Portal 2 "Insane Cube Tricks" Part Two Gets Even Zanier

[schrobotindisguise]

If this is really you, then......respect. I fucking love Portal but I can't imagine I'd ever get that good at cube tricks. Hell, I can't even trick any cubes

It's not that hard when you get into it. The 360 on the arial faith plate in the first part, i did that on the spur of the moment and landed it first time. That's when i got addicted lol. But yeah, lets just say, some of the other tricks weren't landed first time

The things we do while we wait for DLC (and when we are autistic)!

Holy crap! That last one probably took him about 10,000 times.

I had never heard a couple of those phrases from Glados. I guess I tried not to trap myself too often.

That last one was epic!! And the bloopers were really nice as well. Looking forward to the last one!

Thanks Tom for a great article! I'm glad you singled out the gel covered box trick, that was quite difficult, so i'm glad you noticed it.

This comment made me lol. One of my friends has started calling me rain man

oh lawdy. Just how creative and autistic can we get.

Is there any way to prove you're the guy in the video? Cuz if you are, that's impressive!

4:25...best throw ever. Even if I learned how to throw these things, I don't believe I'd ever make that long shot.

Heehee, thanks. Post a link to one of your videos and i'll comment on it lol

I'm not as impressed considering he probably doing 20-30 takes before he get ones that goes into the video.

It'll be interesting to see if this mechanic can be used in the DLC content. I'm hoping they put in the old 'least steps' 'least portals' 'least time' runs. It'll be interesting to see how this mechanic impacts those game types.

Well, I don't even have a youtube account, but I believe you. And a tip for you, here [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/edit] you can add your youtube info and such.

I really liked all the stuff with the killer droids, and the last throw was made of pure win.

 

[Dr. Pepper Unlimited]

That's some amazing cube action right there. That last throw was pure insanity.

 

[ATmatey36]

I like how these aren't really game breakers, since they're so hard to do, on a console it's probably borderline impossible.

Watch part 1, he says its on a 360 with max sensitivity, sounds crazy but I cant argue with results

Oh wow, guess proved me wrong then. All the more impressive I guess

 

[Riddle78]

That player seems to have a working knowledge of the consepts of momentum and inertia. Bravo!!!

 

[MrGFunk]

This is creative longevity.

Who needs challenge maps? I guarantee I couldn't do these moves.

When the level editor tools for this start taking off this dude will blow our minds.

Man, I'm looking forward to that. People with a lot more time than me will make some great maps. My days for Level editors was done with Timesplitters.

 

[samsonguy920]

Hard as I look, I am not even seeing exploits at work here. This is all pro. And that is awesome.

This guy is such a boss, eh throws cubes and doesn't afraid of cubes. I love the jazz song, too. I wonder if the makers of Portal and Portal 2 can do things like this.

Apparently they were anticipated as there is actual reaction from GlaDOS to where someone might break a puzzle. In her bitingly way, even.

 

[Frosted89]

Wow that guy is good, really good. Now I'm thinking about playing Portal 2 and trying out the puzzles like that, and then cry myself to sleep for not being able to pull it off. Seriously though my reaction to the last puzzle wasn't too dissimilar to this...

Spoiler

 

[BehattedWanderer]

I think my reaction each time he did that was "Wow. No fucken way." I am astounded. Dropping the cube then jumping off of it? You can do that?? Hell, I only just figured out reportaling. Props, man. You're my Portal breaking hero.

 

[matthudson]

Anyone know if the cube throwing is possible in the PC version? I've tried a few times with the sensitivity all the way up, but that doesn't seem to work.

...That light bridge one took me like 12 tries because I kept trying to raise the light bridge by incriments by shooting a portal about an inch over the old one...:'(

 

[Epic Fail 1977]

I think I want to have a sex change so that I can have this guy's babies.
