Am I the only one who doesn't love Portal by the way? I guess it's a taste thing.

 

No, it's OK, but a little on the dull side, and that computer voice gets right on my tits.

 

BLOODY ROYAL MAIL it was sent off on Wednesday by FIRST CLASS and it's been three days since, I've received something off gameplay.com the day after ordering fine last week, I have to send that back because I've changed my mind but I dread to think it'll get lost on the way back.

 

Just get proof of postage when you post it back, then you aren't liable.

Ah, I'll check it out when it actually arrives which it still hasn't. You better be right :p

Maybe they added HDR or something.

 

P.S.

there's that big a back log...post is fucked...it will take 2 weeks to sort out apparently...doesnt mean it will take 2 weeks for your stuff to turn up just for normal service to be preserved...

Not only is the lighting better, the textures have been improved in many areas, things like headcrabs, zombies, and the vortugants in HL2 use the models from Episode 2. It's better looking - trust me.

they said on the 1up show a few similar things that back this up..

I'm gonna complete it, but only for the points. I'm on the last puzzle now, but I just can't be arsed with it. What they should have done is impliment portal features in to Episode 2. Portal by itself is OK, but a bit boring like you said.

Because it's true. They've clearly used models from Episode 2, and improved many textures. Have you got a link for that show by the way?

Yup that's what I heard too, I have no idea when it'll arrive now, is the Orange Box too large for a postbox so I have to make sure I'm in to receive it?

 

I don't think Royal Mail are well organised enough to cope with this in the first place.

The only thing wrong so far is the god dambed fucking shitting megabollocks controls for the hovercraft. But at least Im past that bit now..... (ravenholm).....crap....

 

ROVENHOLM IS THE SHITTEST LEVEL OF ANY GAME EVER. After Cortana on halo 3 however. Why is it that good games have crappy bits

I like ravenholm. The level design is good. Slicing zombies with buzzsaw is victory.

Did you find it hard?

 

I was gonna try that on my first play thro... but decided to go back and do it once ive finnished the game.

 

No, I only died once, and that was because I picked up an explosive barrel by accident, and killed myself with it. The hardest part is where those zombies with fast headcrabs come after you through the windows on the ceiling, and right where you wait for the cart which the Father sends to you, because there's nothing to throw at them. Apart from that, pretty easy. One word of advice for that level though, don't hang around, if you can rush past parts, do so. Bear in mind I have played through Ravenholm about 10 times at least, so if you've only played through it once, it may be harder for you to do.
