Portal/Half-Life 2 Clarification [Mar 11, 2007, 2:19 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments

Half-Life has a story up clarifying that Portal in Half-Life 2: Episode Two
is a separate game from Half-Life 2 that does not exist within the Half-Life
continuity (thanks Ant). This strikes us as how the project was described from
the get-go, but in case there was any confusion, they distill a couple of recent
interviews to clarify the situation:
With Portal co-existing in a world along with Half-Life, crossovers are a definite possibility. Unfortunately, according to Kim Swift, we won't be seeing any Portal gun versus Gravity gun duels in the foreseeable future. Rumors surrounding the device's name, "Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device" suggested the return of another Half-Life character, Adrian Shephard. Adrian, the central character to Opposing Force, meets a similar fate to Gordon Freeman under the G-Man. Though the sequel to Half-Life continues Gordon's story, the whereabouts and condition of Adrian is still relatively unknown.
Jesus christ, get over yourself Riley.Why should I? You obviously haven't.
These were interviews from websites...its not like Valve released some press release to announce this.No, a Valve employee, Kim Swift, announced it in a conference at GDC with fellow game professionals that was reported on several major gaming websites including this one. Sure, I don't think it was newsworthy, but obviously some people did including Blue.
If you don't care about Valve or their games why do you insist on making negative comments regarding them?Because the opportunity presented it, and I obviously enjoy it.
Not much of a life you have going there eh?The few minutes at most it took me to write that post certainly didn't keep me from the rest of my activities. Plus, you are absolutely the last person who should be making that charge since my continual criticism of Valve is certainly no worse than yours of me.
