Holiday season, eh?

Better be on consoles, too.
Why wouldn't they make it for console? Sure, their PC-fans are many but they need the extra help from the mainstream audience too.

When you walk into that swamp, you'll never go back.

OT: Portal 2 eh? Why not.

i find it so amusing that when EA try their best to market a game we all just sit back and think "what a bunch of d!ckh3ads", whereas valve starts dropping clues and the internet is on fire with us all desperatly trying to find new clues and solve their evil genius style puzzles.

maybe EA should hire the guys at valve to start marketing their games.... yeah valve are way too clever to ever do that.

but it is amazing how much effort valve are putting into just HINTING a game. imagine what the final product will be......

D R A T M A N N H 0 N E E...

I'm not the only one to notice Ratman, the character who spread that dreaded, 'The Cake is a Lie' meme.
And H0NEE sounds like the name of an A.I. As previously stated, perhaps a co-op game featuring the Ratman and a partner A.I. H0NEE.
Or, an enemy AI named H0NEE.

The AI that drags Chell off at the end of the new Portal ending sounds male. Perhaps H0NEE is that AI's "wife"?

Am i the only one who thought portal was rather meh and this anouncement of a sequel to me is just ...meh too. I think it just reminds me more that hl2 ep 3 is still a long way away. Damn you valve for teasing me.

See, I think Chell will be in the two-player, and the Rat Man is going to be the main character. (Or, as I would love, I could be wrong and it's the other way 'round, Ratty comes in only in two player... it's supposed to have a different story, maybe in getting the both of you out?) The 'H0NEE' thing... did anyone else think of the old saying 'you catch more flies with honey'?

Cave Johnson is supposed to be everything GLaDOS isn't- he's friendly, encouraging, likes to put subjects at ease, and (as was mentioned in the BBS or whatever), tried beekeeping in his office and won first place. It could refer to the idea that Cave will be your partner for most of the game, but he's supposed to lose his humanity as time goes on.

WMG. -shrug-

I guess that means the serie is "still alive".
You forgot to put on your sunglasses mid-sentence.


Happy now? :D
Uuum, why is he putting sunglasses, OVER his sunglasses? Has he just had THAT little sleep? Oh, and it should be: "I guess the series is....." *puts on glasses* "...still alive." "YEEEAAAAAH!"


*EDIT* Hey? Wasn't portal 2 going to be a prequel?
By the way you guys know that they announced portal 2 WAAAAAAAAAY back in an interview at some point right?

For the people that havent found out yet, using the first username and password gave a BASIC program, and the second username and password (drattmann/h0nee) outputted what you should input into the program.
Basically, portal 2 has co-op http://techplethora.com/COOP.jpg (thats the output)

My life now has a something to look forward to and get on release date. I'll probably preorder this.

I hope this isn't another "trying to suck money from us" game sequel. But this is Valve.

Drat man Honey!

I think I cracked the code! Just get rid of the extra N and replace 0 with o. Then make the 2 E's into a Y.
it either means A drat man made honey, or DRAT MAN! HONEY! PORTAL 2 IS GONNA SUCK!(not likely.

OT: *air guitar* YES! PORTAL PORTAL PORTAL!

Maybe one mans the Device while the other chucks grenades or something? Turrets? For some reason I find it hard to imagine both characters actually using their own Device...

So everyone has already said stuff about the Ratman from the letters. But the first thing I saw was Dr. Attmann. A researcher that possibly survived the deadly neurotoxin?

H0NEE being an AI sounds pretty plausible too.

One person shoots one portal, the other person shoots the other.
Obviously.

It's an anagram for "End Month Arena." I hope this means it will be released April 1st because that would be the best April Fools EVER.
