Yes, play Portal 1 first. The Portal 2 story picks up after the ending. While the story is not essential/required, it makes the cake that much sweeter.

The cake is a lie!

Haha. Honestly glados makes the fact that there isnt anyone to interact with still fun. Damn passive aggressive bitch.

I wanted to hold off buying it so much, to save as much money as I can for my trip next week... But with all the hype, remembering just how good the first one was, and the fact that it only costs $35 in Hong Kong, I got it anyway :o

You get around 6-8 hours for single player and then you have a completely different Co-op game.

I'm in chapter 6 and it's a pretty cool area. I like what they did with the game.

it will change your life. jk. its a really great game that mixes elements of puzzle solving but making it fun while avoiding the tediousness. the humor in the game is pretty great too.

Yeah seems pretty cool. Gotta stop playing NHL11 and try this out today..

I'm assuming portal isnt co-op like porta 2?

Portal/Portal 2 are like 10 star games for 5-6 hours, rather than 5 star games for 20-30 hours. I'll happily pay $35 for that (or even $50 if I had to)

Just finished the single player. Valve did a good job on this one.

Gotta love their sense of humor.

This may be taboo to say.. but this is what I'm doing since I'm going on a few trips this summer and need to save $.

Pirate it and play single player first, then buy later to play some coop.

I considered that, and I have pirated games before when I am not sure if I would like them. I always end up buying them if I do like them, and uninstalling them and deleting if I don't. With Portal 2, I know it would be worth every penny, so I just bought it immediately :o

so fun. co op is awesome when it gets competitive. Glados likes to rub it in when you're the one not solving puzzles.

Just beat single player, the ending is pretty awesome.

Time to find a partner and start the co op.

I think you should play portal 1 prior to portal 2 because it would give you the background of the game's storyline and gaming mechanics.

I thought the 1st one was fun but it was way too short. I beat it in 3-4 hours. However, valve never anticipated that this game would go big.

Downloading portal 2 as we speak!

I've been playing for like 4 hours and I'm almost done single player aswell, and it seems like this game is A LOT more linear than the last one, in portal 1 you could make a portal on pretty much any wall/surface, in this one only certan walls, its like the puzzles are clear cut infront of you. So linear...

But I definitly want to try co-op with someone after I'm done single, hopefully it will be better.

^ I found this game to be way harder than 1. It doesn't get more linear than Portal 1, where you're moving from one room to the next. But I think I get what you're saying, when you aren't in the test chambers there's obviously only one surface where you're suppose to shoot on, and it's usually moving upwards...

No need to buy it for co-op. The pirated version supports co-op, only for pc though.
Honestly i wouldn't waste my money on a game that will only last 10-20 hours. Your going to finish it and MAYBE play it again; after that its just going to collect dust.
Just torrent it, finish single player, finish co-op and now you can fit in and talk about it.

I finished pretty much all single player trophies except that breaking 11 monitors glitched out on me. :( Did a few co-op and its fun too.

PS3 version comes with steam version dlc code (except u have to wait until PSN is back up and running). So if u havent bought this game and thinking about it, get PS3 and use that code on Steam and trade the game in to get some money back. ;)

Great game indeed. I have never play Portal 1 and now I want to find it and try. :)

I bought it last month. I completed it, and the storyline is excellent.
I haven't even tried co-op yet, but I'll do so later.

Definitely worth the money, even though you may only play through it once.
The game is much longer than the first one.
Waayyy longer... it's an actual full game this time.

And the puzzles are a lot more challenging, with lots of new "props."
