Still loving the Still Alive song

 - November 30th, 2011
It doesn’t really matter how often I hear it the Still Alive song from the original Portal is probably one of my top gaming songs of all time if not the very top. And this rendition is slightly different because it’s being entirely played with the sounds of defunct floppy (stiffy) drives.Yes ... [»]

Is Half-Life 2 Episode 3 finally coming?

 - August 3rd, 2011
Valve has a penchant for creating smash hit video games, even if the tech they use to do so is a little outdated. If there’s one single thing of theirs that fans are clamouring for though, it’s something new in the Half-Life universe. Could the perpetually teased Episode 3 be getting a Gamescom reveal?Voice actress Ellen McLain, the voice behind ... [»]

Watch This Charming Portal Fan Film – ‘Outside Aperture’

 - June 2nd, 2011
What is it about Portal that has made it such a phenomenon? It still amazes me that so much was accomplished by adding such a wonderfully smart but subtle plot to a puzzle game. The cake is a lie, companion cubes, cute but deadly sentry bots... there's definitely something special. Special enough that fans go out of their way to make amazing short ... [»]

Do you love Portal 2? Of course you do; it’s a surprising sequel in that it’s actually managed, improbably,  to exceed the lofty heights  - in terms of gameplay, charm and sheer inventiveness - of Valve’s portal-based first-person puzzler. Expect it to get even better; Valve has now released the game’s authoring tools (as a beta) to PC players of the game.The tools, ... [»]

Check out a Lego version of GLaDOS (Portal 2)

No this isn’t a licensed Lego version of the Valve puzzler but rather a massive fan who spent countless hours perfectly recreating our favourite bad girl, GLaDOS, in Lego. Apparently the eye should never have been orange but Catsy Smoking
Real Life Portal Gun… with lights and sounds and everything

Kids choir sing “Still Alive”

 - March 30th, 2010
Portal is remembered for two things, it’s incredible physics puzzles and that song at the end. That song is titled “Still Alive” and here it is being sung, really really well, by a kids choir group. Granted the words are possibly inappropriate for young children to be singing but since the tune is so peaceful I am not sure most of the parents even realised this. You Really Care
