I liked the first Portal, while I love Portal 2. I think that Portal 2 really added alot on the mechanics of the first game, and the story, writing, and jokes are all great. Co-Op is alot of fun, much more challenging than the single player.
I actually thought the song was much better. so you point is not across the board.the Dept of Science said:The only respect in which I find it worse is the song at the end.
On the other hand it makes up for it with the song by the National and the turrets song.
have you even gotten portal two? did you turn your sound off while playing it? did you skip half the game?TheRealCJ said:.
Portal 2 is really just "the same, but more", not a bad thing, of course, but it'll never recapture that amazing feeling of playing a truly perfect game.
I haven't. But I've got it on PS3.tharglet said:In most ways, Portal 2 is better than Portal 1, but I sort of miss some of the difficulty of Portal 1. I enjoyed both games, and would say Portal 2 is mostly better than the first, but I don't define it as clear-cut for me.
(btw, anyone want to help me get the Professor Portal achievement (needs someone who hasn't done co-op yet)? ¬¬)
Yes, I have played it through, Mr. I-know-better-than-you. Thrice.Plazmatic said:have you even gotten portal two? did you turn your sound off while playing it? did you skip half the game?
Which puzzle was that? I played through Portal several times (as did everyone) and I almost never really found different ways of solving a puzzle even after actively trying to do so. But if you can describe which puzzle you're referring to, I might crank it back up and check it out.Generic Gamer said:The only thing Portal 2 did wrong was a lack of portal surfaces.
Remember that puzzle in Portal 1 that no one ever does the way the dev team designed it? Well Portal 2 didn't have any freeform creative puzzles, there was always a single right way to do it.
This is a common trend for an answer and while there's absolutely nothing wrong with it, imo, may I confess that I don't fully "comprehend" why being a surprise Wild card was a pro for Portal1?TheRealCJ said:All I said was that it was less surprising than the first one. I knew the dialogue was going to be hilarious, I knew that the song by Jonathan Coulton was going to rapidly become one of my favourites, I knew the puzzles were going to be amazingly complex, I knew what to expect.
I played the first Portal game with no idea what I was getting into when I first started playing.
