil the ending for you.


Portal 2 just got released last April 19 via Steam and the day after the  official release you can get Portal 2 via torr... er, I meant your 'preferred' download site.

Well I did finish Portal 2 a week before terrible things happened, like my GPU being fried.
It was good 'ol 12 hours of perfect gameplay.

So, Portal 2 is the sequel of a very successful mod for Half Life 2 or you could call it a demo. So the story continues as Chell the protagonist of Portal awakes from stasis and finds an annoying, funny and utterly talkative Artificial Intelligence Core that takes form of an orb, and he calls himself Wheatley. Wheatley has a very BIG role in the story and he might even disappoint you. And yes, here comes GLaDOS again, the meanest Artificial Intelligence in history, like Wheatley who has a very BIG role, GLaDOS will also have an amazing transformation which will change her, yes change her, but for awhile and a bit. The companion cube also returns and you will still need to incinerate it after the puzzle. Those cute but highly dangerous droid turrets again will always try to kill you, don't worry they are still immobile. Some new things will be introduced, the Thermal Discouragement Beam is a laser that replaced Portal's High Energy Pellet and the Weighted Pivot Cube comes along the Beam which deflects the laser. Some useful gels called mobility gels are also introduced in the later part of the game it will become very useful, these gels are the repulsion gel, propulsion gel and the conversion gel. There are also new characters which is Wheatley and Aperture Science' CEO Cave Johnson, who only appears thru prerecorded audio messages that will guide you and entertain your loneliness in the old facilities. New gameplay is also available the Co-op mode which will let you control two robots, P-body and Atlas. And lastly, this device will not make Aperture Science and Portal 2 successful without it, the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device or for short the famous Portal Gun.

Well if you ask me, my review for the game, I'll give it four out of four stars ahead. All I can say is the game is Perfect, EPIC, pure, refined, I can't express it's perfection. I expressed the game's perfection by crying. It will give you challenging puzzles but not to the extent you can't solve the puzzle. Somehow, someway, you WILL be able to solve it and proceed to the next puzzle, all you need to do is to use all the resources in the test chambers, that is when your creativity and resourcefulness measured and assures you a +100 IQ after you finish the game (that is why I have 200 IQ). The game ended very very well, it possessed it's perfection till the end, that is why I cried. Although it ended well, we Portal fans ask more! We need Portal 3!

So what are you waiting? Grab it, Buy it and torr... ehem... nope that is bad, it'll hurt their sales and will not give us a next sequel if you do that. So please, please, please BUY IT. I assure you, you will cream in yer pants if you finish the game. This how my blog came to be inspired by Portal, it is a portal of game news and all about games.
