If you haven't heard of it then I'll enlighten you. The basic concept is that you have a 'portal gun' which, as the name implies, creates portals which you can instantly travel though. It also has the same functions as the gravity gun from Half-Life. This introduces heaps of new gameplay elements, such as opening a portal over something that is firing at you, and then creating another portal beneath a crate. The crate will then fall through the hole and hit the aggressor.
The game is set in the Half-Life universe, and will be shipped for free along with Half-Life 2: Episode Two. Here are some videos showing the concept in motion (via YouTube): Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=if3Qv2tHyfA Gameplay video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTzUdTIglTk Personally I think the concept is absolutely amazing. Though it may appear to be ripping off Prey, in actuality Portal has been under construction for quite a long time. Besides, in Portal the game revolves around these holes, whereas in Prey it was more of an add-on. I can't wait to try it out. |

The game isn't actually out yet, so there are no ratings thus far.
