    Portal

    Game » consists of 8 releases. Released Oct 10, 2007

    A first-person puzzle game developed by Valve and graduates of DigiPen, Portal forces a human test subject to run a gauntlet of grueling spatial experiments administered by a malfunctioning, psychotic artificial intelligence named GLaDOS.

    Does anyone not have this game yet?

    I mean really, with all the things portal has come with, and all the hype surrounding the game, is there anyone who doesn't have it yet? 
     
    If so, it's on sale for two dollar on steam.

     

    Anyone considering it now that it cost about the same amount as a slightly overpriced chocolate bar? Anyone considering buying it again?

    Why would I buy it again? I mean, it's a neat game and all, but the challenge it offers is purely mental, so there's zero point to playing it through more than once.

    I wouldn't buy it again. 

    I do have a few friends that doesn't have this game, ones that buy nothing but sony/360 exclusives and have no money for anything else.

    It was free for a few days back when Steam was released for Mac, so I think anyone who wants it has it by now. They keep putting it on sale because they want as many people to play it as possible, so more people will be interested in buying the sequel when it's released.
     
    EDIT: No, I wouldn't buy it again, but I did grab it for my secondary account when it was free. ;)

    Portal was free about a month ago.............if you didn't make a bunch of dummy Steam accounts to attach Portal, shame on you!

    Anyone who doesn't have it is an idiot, because it was free a few weeks ago.

    I think I own three different versions of this game: Steam, Orange Box on 360, and Portal: Still Alive on XBLA.

    I have never owned it because first-person games give me motion sickness. I would buy it though otherwise.

    I played through it so many times but didn't own a copy until they released it for free. Still looking forward to playing it for the developer's commentary

    I guess statistically there must be some people. Personally I have it for PC, as part of The Orange Box on 360 and I have Portal: Still Alive from XBLA.

    One of my favorite games ever.  Own it on Xbox 360 and then when steam gave it away for free I grabbed another copy from them....  You can never have to many Portals!

    It was free on Steam a while back. No need to buy it now. I already had it on PS3 and have it on 360 though. But, yeahhhhhh. It was free.

    Actually I don't own it or anything. I've played like a level or 2 on my friend's computer back when it came out originally, but I haven't owned a PC capable of any kind of gaming for many, many years now. I never bothered buying it on my 360 either.

    I've had it for the 360 since The Orange Box came out, and I've loved it ever since. When it was free on Steam, I created an account and got it for the PC.
