So I'm about a hundred years late to this party, but I still want to talk about the mind-melting awesomeness of PORTAL, and how you should play both of these games RIGHT NOW if you like any of the following ( Read more... )

Damn! That game looks awesome, I'm bummed it's PC-only. But yeah, gaming life and real life: why must you be at odds? :| The good news is that games only get cheaper the longer you wait.

Thanks for the Portal pimping... we're not huge gamers, but that one has sounded interesting, so thanks for the excuse to buy it!

Sure thing! Hope you enjoy! It's the most fun I've had gaming in a LONG time, and I really do think it has a wide appeal. I know people that barely game at all and love this series. (Portal 2 has a co-op campaign that allows you to complete puzzles with a second player; the husband and I are going to use it as our next marital therapy session, ha.)

Thanks for the rec, this sounds like something I'll like. I'm not a big gamer, but I've heard good things about Portal and never actually tried it out. Now I'm going to.

Awesome! Glad I could push you over the edge. ;] Hope you have fun with it - the hype is right in this case, IMO. And it really is perfect for a casual gamer, since it's more about problem solving than prowess with a controller (or keyboard).
