Portal 2

  

   I figured that I should start out with a popular video game for my first blog post, and it doesn't get much better than Portal 2. I was a lot more entertained with Portal 2 than I was with the original Portal as it has many more jokes that the first one, almost none of which have to do with the cake. Its nice seeing game companies thinking of new shit rather than just rehashing all of the old shit for once. You start out by being woken up by Wheatley after a 1000 year stay in stasis to find the Enrichment Center in complete ruin. Now you must set out to retrieve your portal gun and escape the Enrichment Center with Wheatley. I enjoyed watching the characters develop in Portal 2, especially the player's character (Chell) and the batshit insane Cave Johnson. GLaDOS, the insane AI, who you killed in the last game by blowing her up with rockets and dropping the individual pieces into an incinerator, seems to have made a full recovery. Instead of killing you though, she decides to simply test you for the rest of your life. How kind.

   Unfortunately, I was unable to test out the co-op mode of the game as of now because my second 360 controller broke. Also I have no friends.

   Please forgive me for the shitiness of this review as I am still learning. Next week I will be reviewing Fallout: New Vegas.
