Is the cake still a lie?

I am so looking forward to this.

Also, was anyone aware of the new Portal ending?

Yes, I've already assumed the party escort submission position.

Do the achievement with the 26 Radios and a whole bunch of crap that follows it if you're too impatient to wait for the game.

Apparently if you get all the radios you can work out from some message the release date of Portal 2 or something. I can't honestly remember what exactly X D It does say what though on the Half Life wiki. So there is point to it but I guess its there to also get people playing Portal to hype them up for the second.

Yes, looks to be rather enjoyable. I'm more looking forward to Fallout: New Vegas though.

You're not a real fanboy then, Sachi. I've wanted Portal 2 since I heard of Portal 1. :D

I'M SO HAPPY.

Did you see the 'item' off to the right @ 0.28 seconds in? I'm very, very excited for this game. For one, the new level from the previews we've seen so far look like some of the best mapping/shader/texture work that Valve has ever done (I must stress that it looks soooooo good! because it's soooooooo aesthetically awesome!).

Oh, and I'm excited about using Portals again too. It's been a loooong time.

That's some of the most creative stuff I've seen in a video game in a looong time. It also looks very tricky though, possibly more tricky than say, Test Chamber 18 in Advanced mode...

BUMP! MORE DISCUSSING!
Game of the year for sure:
*Wheatley was pure genius
*All of Cave Jhonson's lines were gold!
*Space Core. Nuff said.
*Loads of Easter eggs
*Ending was awesome. I was like "YES YES" when i saw it.

(Rest contains spoilers for Portal 2's ending. Don't open if you haven't finished the game. You WILL cut yourself after you realize how much awesomeness was spoiled.)

SPOILER: Show
The ending was not perfect tough. So many unanswered questions...
*What is going to happen with Chell?
*^or Wheatley
*^or Caroline
*And most importantly, what about DOUG RATTMANN? What the heck happend to him?

Anything can happen to Chell. That was the point of the ending. She's free. It appears that Gordon Freeman saved the planet from the Combine, so she can finally live a life. The details don't even really matter.

As for Caroline...

She was a lot like you
Maybe not quite as heavy
Now little Caroline is in here too


Really, I don't think there's anything wrong with an ending that doesn't wrap up everything in a neat little package.

We can't know for sure that he did. Maybe Chell got headcrab'd one second after the screen goes black.

I don't think there'd be any beautiful fields around, even in the far corners of the earth, if the Combine's policy of strip-mining and annihilation had continued on.
