Portal 2

[Skyrider]

Released today. Anyone played it yet?

 

[fuzzy]

Yeah, 20 minutes.
The controls are a little strange compared to the rather direct controls in Half-Life 2.

Played 2 hours thus far. I am really digging the game, but I'd have to agree with Fuzzy, I don't like the floatyness of the ingame movement.

All my friends.

And over 70,000 people on Steam.

That seems extremely low.

 

[Mkilbride]

That's on PC. It's good for PC, and that's just for now.

I know it's only for PC. It seems pretty low, I'd have thought it'd be higher.

70,000 on a surprise release, at like 2 AM EST?

I'd say good.

Ze Cores, zey do nothing

 

[fuzzy]

Why would they?
It's a hard disk thing.

Awh, I always figured decryption would be mostly huge strings of data being loaded into the ram, being processed by the cores, were the unlock sequence take place. or something silly like that
but the drives finished, time to see the intro and get ready for work!

And did you think the decyption was beamed to you from the internetz? The game might unlock faster on a SATA 6GB/sec SSD for all 15 people that have one right now. Untill then your cores are bored ;-)
