Goddammit.
It annoys me they couldn't update the 360 version. It would have given me an excuse to play it again.

you seem to be forgetting one thing, its VALVE! have they made anything that isn't awesome?Da_Schwartz said:It can not be as good as the original. Impossible to re-create it. Not out of omfg is da best game evaz. But it was one of those games with an X factor. Don't get to hyped...you will be just as disapointed as bioshock 2. Same situation. I'm getting it though

They updated Episode Two too. Alyx, Barney, and Kleiner could be made out in the new Portal scrambled radio transmissions.baseracer said:
You need several things before you can see the alternate ending:
1. You need to have completed the game at least once, and achieved the achievement 'Heartbreaker'. If you were offline when finishing Portal, you most likely did not get the achievement, so check for that first.
2. Once you get 'Heartbreaker', there will be 26 radios hidden throughout the game. Each radio has a red light that'll turn green when you're at a certain location not too far away from the place you found the radio. You'll then hear a weird sound instead of the usual Still Alive elevator music loop. When you found all 26 radios and their corresponding signal locations (note that you don't have to do this on a single playthrough, once you found a radio and its signal, you'll have achieved it permanently), you'll get the 'Transmission Received'-achievement.
As far as I know there's no way to revert Portal back to the original gameplay, however the fact that you need 'Transmission Received' to see the new ending, you need 'Heartbreaker' to earn 'Transmission Received', and you need to have completed the game at least once for 'Heartbreaker' means that new players will get to see the original game before they play the alternate version with the radios and the new ending. A very wise decision of Valve.

3. Once you get 'Transmission Received', when you defeat GLaDOS and get teleported outside in the resulting explosion and portal malfunction, you'll get the scene in the video in the OP instead of the original fade to black.

You mean where we were forced to assume the protagonist was left a quadriplegic? That was definitely a different way to end it I suppose. I wonder how they'll work it out? Or if they ever actually intend to make an obscure little half-life sequel.[Cold-Shoulder said:
