So, as this game is releasing in 15 mins according to GLaDOS@home.. who's got it preordered?

My guess is that this is going to be a serious contender for GOTY on any platform...

Also for anyone wanting a bit more backstory etc etc, Valve have released a really cool comic here on the official site: Official Portal 2 Website

Hurry up 10 minutes!! :)

There's stuff in the game code already for DLC maps. Good option is that they release a few free and a map making tool (though supposedly you can shoehorn the art assets into the map maker of some other source game and that it only crashes occasionally. bodge job though). Bad option would be of course paid maps... But at least i'm pretty sure that we're going to get something.

yeah i'm playin on the 360.. so no steam hack for me.. highly doubt there will be some free maps.. they seem to be milking as much money as they can in games atm.. but either way.. as long as its worth it.. (not like COD map pack rip off)

For those interested. A comparison of various screenshots between the three platforms. Obviously PC smashes the consoles but still good to check out.

Something that does shit me though is how they use component connection for the ps3 screens thus not enabling superwhite and wide colour spectrum. That is actually because of HDCP - prevents HDMI capture.

Hover over the selected platform for a couple of seconds to load it.

    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
    • Yes, a plan for non-action is always my first sort of plan! I'm happy to see what falls out of invision's update. I had been having some thoughts on what to do with this the other day and they all seem to have fled my memory, after various solar panel induced traumas, squeaking suspension sphericals, etc etc, over the last little bit. I'll try and recall what I had in mind and make sure that I put it into print in some form before the Alzheimer's strikes again.
    • The ability to have both a 5500 stall for launching, and a regular lockup for every other scenario is pretty sweet. Does it actually work well like that though in the real world? Would it hold up to track use and otherwise you'd never know you had a stall converter in it? If so, that's awesome
    • The thing is, once the content has been tagged we can chop and change the end result as much as we want. Its identifying the content in the first place that needs to be done regardless of the final outcome.
    • Sorry @GTSBoy I thought I'd replied here. There's a new BIG version of invision coming out soon, it might be worth waiting until that happens as it contains a lot of improved functionality for tags. My suggestion would be to add a top level page (not thread) with some info on it and then link to sub pages for various topics. We could even just start really simple with 2 or 3 pages underneath it. Those pages could just have a view (like a pre configured search result) of the tags we choose to put on it. We could have some background or an intro on each of these pages. My only issue is that while admins and mods can update the existing content to contain the tags we want, new posts can have whatever tags the author wants. That said, the reason our tags are so messy is because of that, so maybe we restrict tagging to admins/mods in edits.
