    Hell yeah I'm really hyped for this game. It looks awesome. I'm particularly looking forward to listening to the new song that Jonathan Coulton has penned.

    I'm looking forward to playing the splitscreen co-op too. Shame we haven't seen any footage of that mode in action, I sure hope the screens are split 50/50 and none of that staggered crap.

    They showed it to us at PAX back in September. Looks good and from what I can remember the split wasn't staggered.

    e - I could be remembering this all wrong. :confused:

    I've got this on my rent list, will be too busy with Mortal Kombat, but I'll squeeze some time in for this baby.

    Did a quick play through of the original just the other day. Game still holds up, I did not remember the walking being so slow though. Has there been any info on how long the single player game is supposed to be?

    I was thinking about replaying the first game. I still have to get the achievement for destroying all the security cameras.

    Valve's said the co-op will be at least twice as long as the first game, and Portal 2's single-player will be at least twice as long as it's co-op. Sounds like a reasonable amount of content, if accurate.

    Could've probably worded that a bit more clearly...

    Portal 2's co-op will be twice the length of Portal 1's single-player.

    And Portal 2's single-player will be four times as long as Portal 1's single-player.

    Am hyped for this, but didn't realise this was out that soon lol. Thought it would be like June or July.

    Anyway, don't think I'll be getting this day 1, maybe wait till it gets cheaper.

    Pre-ordered this. Only £32.71 on amazon. Doubt it'll come on release though, but I'm not that fussed if it doesn't.

    wish they released the first Portal in the PSN Store, would be great to play through it again before the sequel lands.

    I'm loving the fact that I know next to nothing about this game other than that it exists and it's coming out very soon. I've managed to avoid reading, seeing or hearing pretty much anything. Can't wait to play it though.

    I like how they put the portal gun on the stretcher and sweep the broken body into a pit of fire. :D
