Get the Portal 2 Soundtrack (Legally) Free!

No, no I don't. There is no excuse for the DK Rap. It's one of the few things in this world that goes down from "Just plain bad", straight past "So bad it's good", and all the way to "So bad it's pour bleach down my ears!!!".Thorvan said:
OT: I'm actually kind of disappointed with this soundtrack... None of the songs seem worth listening to by themselves, apart from maybe "Turret Wife Serenade". I can see them working as background noise or for atmosphere (which is how I'll experience them when I finally get Portal 2), but I don't think they work as actual music.
Also for added disappointment it doesn't include the ending song, which is the main reason I downloaded it in the first place. I guess I should have paid more attention to the words "SOUNDTRACK VOLUME 1".
Better than them being Abstergo or Umbrella.teqrevisited said:
Back to the topic, this sort of offer is something that really gets on my good side in terms of music. I love when bands put up a few free songs on their sites for me to legally download, and it almost always ends with me returning to them later because I remember them as the kind artists that gave me a song of theirs to sample.
In other words, I'll more than likely check out parts 2 and 3 (if Valve gets over their little 3 problem they seem to have, otherwise we'll probably see them start up an new album project and have fans waiting for the last one here), even if they aren't free as well.
I think this was Insanely cool of Valve to do. It's not like they owed the Fans this in any capacity. Had Portal 2 been an abortion of a game sequel then perhaps, but it was easily one of the best games of the year. Aside from the quality of the game itself, one of it's strongest points was the soundtrack, and now we get it for free. Unreal.
I haven't picked up Portal 2 since I played through it for the 8th time awhile back. I'd almost forgotten how sweet the music was. It's like the whole thing was written by Daft Punk, or at least heavily influenced by them. Awesome, just awesome. Cheers, Valve. You're true mates.

I never get tired of the music they sneak in with the discouragement beam receptors. I could just see Chell nodding her head to the beat as she headed out of the test chamber.
Still, that isn't so hard. Valve seems to want to put out a good game that people will like. SE has yet to get the memoKysafen said:

valve will always be my favorite developer. they know how to make a good game. soundtrack for free is even better. just i cant get in to the music of this game.
I've always been partial to the term awfulsome as just a mash of awful and awesome.Thorvan said:
