Portal is so very impressive.

for those who know nothing about it, heres the trailer:

Your only weapon is a gun that fires an entrance and an exit portal - any objects can be passed through the portal including yourself. Just being able to flawlessly pass through an entrance in the floor to an exit on the far wall is just... mind boggling - you really look at the world differently afterwards :P

The humor is very entertaining too, nothing quite like a computer voice offering cake as an incentive to finish the game. Also, Beware a certain test that has to be performed under extreme pessimism.

The game came out with valve's orange box last week. The only annoyance is that it's too short - although in saying that, the advanced maps that get unlocked after completing it are reasonably challenging, im still stuck on the last one :P

All in all, excellent game. I'll give it 4 and a half robot Steven Hawkings







I miss the weighted companion cube :(
