It's short, but it's also set-up for the sequel. Werthead Send a noteboard - 21/05/2010 09:40:38 AM
Though, as the game designers said, PORTAL was designed to be a short gaming experience. 7 or 8 hours of portal puzzles would probably be too much without more variety.

Makes me wonder how PORTAL 2 is going to work. It's a stand-alone, 'full' game which suggests it will be significantly larger in size, but if it is they'll have to have made it more varied than the original, but too many new features would eliminate the simplicity that's part of PORTAL's charm. Guess we'll find out in the autumn.

I'm a little annoyed they seem to make you connect to even play. LadyLorraine - 14/05/2010 01:25:19 PM 724 Views
Yeah, that's a pain. Darth_Katie - 14/05/2010 02:22:25 PM 726 Views
Steam should have an "Offline Mode" for you to turn on somewhere. (at least, on the PC) Zalis - 14/05/2010 03:40:21 PM 714 Views
