Valve was at the recent gamescom event demoing Portal 2 for everyone and now you can check out a trailer for the all new faith plate puzzle.
Portal 2 has such high expectations put onto it after the original game was so amazing that almost has to be a let down. Those worries are wiped away every time Valve releases new gameplay footage from Portal 2. The new trailer highlights the new faith plate puzzle that has been added to the game. As you can see from the trailer, it will play a huge part in the game's puzzles and will add tons of new options for us to figure out. The faith plate was originally shown off at this year's E3 but now we get to see more of it.
Portal 2 is going to be released on February 9th for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Mac, and the PC. Check out the new trailer after the break.Read more...
Valve has released the first look at co-op play for the upcoming Portal 2 and announced when we will get our hands on it.
Portal 2 looks to build upon the amazing reception the original game enjoyed. Lucky for us, Valve isn't looking to just throw a few new puzzles and slap a number 2 on the box. They are looking to bring a whole new experience with brand new puzzles, weapons, and characters. The big addition that Valve has promised is co-op play. This will not be just a re-hash of the single player game that you run through with a friend, the co-op game is going to be a whole new story and levels. You and a buddy take control of two robots that GLaDOS is trying to make more human in order to pass a test that is needed. The new co-op play was shown on the recent episode of GTTV and looks like a lot of fun. The video is pretty short unfortunately, but it really shows off what kind of puzzles we can probably expect.
Portal 2 is going to be released on February 9th, 2011 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, and the Mac. Check out the first look at Portal 2's co-op action after the break.Read more...
Blizzard's "when it's done" policy is finally getting to that point apparently as they have officially announced Starcraft 2's release date.
Few games carry the same weight when they are announced as Starcraft 2 did. The announcement was so huge it took place in an arena over in Seoul, Korea that held thousands of rabid fans. Since then people have been chomping at the bit to get their hands on the game. A select few of the countless fans got that chance when the private beta was opened up a couple of months back and people have been clamoring to get their hands on the coveted beta keys. The beta was expected to run between 3-5 months which falls right in line with the recent announcement. Blizzard has set a final release date for the highly anticipated sequel and it will be arriving this July. The first of 3 games that will make up the Starcraft 2 trilogy will be hitting store shelves on July 27th. The release will start out with "Wings of Liberty" that focuses on the Terrans. It will then be followed up by "Heart of the Swarm" that will be focused on the Zerg. The final release will be called "Legacy of the Void" and will be based around the Protoss.
Starcraft 2's release date will be on July 27th for the PC and Mac. No release date has been given on the other two releases that will make up the trilogy.
