Awesome. Valve is getting serious about their PS3 games.

tdogg060519915229d ago (Edited 5229d ago )

I just hope the move implementation is good like in Killzone 3.
Thumbs up if you hope for Red and Blue lights on the Move when you shoot portals.

mandf5229d ago

I would like to see them make a portal gun that fits the move inside.

@mandf

Soooo full of win!

vsr5229d ago

WOW !!!!

WIN!!!!!!!! for Gamers !!!!!!!!!

callahan095229d ago

Very cool. I pre-ordered the PS3 version yesterday, and I'm hoping I can register it to my Steam account and download the game on my PC, then hand the PS3 disc off to my girlfriend so we can play co-op together, with her on the PS3 and me on the PC. If this works, with just one copy of the game, I'll be proclaiming Valve as the greatest of all time!

buffig5229d ago

it will work, that's the idea and why this prospect is so appealing.

TravUK5229d ago

You won't be able to log in on your PC as well as on your PS3 at the same time as both copies will be linked to one Steam account and you cannot be logged in at two places at the same time.

Otherwise everyone would be sharing copies!

callahan095229d ago

Do you think that you get to keep the Steam account version if you ever sell the PS3 version? And if not, how would they police that so that you have to actively own the PS3 version in order to use the Steam version if you don't buy the Steam version separately?

Commander_TK5229d ago

Valve IS the greatest of all time. They treat the gamers well. Look at how they're supporting Team Fortress after all those years.

ksense5229d ago

I really don't think you can sell the PS3 version if you link it with the PC version. Because people would just abuse it and sell the ps3 version as soon as they activate it on PC.

Most likely they will warn you before activating it to the PC that you will not be able to sell it.

TravUK5229d ago

Once the games are linked to your Steam account I'm guessing they're are linked for good. Helps combat the used-games market you see.

If it was up to valve you would buy one copy of a game & have it on all platforms! Sony wouldn't want that though! seems valve can afford to lose money!

Razer has motion controls with exclusive levels & puzzles for portal 2! Might just pick up the $45 dollar version on pc though or $80 get two copies & give one to a friend..

TBM5229d ago

I gotta be honest here I was never that fond of the first game, buut now that this one has Move support, cloud saving, and can be played co-op(if I read right from previous articles) I can definitely see myself getting this for PS3 and playing with my friends

jack_burt0n5229d ago

Woah, I'd pay £100 for the ps3 version of portal 2.

Valve = total win.

Will spend all the money i can spare on steam.

Simon's Quest is better than Symphony.

djl348532d ago

If you're gonna troll, at least make a legitimate attempt.

Levii_9233d ago

Hot damn that's a good list. The only one i never played is AOE2 and i never finshed Chrono Trigger but it was damn good.

Speaking of what's old but holds up amazingly well and plays like a dream.. i played Symphony of the Night for the first time in 2019.. yep that's right. It became one of my favourite games of all time that i replay almost every year. I couldn't believe how good it was. That is almost impossible for me with newer games let alone older ones. Truly a special gem.

LG_Fox_Brazil32d ago

That's a pretty fucking great list

__y2jb32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

The only one I’d disagree with is doom. It shows its age badly I think. After 5 minutes of play these days you put it down.

Steam's highest-rated game is now less than a dollar in the Spring Sale

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."

TheEroica449d ago

Portal deserves to be one of steams highest rated games... It's almost tetris levels of perfect game design.

TheEnigma313449d ago

It's a great game, but highly overrated. But for $1, it's an amazon deal.

Friendlygamer449d ago

Valve should bring their games to ps5

Kados449d ago (Edited 449d ago )

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.

Friendlygamer448d ago

That's sweet, I've been thinking about building a modest pc to play some oldies

shinoff2183456d ago

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.

Cacabunga456d ago

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.

Name Last Name456d ago

I mean some sequels are objectively better and you don’t need to play the whole series.

Inverno456d ago

But most of these games have a story to follow, sure you can catch up with a YouTube vid but where's the fun in that?

LucasRuinedChildhood456d ago (Edited 456d ago )

A list like this isn't telling you not to play the previous games if you want to. It's just giving you legendary games to play.

But tbh, you don't always have to force yourself to play every entry in a franchise to get to the better ones.

- The vast majority of Witcher 3 players never played the first 2 and had a great time. The first 2 games aren't in the same league.
- The GTA games are self-contained with the odd fun reference. You can easily jump into any of them.
- The Shadow Of The Colossus remake looks and controls better than the original (plus it has a 60fps option while the remaster is just 30fps). New players will enjoy it more.
- Portal 2 is a lot better than Portal 1 and takes the concept much further gameplay-wise. Storywise, Portal 1 is fairly light too. Not that you shouldn't play it but realistically ... you'd love Portal 2 whether you play it or not (at lot of Portal 2 players have never played 1).

Bioshock 1 is the only one I agree with you on simply because it's one the best games of all time and arguably better than Infinite. No other setting like Rapture.

Looking at the list, I'd recommend playing Uncharted 1 before 2 but no doubt, 2 is the legendary one you have to play.

Inverno456d ago

I get it, but that's just my opinion on his opinion. I just think that before you play a sequel you should still play what came before it. Maybe it's just me but i find it fascinating playing through the first game in a series and seeing how it has evolved through its sequels. Like I said I don't disagree with the list, other than SoTC which I strongly believe the remaster of the original should be played above the remake.

AuraAbjure456d ago

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.
