Made2Game.com - Portal 2 may be a quite brilliant title, but James Bowden argues it doesn't quite reach the same dizzy heights achieved by the original Portal.
Jack writes: "Yet again browsing the latest offers in the Steam Spring Sale has led us to track down the very best. In terms of price to quality, we don’t think that it gets much better than this. Portal 2 is now less than a dollar, and if you haven’t got it already, now is the time to pick it up."
Portal deserves to be one of steams highest rated games... It's almost tetris levels of perfect game design.
Gotta love Steam. Just got Portal 2 for .97 cents CAD. Should have been $1.29, selected the bundle with Portal 1 and 2, which gets a 25% discount, already have Portal 1, so it removes the cost of that, and still applies the full 25% bundle discount to Portal 2. 90% + 25% discount.
Given the medium's wild diversity, this primer of the essential video games everyone should try is a good place to start.
I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.
Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1
Abe’s Odyssey
FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG
LINK 2 the past
Street Fighter 2
Resident Evil 1
Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.
Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.
Chris Brandrick, writing for overkill, speaks to Stefan Heinz, the lead developer on Portal: Revolution, a new fan-made campaign prequel to Portal 2.
valve suck so much at making games now, opting just to smaug on top of an enormous pile of money,
that fans got so desperate that they have to make their own games.
this industry is fucking over.
Sorry, but the 2nd one is leaps and bounds better and that is coming from someone who loves the original as well.
Finished Portal 2. So overrated it's not even funny. Way too easy. I would give an 8/10. Somehow being different means it's 96/100. No. No it does not.
...imo
really? the second one is 10x better and I'm only on chapter 8. and yes I have played and completed the first Portal
Yeeeaaaahhhhhhhhh, NO!
Portal 2 is way better than portal 1. Portal 2 IMO easily the best valve made game ever.
Portal better then Portal 2......Not really
The only thing which bugged me about Portal 2 is that they cut the single player in half for co-op and it's made Valve take this "Co-op added someway in every game we make" path.
I know it was longer then the first but when you got to the end you wanted more from it :)
