I want to play that! I've got to get rich and obnoxious so I can have a tv show where I do stupid things like that.

When the trailer for portal first came out about a year ago, I was super excited about it, but I had actually given up on it ever really coming out. Glad to see that not only its out, but that someone has beaten it. Its actually based upon a game called narbacular drop, and is very similar in approach, only that its a much shorter game. The guys who made that game are the ones who made portal. The link above is a free, downloadable, installable exe that can play on any machines, so you ought to play around with it. It will wet your lips for portal.

Thanks for the spoiler, by the way :D

Oh, by the way, best game ending in my mind is the original metroid, but then again, Ima mega metroid fan.

I only finished that using the Jason Bailey code.

I finished it again last year on my pocket PC. No Justin Bailey code either.

I might have to try that again on some lazy afternoon.

I've played narbacular drop, it was a lot of fun too. But playing it on the half-life engine was MUCH more fun. The awesome physics engine made some of the things you could do much more exciting.

However, the community-built maps on Narbacular Drop are much better, so far. Portal was such a short game, and I've been craving some new adventures, but the mapping community can only go so fast! :)

The original metroid was so difficult, I still haven't beaten it without cheating. I've done every other metroid (not the prime series yet, though. Waiting for my Wii for that) even with tons of sequence breaking, but the original metroid -- just can't get it.

Yeah, I have beaten Metroid without cheats, several times when I was a child. The funny thing was that we believed that if we could beat the game quick enough, Samus would be totally nekkid at the end instead of just in a one or two piece (LOL).... Metroid and the original Zelda are on the tops of my list for best games of all time, along with Civilizations and Asteroids from Atari.

Luckily, we have the internet for that kind of thing nowadays. (Rule 34 of the internet: For everything imaginable, there is porn of it.)

The original Zelda was my first addiction. I loved how open it was, I could go in any direction at any time -- and there always seemed to be something new to explore. I never beat it, though. I couldn't find dungeon 7. And I've never quite had the patience to go through it again.

However, it's fun to watch some of the speed runs available. There was one where the guy went all the way to the Ganon without the sword, and then only used the wooden sword to kill him. Or there's this one: http://speeddemosarchive.com/Zelda1.html 33 minutes! Insane!

I was always quite partial to the Ultima series. Too bad they don't make those anymore.

KOTOR was one of the best games I've played. I loved the backstory of the Sith and why they think like they do.
