Yup, and we all know what happened to the old Samus. *sniff* DAMN YOU TEAM NINJA!
Don't worry. I doubt Valve will ever do to her what Nintendo did to Samus. Who knows? Chell's fought off questionably organic supercomputers and already warped space time, she could well become the next great defender of the galaxy. Or the portals somehow created an alternate dimension that fused Portal and Metroid, and that's where Metroid Prime came from. (Explains the fact that it suddenly became an FPS, anyway...)

Anyway, this is by far my favorite of the videos so far, it works with the black humor fantastically well, I'm really glad we finally see Chell in one of the video ads, and THOSE BOOTS. I want a pair T_T Even if they don't work, they look awesome. And comfy.

Anyway, that was pretty damn funny, probably the best "investment opportunity" trailer so far. I like how the robot just seems up the human remains in the beginning.

Wow... I dunno why I got hungry by just watching the video... *drools*

Still, i'm gonna wait until Valve puts Portal 2 on a sale by, say, next year... By that time, my PC is already upgraded. *kicks rudimentary PC*

Don't worry, she'll rise up from that shitty game better than ever! :D

OT: I love these little ad's they have made for the game so far, my co-worker and I love the turrent one the best. I love those little tiny people they have in the ad's doing stuff and the panels scooping the remains of the person into a fire.

Haha, never mind the poor splattered test subject. As long as the equipment is ok.

I love Valve. These have been some of the best trailers for a game I've ever seen. I can't wait 'til launch.

Loved that part with the panel sweeping the body away!

Oh sorry, *spoiler alert!* but come on, who reads these before watching the video anyway?

Ya they definately made a good choice firing those advertising agencies and doing things themselves.

This is again awesome, like the other videos. I love Chell's new look and if the humour in the game is like in these videos then I won't be dissapointed.
And FINALLY pre-load for Portal 2. I can't wait for another week.

Cave Johnson is a really good spokesperson. He should do ads for other games as well. :D

Looking forward to Portal 2 so much. Idk what I'm more excited for, the Co-op or the single player.

Yay for Chell Exposition! I love the co-op bots but it was about time Chell got her limelight. Considering this is probably the last Aperture ad before game release, this makes me sad that they didn't do one for the SuperButton.
GlaDOS likes those buttons. No wonder she killed everyone.

Looks like those boots weren't made for walking
Those boots were made for AWESOME.

Between this and the concept art put out previously, this really makes me wonder...can we actually make boots that perform like that?
Gentlemen/ladies/bots....we have the technology. Let's do this!

Can we all just stop for a minute and talk about how perfect J.K. Simmons is as Cave Johnson? I mean, seriously.

Plan:
Step 1: Somehow get Valve the rights to develop a Metroid game
Step 2: Spend the time until release of said game exposing myself to more and more concentrated awesome.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Profit for valve!


OT: That trailer just screamed 'THIS GAME WILL BE AWESOME' in my face.

Only because Samus wasn't.

ya know it's gonna be a sad day if they ever make Samus better(As a character) and somemone thinks they only did it to copy Chell.(Not that it's the other way around now.)

Absolutely. These have been some of my favourite ads for anything, ever.
