Portal 2 Delayed To 2011, But Valve Has A Good Reason

Originally slated for release sometime before Christmas 2010, Valve and Aperture Laboratories LLC have decided to push the release back into 2011, because...

They Better have a good reason Portal is my fav valve game

[GodsHand]

Yeah, they said "making games is HARD". Was that a good enough reason. I suspose HL2:episode 3 is hard to make too, valve over shot that date too by a over a year.

[ColdFire]

In VALVe I trust

[N4GAddict]

Valve can take their sweet time.

[mikepmcc]

Quit giving them shit, the original portal was extremely difficult to develop due to the unique physics. This one is similar, but magnified to 1000 with all the new abilities and such, so if we want a great, bug-free game, they can take all the time in the world.

[TROLL EATER]

take ur time on it, but not too much time. cos u better be working on HALF LIFE 3 LOOL

[N4GAddict]

2011 will be just as packed as 2010.

Funny, Portal 2's delay has already hit the Valve Time page.

@Xiphos

Now that is a hilarious time sheet

[AliTheBrit19]

NO!!!!!!!!!!

GOD DAMMIT THIS WAS ONE OF MY MOST ANTICIPATED GAMES OF 2010 :(

So excuse the caps.

[danielle007]

Me too. It's a heartbreaking day. I love Valve.. and Portal.

But, maybe there's a silver lining somewhere. I'm going to stay optimistic until after E3.

[chak_]

most anticipated game of '11 then?

Well that sucks, but if they delay it to work on something half life related that's fine ^^

[drsnobby]

I,m fine with the delay.i wouldn,t mind an orange box 2 coming out for the 360.TF2 is a blast on PC and i,m loving every second of it.

[LebaNoob]

Well that's sad news :(

[FuckinUsername]

get working on HL episode 3 then? :P

[pimpmaster]

great portal pushed into 2011 due to left 4 dead 3

[danielle007]

I preordered it the first day it was available at GameStop, and I'll leave my $5 on there. I'm still super excited for it, sucks I have to try to be more patient.. Holiday was long enough.. But, I guess you can't rush genius.. or else you end up with horrible characters like in L4D2.. ohhhh, snap. crackle pop.

Anyways, Valve always keeps us waiting.. At the moment my Valve waiting list is episode 3, the smoker plushie, and Portal 2.... and for my boomer plushie to finally arrive in the mail.... But, it's always worth the wait, imo. Even if I'm the most impatient lady ever... everever. I'm antsy now just thinking of all the waiting I have to do.. I check the Valve store every day to see when they release the next infected plush... it's ridic.
