Title: I am now a Portal god.
Post by: Phoenix on 2007-12-30, 11:26
I've finally played Portal, and I must say it's one of the most fun and interesting games I've seen in a long time.  I want to see more games like this.  I love puzzles!  I've also completed all the achievements in Portal.  I managed to do this in one day's time.  I normally don't brag, but after getting Gold level on all the Challenge maps... well, I think I've earned it.  8)

I won't spoil anything.  I only say that the Challenge maps are challenging, and that you unlock the Challenge and Advanced maps by playing through the main game.  I think you will like the game very much, especially if you like to solve problems in an unusual manner and can think in terms of... well you'll see.  :slippy_love:

I know I like it - I've played the stand-alone game to the end. Just once, and only to, afterwards, download the song and play it ten times in a row. :]
I'll have to take another look at it, but I can't remember seeing any unlocked stuff in my version..

Look on the "Bonus Maps" menu option, if it's there.  There should be Advanced Maps and Challenge Maps.

God that end song... I've probably heard it over a hundred times by now... anyway I have very little doubt there will be a sequel, the game is just pure unadulterated awesome in game format...

I'm on my third run through the game and that computer still cracks me up. The song was just the icing on the cake (pun intended) :doom_love:
