    Portal 2

    Time for a less title restricted thread me thinks...

    So to kick off, GiantBomb's posted a Quick Look showing both single player and co-op footage of the 360 version (complete with jaggies).

    I've already pre-ordered the PC version in time for returning from my holiday, so happy Easter all, I'm off to the New Forest now
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Re: Portal 2

    I'm going to grab it on the PS3 which means I will also get the PC version. Will be interesting to see how Steam actually works out on PS3 and the cross platform gaming.

    Re: Portal 2

    Anyone here (with a trust rating preferably) wanna go for the 2 pack? Will work out at £23.99 instead of £26.99. Plus we'd get 2 free copies of Portal to give away.

    Re: Portal 2

    Selfishly I hope it isnt as I`m working nights this weekend so wouldnt be able to play it till next week.

    I kinda like the idea of bribing ppl with an early release if they play some indie games especially as some of the games there are pretty awesome. Although Amnesia Scares me

    just a sales ploy to make you buy crap games you don't want/need
