I'm saying it again: I don't think there is going to be a Portal 2, I'd wager that Valve is making an original IP that revolves around use of the Portal gun, but is a straight up FPS action game - Portal was just a test run for the tech...so I believe!

How exactly is that "gay?"  Does it involve two people of the same sex being attracted to each other, or does it make you joyful?  Don't be so homophobic; if you think something is stupid or frustrating, just describe it as so.

._.
you guys REALLY think the features/capabilites of PS3 are a barrier to making it smaller?
because it's not THAT much of a step up from a modern laptop. Hell, cut off the monitor and everything and you get yourself something that's somewhat affordable.
...
Well, either that or macbooks are even more of a ripoff than I thought.

@RenegadeSaint:  People can say what they want, if you aren't gay I don't a see a reason for you to butt in. There are worse things people can say.

Just because you can do something doesn't mean that you should do it.  Maturity is what separates those who can hold their tongues from those who widely proclaim their ignorance. 

And if people shouldn't "butt in," then why are you criticizing my comment?  Perhaps you should take your own advice.

@RenegadeSaint: If I took my own advice, I'd be in a very bad situation. I jsut stand by the fact that I think anyone should be allowed to use what insults they wish.

I mean, teh point of an insult is to isult people. Using gay, retarded or whatnot fullfils that purpose.

Jeff isn't wrong. There's nothing special about the tired, overdone Zelda brand anymore, even back in 2009. A dude in green who can't talk for some reason (yet shouts too much), and some familiar monster designs -- big deal. Anything I'd want from a generic-fantasy exploration game, other games do better. Dragon's Dogma, Darksiders, Kingdoms of Amalur, Black Desert... The futuristic idea the guys had sounds great, but only cements the fact that the Zelda brand has nothing more to offer.

Vinny's Miyamoto's Rapelay gag was priceless!
