Horrible, the puzzles are seemingly impossible, the humor is cheesy and dumb, and I could ramble on all day.

So, because the puzzles in a puzzle game are challenging, it's not very good? And I LOVE the humor! It's genius!  big_smile

The humor is amazing if I do say so myself. The insults work amazing on bullies, cuz they don't know how to respond to it. Also, the puzzles are great. They really help yplou to think outside the box. If you don't like puzzles though, don't play this game.

The story is also amazing. In portal 1 there was a big mystery as to where all the peolpe went, and you had to find out what happened. The portal 2 story is also great because you find out about who GLaDOS really is, and how the company started. Also the whole Wheatley thing shows that absolute power means absolute corruption, which may teach us to not let 1 person to have to much power. Anyways, great game.

This. And I think you have seriously offended GLaDOS2, imnotbob.


Oh, the glory of it all - adorable cat people dressed as video game characters!

You means imsosuperswell?

Anyway, honestly, he said he was hardcore gamer in some post one time and now says "Oh that one is too hard.  sad " Seriously, he may be a hardcore gamer but he has no taste.

@imsosuperswell1:

You said my jokes are cheesy? They're DARK, not CHEESY. You're just JEALOUS that P0RTAL is better than ponies, aren't you?

Ponies have been popular since 2010,

P0RTAL has been popular since 2007.

3 years makes a VERY large difference, you know.

And I KNOW ponies came out in the 80's, but people thought they sucked.
Until 2010 when the pony cartoon was released.

GLaDOS isn't actually witty; it's just her deadpan delivery of insidious threats and other commentary that makes her so funny.

And I don't see how MLP factors into this, or how age affects quality at all.

Re: What do you think of Portal?

Anyways Portal is very fun and satisfying. However it only lasts for a short period of time. The puzzles are then just not special anymore and I have to rely on custom maps to keep the replayabilty going.

Yeah... I beat the second one before the first (I like the story better in Portal 2  tongue  ) and when I got to the first room with Turrets in Portal 1 and turned around I was like "WUT?" 0_o *stares the turret down* "I'm gonna get you for that"
XD

The Portal games are the most fun computer games I've ever played really. I love the humor.... I've memorized the lemon rant  tongue

Now I'm waiting for Valve to release "Want You Gone" on iTunes... and the turret opera.

Re: What do you think of Portal?

The story is amazing. I loved portal 2. I also think it is a bad choice by Valve if they do not continue the game. I mean the concept, the characters and the comedy just make it amazing. Anyway my favorite part of the game.

"When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your darn lemons, what the heck am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!” Ah the gell and PHOTaDOS
