Valve can't deny that part of the fanbase is upset or pissed off. Something has changed. In my humble opinion, this is the Episode 3 effect. Frustration is surfacing. Dear Valve, maybe there is the remote possibility that you are not channelling your energies in the right direction. Don't get me...

I'm still not interested. This is so true. People usually say that reviewers are paid by the publishers (see Oblivion/Fallout 3 and all about Bethesda), so what really counts is the users score.

Unfortunately, I'm not interested in co-op.

6-8 hours mean a very short game, this is for sure. I still want to play Portal 2, but I will wait for a price drop. At the moment, the game is too expensive, imo. Also, please, don't call stupid a person not liking a game. Everyone is entitled to his own opinion.

Someone please let me know about the overall length of the SP part of the game. It's a selling point for me.

If that is true, I will surely wait for the next Christmas sale. No way I'm paying so much for such a short game.

What?? Less than 7 hours? That would be a *huge* letdown. All this waiting, and all this hype for a mini game that one can finish in two or three days? Let's hope it's not true.

Wasn't Portal 1 short enough?

Valve time...

I liked the connection with good indie games, as you know if you read my previous posts. Just one thing is bothering me: releasing the game three, two or one day early would have been a nice gesture. But a few hours?? Come on.

If I think an idea is good, that idea stays good even if pirates do their dirty job. Pirated games are everywhere, that's not a big news.

I don't understand the hate for a simple PR stunt. Also, this is for a just cause because, as a small indie company, you could make the best game in the world but never sell like EA or Ubi or Valve or whatever. Indie developers are always in need of visibility because their games are often seen...

By "ridiculous" I was meaning "extremely low".

Exactly. Basically, they are saying: "Are you intested in Portal 2? Well, we advise you to get these nice games for a ridiculous price, and maybe you'll get some kind of bonus on Portal 2, too. Your choice." Nothing more than smart advertising. And targeting indie games shows that Valve cares...

Crappy indie games? Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Best survival-horror game ever. It kicks Alan Wake's ass. Do yourself a favor and get it.

I LOVE Valve for this! The more attention indie games receive, the better. Steam is really becoming the house of independent developers. More money to them!

Yes, the game looks very good. Nice 2d graphics and a true old-school feeling. As for gameplay, I stay by your word. I'll give it a try.

What a crappy song.

I remember someone saying the contrary, but everything is possible. Only time will tell.
