I had my doubts that Portal 2 could be any better than the first.

Ahahahaha, oh man, I could watch the end for about ten minutes in-game. That's so awesome. Remember, you only feel like an asshole because they sound cute.

I wonder how far you could get in a sneak attack in a army base with a portal gun.

Looks like this game might actually live up to the hype of the first.  Not that Portal was bad or anything, it's a solid, well-tested game, but it didn't blow my f-ing mind like it seemed to do for everyone else.

You're right but I don't see how this is blowing anyone's mind either. It looks awesome but not THAT awesome

Personally Portal is in my top 5 games ever made. And im calling it that Portal 2 if it avoids any techincal issues could easily go down as a top ten contender on everyones list and not just mine. I think this might well be the Critics fav game next year. Be nice if it wasnt some stellar shooter or GTA for once. Then Again Batman AA was my fav last year and the Web of reviewers tended to agree.

y'know..it looks fun..and that's a cool concept..but...it looks fucking stupid...the suction is powerful enough to lift the drones from a distance and rip tiles off a wall...but...it has no affect on the player?

Wow, they're coming up with some very interesting ideas for Portal 2. This one wasn't as exciting as the other videos, but still kinda interesting.

Oh the fun you can have with this game, after playing through the first one a couple of times the game then evolved for me on just doing crazy ideas which where much more entertaining.

Since they're working on this for this long, I wonder how long they'll be making it since the first was only two hours. And yeah, it's as amazing as everyone said it was for the reasons they said. But, it was very, very interesting and I hope this gets more into how it intertwines with the Half Life games.

also, you have a gun which shoots portals, if we're playing the "suspension of disbelief" game

Obviously the game isn't meant to be realistic, but I still would have thought the combination of the "pneumatic vent" and the portal gun would have had the same effect on the player as it did the wall and turrets, this would have given this puzzle something else for the player to think about. 
 
Despite that, this game doesn't fail in impressing.

The first kind of vent that seems useful for something.

I wasn't sure before seeing these clips how Valve could keep Portal interesting for a full-length game.  Now I know...I'm excited.
