Portal 2 is coming in the next few days, and I really can't wait! My older bro and I decided to buy the game together to get 20% off each copy! That means we saved $20 all together. Steam has sales like that all the time, except that they're usually far bigger sales saving you even more money. Sometimes, games will be sold at dirt cheap prices like $2.50, even when their retail price is 29.99 or even 59.99.
I wonder how rich that dude that owns most of Steam is? Gabe Newell is the guy. I remember reading one time that he probably has made over $1,000,000,000 dollars off of it (or close to it, anyway). Nonetheless, let's get back to that awesome game of Portal 2, which the article is titled.
Portal had that awesome computer GlaDos and her android test subject, Chell; Chell is returning in this game, along with GlaDos. Two new characters, robots, will be brought in as well. There are two campaigns in the game - the single player featuring Chell, GlaDos and a new robot. Coop - you must play this mode with another person (I'll be playing with my brother that I bought the game with), and you play as the two new robot characters.
This game has about four times the content of Portal, because each new campaign is about double the length of Portal. I really hope the story in Portal 2 is as awesome as it was in the first one! Valve is very good at telling stories without blatantly saying it in the game, like most companies would. Valve reveals it through gameplay, characters, environments, dialog, etc.
I'm sure it'll be awesome. :D
p.s. buying the PS3 version gets you the PC and Mac version free!!! (NOT the other way around, though..)
