About two years ago, I heard about the Portal game series from a friend so I purchased Portal: Still Alive. I enjoyed the game a lot and played it over and over. I was excited when I recently discovered that there was a Portal 2. The first difference between the two games I noticed was the graphics. They were incredible! Normally an Xbox 360 game has poor graphics but this was different. It also had an insanely well planed story even compared to the first Portal. All around, the game is a work of art and will be enjoyed by anyone fortunate enough to play this game. Oh, and to anyone who reads this and is wondering, the game can be played on Xbox One.

Problem solving game that forces you to think outside the box, so to speak. I have enjoyed every moment so far, sans a short period of motion sickness because I was playing on a large screen and seated to closely... the first person view is very tight. Single and Multi Player are similar in design, so it's easily enjoyed by one or two. It challenged my thought processes to solve the problems for advancing through the game, and I appreciate that there is enough open game space to force you to work for the goals, i.e., the riddles are not just given away. Definitely enjoying it so far.

This is a really interesting game. One of the few nonviolent titles available. It takes a lot of thinking to solve the puzzles and the game adds narration that keeps it fun! I highly recommend this title for those parents that want their children to avoid all the blood and guts first person shooters out there. This will even help you to think logically when away from the game! This is a lot better than the first portal, IMO.

Arguably my favorite video game of all time, Portal 2 offers a hilarious, witty, and oddly poignant single-player campaign. An incredibly balanced experience that is both challenging and rewarding, especially in the cooperative campaign. Great attention to detail, great characters, and great music. As someone who doesn't normally play puzzle games, all the other elements of Portal are enough to draw in any kind of gamer.

I would actually give it more of a 4.5 out of 5 stars. I admit that I never played the first Portal, but after reading other reviews it was clear that you didn't need to in order to play Portal 2. And they were right - there really isn't a story line, at least not one you really need to know. The game is more about solving the puzzles. I bought this game as a gift. I had heard so many positive reviews that I decided my friend would like it, especially since he likes problem solving. He opened the gift wrapping and started playing the game immediately. He played the two player version with one of his buddies. I didn't play myself, but watched the whole time. From what I saw and from the reactions of my friends I came to this conclusion: The graphics on the game are nothing to brag about. They were fair. However, the graphics were not what I bought the game for so it didn't bother me one bit, nor did it bother my friends. The puzzles on the other hand were pretty unique and fun. My friends speed through most of them without too much trouble. There were a few levels that took some creativity to solve, and those stumped them a bit. However, overall I didn't think the difficulty was high - just average. Enough to make you think, but not enough to make you frustrated. (This is based on the 2 player puzzles. I never saw the single player puzzles, which are different and most likely more difficult.) As for the characters themselves (the robots) they were hilarious, especially on 2 player. You can actually mess around and make funny gestures to each other, change the portals as the other is walking through, or simple just kill each other. Of course you don't want to fool around too much, but it made us laugh on several occasions. To sum it up this is a great and simple game. I would recommend it to anyone. The only downfall may be that it is a simple game. If you are looking for something complex, with many tasks or accomplishment, that will take a long time to complete - this is not the game for you. There are no accomplishments besides solving the levels/puzzles. That is right - no coins to collect, no lives, no leveling up, no time limits, no secrete items or areas… Just straight and simple. And for what it is, a puzzle game, Portal 2 is an excellent choice.Read full review
This is one of my favorite games! I decided to sell my original copy, like an idiot, a few years back. Glad to have the game back once more, in very good condition too!

Ready for more portal mischief? Good! Because Valve has released Portal 2! You're back in Black Mesa's Testing ground of craziness for another fun and ridiculous adventure. You awake in a chamber, like the first one, but things quickly go down hill from there. Portal 2 is filled with colorful array of characters. The conversations throughout the game are funny and keep you compelled to figure out more behind what really happened in this deserted place of science. The single player campaign took me roughly about 7 1/2 hours to get through, but it was fun and unlike any other puzzle game I had played before. Portals, light bridges, switches, buttons, boxes, turrets, gels, and more! They really put alot of thought into this game :P The Co-Op campaign only took me and my friend, Kyle, about 5 1/2 hours to beat, but we were 2 smart cookies. The Co-Op combines elements from the single player storyline by actually have a story of its own. You play as 2 robots on an adventure to do what robots do best: Follow orders. From who you ask? Can't give that away :P I loved the single player storyline, but I just can't believe how much more fun Co-Op makes this game! Sure, it seems a little short and we probably could have beaten it quicker if we stopped killing each other :P, but it was worth the laughs! There are some rather annoying loading times during the Co-Op and I found that at times, the puzzles were either a complete miss or way too easy. You either got them or you didn't, but in the end, Valve makes a pretty decently challenging game for people new to puzzles as well as people familiar with puzzle elements. For a game with a combined retail value of $45 (How much I payed for it), I'd say it was definately worth it.Read full review

The story is interesting with several new twists and turns. Although Portal 2 uses the same engine as the original, the graphics have been noticeably boosted. One of the most notable upgrades is the vastness of the world. Get ready to fling Chell high and far to complete each level. After playing the first Portal, this one is a little easy, but a great game none-the-less. The single player is short, but it is made up by a decent set of co-op puzzles. It took me about 6 hours to beat the single player campaign and another 5 for the co-op. My two biggest disappointments: 1. No cake 2. The ending song isn't as good
