Aperture Science has an opening

Dec 17, 2007

Dec 17, 2007 [Editor's Note: Some of you may notice that our PS3 and 360 reviews of this game are the same, but the PS3 version has scored lower. This is not a typo. The two versions have identical content and both are fantastic. However, the PS3 version sometimes moves at a chuggy, stuttery pace, and has notably longer loading times. These faults have earned it a lower score.] You're probably here to read about Portal, Valve's first-person puzzle game about opening rifts in space to cross ...

Youve got a gun that opens rifts in any wall you shoot it at, and once youve opened two, you can walk ... » Read Full Portal preview

Mar 9, 2007

Even though its built with the Half-Life 2 engine, you won't launch rockets at waves of enemies or find any online death matches in Portal. Although it certainly looks like a first-person shooter and controls like one, Portal is best described as a first-person puzzler. But juicy details regarding this upcoming mystery wrapped in an enigma have been far and few. Luckily, we got to wrap our brains around a level from a demo of the game. While it may not be the "groundbreaking action game that ... » Read Full Portal preview
