All this portal 2 hype and little games related to having it released early... its ok if you actually plan or like the games, but there is no way in hell I would be playing something I dont really care for just to have a chance at portal 2 being released early... There is plenty of good games to play and little time. Valve may think that Portal 2 is some kind of second coming of christ or something but in reality its just another game.

I don't ever plan on playing it on the PS3 so I just bought it for Steam. Portal with a controller just doesn't appeal to me.

I might play it with my girlfriend split-screen CO-Op on the PS3...

Yeah, if you ever get a girlfriend.

I'm hoping this as well but I'm doubting they'll allow this, the online code for the ps3 will likely allow that copy, ps3 or pc, to play online. But if I can play it on my pc and my brother in law can use the ps3 copy then that will be awesome.

Besides that has blues been over-ran with console lobbyist? Who wants to play portal on the ps3 or xbox when they can get it for PC on steam, and play it early once the PC community works together to open it up?

Amazon's deals for the console versions is the best (effectively making it $35)...especially if you want to suck it up, get the PS3 version, and take the free PC/Mac version.

How do you get that deal? The game (PS3 version) is coming up as $54.99 for me.

Get a $20 Amazon.com Credit
Pre-order Portal 2 for PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360 and receive $5 off the original price of $59.99 as well as $20 in promotional credit toward the purchase of items shipped and sold by Amazon.com.

Where is it cheaper? It's $55/$45 everywhere... and if you buy the potato sack/portal 2 bundle you get portal 2 for $40.

"As a tester, my job is finding bugs and doing what they call 100% coverage run test. They also called us into meetings and asked us our opinions about a lot of things. I said the game was boring and doomed to be a failure."

I doubt the concept. It's odd that they offer those 2 factions, instead of forcing the player to balance between economy and an healthy environment.
I mean, what other requirements can there be in the future in city building? You don't need fire watchers, a church or a local depot just around each corner. So what is left from the Anno concept?

I really want MP ME.

Yea, people said the same thing about the coolness of Bioshock's plasmids and how MP would be 'nifty'...how'd that work out with Bioshock 2?

It may have been nifty if Irrational Games had made it. More likely they made completely the right choice by not including it in Bioshock.

Ken Levine seems to have completely the right attitude about multiplayer. To leave it out unless they can come up with something very unique and interesting; not just deathmatch with plasmids. http://www.1up.com/news/irrational-games-undecided-multiplayer-bioshock

I think Bioware also understands that their greatest strength is story telling. And it's not in their interest to get into the oversaturated online shooter market unless they come up with a novel sort of MP.

So apparently it's peaceful in the South, West, and East trailers. Funny, I don't remember there being an RV park in Middle Earth.

The Tolkien kids are sucking it for all it's worth. The Old Man never would have allowed this kind of pastiche stuff.

The purpose of the platform isn't to deliver free games, it's to be a marketplace, and I was critiquing the marketplace. While the snafu with the free game promotion was annoying, it was far from the biggest problem I experienced.
