>You already knew you would be buying Portal 2, but Sony and Valve have made the PlayStation 3 version an impressive value for gamers. Not only do you get the PS3 version with full Steam integration, but you'll get a free copy of the game for the PC and Mac OS X by linking your PlayStation Network and Steam accounts. You'll also be able to chat, and play with, friends and enemies on the PC and Mac versions of the game. Your game saves can be kept in the cloud to be accessed from any system.

>"We made a promise to gamers at E3 that Portal 2 for the PlayStation 3 would be the best console version of the product," said Gabe Newell, cofounder and president of Valve. "Working together with Sony we have identified a set of features we believe are very compelling to gamers. We hope to expand upon the foundation being laid in Portal 2 with more Steam features and functionality in DLC and future content releases."

>Steam on the PS3 sounds easy and powerful. "PS3 gamers will be able to simply drop the Blu-Ray disc in the PS3, link to their Steam account from inside the game, and all their Steam friends (on PC and Mac) will be visible and accessible for chat and game invites," said Josh Weier, project lead on Portal 2 at Valve.

>>	Maggot 01/29/11(Sat)22:25 No. 697 >>695 I feel for you, xbox has been given the shit end of the stick this time, and while I am glad I left all the glitches and exploits, I was never a better player. Also spies aren't easymode in xbox, which was pretty cool.

>>	Anonymous 01/30/11(Sun)13:30 No. 699 >>651 NO. I liked my no updates, 6 map TF2. I don't think my body is ready for hat drama...

>>	Maggot 01/30/11(Sun)14:26 No. 700 Yes, that was part of the charm, but at the same time, being forced to be all scouts against an engie that is skywalking got real old real quick.

>>	Anonymous 01/31/11(Mon)05:05 No. 704 Yeah no it's a pretty sad day when the console version is better than the PC version of an FPS, I envy the box people.

>>	SollyTang 01/31/11(Mon)19:22 No. 709 Finally. I love the PC version, but my PC gets borrowed a lot so I'd like my PS3 to receive the updates. The un-updated game is terribad.

>>	Anonymous 02/14/11(Mon)18:43 No. 809 >>808 I preordered mine a month ago and the wait is killing me. I just want a demo or something.

>>	Anonymous 02/17/11(Thu)21:27 No. 823 Am I the only one who finds the Atlas/P-Body preorder skins at Gamestop really fugly? I would have liked to get my first physical copy of a VALVe game, but I'm just gonna buy it on Steam. Again. I can prolly get the TF2 pin this way, too.

It kinda looks like it was just slapped on and last minute, to me. Still going to get the game, though, just not from GameStop, they're jerks there.

>>824
I preordered it from gamestop mostly because i wanted a hard copy. Also this doesn't look so bad, but the weird things with the 'hats' or whatever the hell they've got on their heads is just stupid.
Also, I'm pretty sure it's just me here, but I'm not fond of the name P-Body. It just doesn't....work for me.

>>	Anonymous 02/20/11(Sun)13:08 No. 832 >>830 Yeah i saw that on there and said "what the fuck?" And yeah i guess T-Body would make a little more sense for her. I just call them Orange and Blue because, well, GLaDOS calls them that and it just sounds better to me i guess.
