Well, you could always join the Publisher's club, if it bothers you a considerable deal.gigastar said:As expected of Valve.
Also cant you do something about making those stupid Homefront adverts skippable? Im sure everyone who cares about it has one by now.
Just had a look at the German version.rokkolpo said:I'm pretty sure I heard a sixth extra seconds.
as in 1/6, everyone here seems to be hearing differently though.
Oh well, at least the trailer is AWESOME!

It clearly sais "sechs Sekunden" which means "six seconds".
Portal is pitch black comedy. I would not call a game that threatens to pull all your teeth out and donate your organs before dumping you into a military testing facility where you are shot to pieces before being cooked in a giant oven a "Family" game any more than I'd call a Stanly Kubrick movie a "Family" movie. The mere absence of gore and language and boobies does not a Family game make. Portal is an adult game with very adult themes.Rayne870 said:But it is family friendly and is a puzzle solving game.Harry Mason said:Anyone notice the Genre is marked as "Family/Puzzle?"

That's not a good idea. They'd routinely push people into fiery pits.aeric90 said:Could someone please find the people responsible for the Dead Space 2 campaign, tie them to chairs with their eyelids forced open and make them watch these till their behaviour changes?
It's subtle enough that kids won't really grasp it so it's safe. That said the official "family" genre doesn't really fit as it is a Teen rated game, or will be based on precedent set by portal. Unofficially though there really isn't anything damaging to children, last time I checked teaching them to avoid deadly obstacles and not get shot was a good thing.Harry Mason said:Portal is pitch black comedy.

Little Big Planet is a Family game. Mario is a Family game. Portal is a black comedy.
Lucane said:Edit: It's also nice to finally know ATLAS' and P-Body's names.
Not to be a dick, but we knew that a LOOOOOOONG time ago.Baldr said:No longer Orange and Blue. Now P-Body and Atlas.
I agree. If you look at Valve's commentary for Team Fortress 2, they said that one of the goals of the character design was for it to be clear at a glance who was which class, and I'd say that carried over here.Flauros said:Wow, that is awesome. lol REGARDLESS of how cool the game is, just by itself.
I also like how you can tell which ones Atlas and which ones P-body just by looking at them.
Took the words right out of my mouth. I don't see how anyone could play Portal and say it was a family game.Harry Mason said:Portal is pitch black comedy.
