Portal Madness! - Click!
Rarely am I ever excited about videogames but Portal is on my Christmas wish list. Portal is already out for the XBox360 (which you will be very sorry if you get one considering the recent reports of the defectiveness of the system which has caused Microsoft to disconinue its Warrenty for new 360 systems. That's Microsoft for you), but for the people who decided to trade in their rent money for an 80 GB PS3 (as stated earier, anything less than that has compatability issues. That's Sony for you.) the Orange Box game bundle was released this week. Since this is Five games in the same box, $60 seems like a fair price. This has sparked my interest in checking out the orignal Half-Life. (Keep in mind, I rarely play video games unless it is omething really good.)Portal is EVERYWHERE it is that popular. It is like what Pokemon was to little kids, of course most of those Pikachu fans have since moved on to bigger better things.
There is even a Flash game based on Portal which is so good, I'd like to play the real deal this time around.
Here is something to think about, even though Portal is fictional, would the physics be possible? By that I don't mean the quantum physics of making a portal but the part where you jump in the portal and fly out using momentum. I bet a few science teachers would really get kids involved into physics if they put that sort question on the exam.
