If it's as long as Portal 1, then I completely agree A Deathwatch Guard Send a noteboard - 20/04/2011 10:54:31 PM
And if it's much longer... then I'm going to get bored of it. As yahtzee said, portal was the perfect length because it left you wanting more, but never crossed the line where it became repetitive or monotonous. For those that wanted to stretch the gameplay out there were all the additional challenges and puzzles, after all, so everyone had something.

As fun as Portal 1 was, I would never have gotten it if not for the Orange Box, not unless it was selling for $10 or less. And the same goes for Portal 2. Maybe $15 for it, but no higher.

And in answer to Zalis above, if Bulletstorm (a name that is vaguely familiar to me?) is a crappy game and costs more than Portal 2, that still doesn't mean that Portal 2 is a good value. It just means that they're both ridiculously overpriced. As a rule of thumb, I typically want to get an hour of enjoyment for every dollar spent. But my expectations have no doubt been tainted by RPGs.

Agreed. As masterful as Portal was, I'd rather wait for a price drop. *NM* - 20/04/2011 07:25:16 PM 390 Views
My cousin has similar feelings. - 20/04/2011 07:25:54 PM 813 Views
Stating that it seems overpriced to her != a "holier than thou" attitude. - 20/04/2011 07:35:51 PM 677 Views

Easy... - 21/04/2011 03:31:55 PM 682 Views
Bulletstorm is single-player + coop only and sold for $60. What do you want? - 20/04/2011 09:14:34 PM 714 Views
Given that short review, I'd say anyone buying Bulletstorm is being severely ripped off. - 21/04/2011 12:45:06 AM 582 Views
To be fair, it's my opinion of the BS (hah) demo. A case of interesting gimmick + bad execution. - 21/04/2011 01:35:25 AM 727 Views
okay I get the point you were trying to make with your comparison... - 21/04/2011 01:54:16 AM 670 Views
Gotcha. What's game would be a Day One purchase for you, though? - 21/04/2011 02:50:13 AM 704 Views
I'm not sure, honestly. - 21/04/2011 03:20:33 AM 687 Views
Bulletstorm was a lot of fun. The demo didn't do it justice. - 21/04/2011 12:53:12 PM 1124 Views
If it's as long as Portal 1, then I completely agree - 20/04/2011 10:54:31 PM 701 Views
you explained why I was surprised at the price well here. - 21/04/2011 12:41:40 AM 776 Views
It's about twice as long. Leaving it at 6-8 hours, basically. - 21/04/2011 02:50:53 AM 707 Views
thank you - 21/04/2011 05:23:37 PM 691 Views
