I don't know how many of you have seen this stuff, but it's awesome!
Valve announced the Half-Life 2 collection for the 360 and PS3. Basically; it's Half-Life 2, Half-Life Episodes 1&2, Team Fortress 2 (Insanity), and Portal.
Portal looks like the most insane game I've ever seen. It's based off a project by some Digipen students. Valve decided to throw Source behind it and polish it up. You can download the original project called Narbacular Drop on a couple sites. Just search for it on Google and you'll find it. It looks rough, but it plays amazingly.
Go here (http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/halflife2episode2/index.html?q=portal) to find the Portal trailer. Then check out Narbacular Drop, or vice-versa, whatever. It's totally awesome.
Basically it's a game revolving around creating portals in various places to solve puzzles. For instance, in one part of Narbacular Drop you have to put a portal in the ceiling above a switch, then put a portal under a box. The box falls through the portal and comes out of the ceiling onto the switch, which in turn opens a door.
I'm extremely excited for the Half-Life 2 Collection. Not even for Half-Life 2, but for Team Fortress 2, and more importantly, Portal.
