Valve’s new FPS/puzzler “Portal”

Posted by Bug-E on July 19th, 2006

Oh. My. God.

This game looks *awesome*!!!!!

Valve (Halflife and Halflife 2 gods), are using the HL2 engine to create this game called Portal.

OK, I tried to embed the video from gamevideos.com, but it seemed to screw a bit with the layout of the site in Firefox. Not sure why, so you’ll have to click on the link. :-)
They have two versions of the video, a normal quality and a High-Def one.

It also turns out that Portal will not be a standalone game (well, it seems like that anyway), but will in fact be a free addon to the soon-to-be-released Half-Life 2 : Episode 2. I haven’t even played Episode 1 yet. *sigh* There were some mentions of Episode 2 and Portal over at steampowered.com the other day.

Even joystiq.com mentions the game footage trailer. heh.
