It's 2010 and I'm witnessing Quake with portals meets Star Wars planet scouts hovering and getting crates falling through portals to smash them?

Then I get to see an impersonal board game view of Fantasy meets characters drawn like Bladerunner meets TSR and I'm supposed to be enthralled?

Seriously?

Do you really think you sound clever here? Have you even played Portal, one of the finest first-person games of the last 10 years?
 
wait, what about Half Life 2 ? i wanted to play it tomorrow!!!1 noes

Me too... but to be honest, would it sell? Surely Valve will be prioritising new games, rather than those that are several years old? I hope I'm wrong, and also hope my pessimism about Fallout 3 being ported is also misplaced.
 
Uuuuuuuug, Portal... motion sickness

Wow, Portal gives me motion sickness like no game ever has and I'm typically very resistant to feeling motion sickness when playing first person POV games. I think it's all the dropping through floors and 90 degree orientation changes. Just a few fast segments of that seems to do me in.

That it's a very engaging game makes it that much more nausea inducing. What I mean is that I don't realize I'm starting to feel sick until it's almost too late. I came really really close to hurling all over my keyboard.

It's a good thing it only takes a few hours to finish. I had thoughts about going back to try to get all the secret accomplishments a second time around, but thought better after one of the advanced maps got me sick in only 15 minutes.

I couldn't agree more. By the way, have you seen the new Scorsese movie? It's like 2010 and it takes place in 1954, and with no special effect to speak of. WTF? :D
