The reviews of the PC edition of Portal 2 on Metacritic reflect the unhappiness of some users with Valve's just-released puzzle sequel. While the game boasts a 95 score based on critics' scores, the user score has dropped to 7.3, as there are 101 negative reviews as of this writing, many of them giving the game a zero. GamesIndustry.biz (registration required) summarizes the situation: The complaints appear to come primarily from PC users, upset that the game is a console port - and even includes references to turning off the 'console' when saving. Most anger, though, seems to be directed at the online store - which is already filled with downloadable content.
The volume of day one downloadable content seems to have come as a surprise to many PC users, unused to the console-style arrangement. They have also expressed disappointment at the game's short running time and the controversial ARG promotional campaign - which tempted players into buying unrelated indie titles.

Cabezone wrote on Apr 20, 2011, 12:37: The mouse is in no way floaty...which would be a deal breaker. It's just a bit of weirdness in how the character moves around. Exactly, it just feels a bit loose. I probably wouldn't even have noticed it but I just finished Portal 1 a few days ago and that game had pretty tight controls. Not a big deal though, most people will have adjusted by the second test chamber assuming they notice at all. |
