Ah portal. The perfect game. There isn't a single thing wrong with it. It is amazing from begining to end. Basically it's a puzzle solving game, you have a gun that creates 2 portals (see above) you can walk through the portals and move objects through them. Use to solve. Thats it. Portal was concepted as a game called Narbacular Drop by a few students at a tech college for a contest. Valve caught wind of it and hired them to flesh out the concept and what we got was portal. The game is simple, the only character is you and GLADOS, a HAL like AI who is walking you through a series of tests. Portals comedy is so pitch black that your friendly neighborhood goth kid could add it to their wardrobe. it's part of the orange box or seperate on steam and the 2 market places, pick it up if you've never played it cause as i said, it is perfect

Portal is an excellent game. Good choice sir. I started to make another post for The Orange Box as a whole, but never got around to it.
