 I HATE STEAM August 13, 2008
3 out of 8 found this review helpful
YOU CAN'T INSTALL PORTAL UNLESS YOU INSTALL STEAM. UNLESS YOU WANT TO SPEND 3 HOURS WITH STEAM SUPPORT YOU BETTER HAVE AN INTERNET CONNECTION AND REMEMBER YOUR PASSWORD AND BE WILLING TO SUBMIT YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS SO YOU CAN START GETTING ALL OF THEIR JUNK MAIL. DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT. LOST $20.
 A good game overall... August 12, 2008

...The antagonist is funny, the protagonist is quiet, and it's filled with puzzles that confuse the mind and infiltrate the body. Overall, as I said, it's a good game.

I bought this game to spend my offtime enjoying. Unfortunately, where I am currently situated has no internet and I haven't yet been able to play. Looks like I'll have to wait until I get back home to give it a shot. Didn't rate good or bad, due to inability to play, but I have been told it's very fun and look forward to finding that out for myself.
 Not worth 20 bucks, get the Orange box instead. July 29, 2008

I got this game for 20 bucks thinking it was cheap. I finished it within two or three sessions of gaming.
I didn't get my fill. This is the equivalent to a free game Demo.
I feel ripped off. Hey Valve, i'm done with this game, Can i trade it back for episode two instead?
Oh wait, you don't sell it on the store shelves do you? I have to download it through Steam? Valve forces you to join their lame Steam cult. Installing Portal though Steam takes a hell alot longer than actually finishing it.
Ohhh okay, you guys are smart, really know how to rip someone off! I feel like cattled sheep here. I should have gotten the Orange Box instead. I'd waste my money either way. But at least i'd feel a little less stupid.
Don't get me wrong, i found the game quite innovative and it was fun while it lasted, hence the 4 stars fun factor. Valve wants your money. The moment this game got bloated with Hype, they sell it as a standalone game on store shelves, but they don't do the same to Episode Two?
B*stards.
Good game, horrendous package. July 6, 2008

Portal is a good puzzle game. I like the concept of the wormhole. It is fun. It took me a couple of days to complete it, and then I did the whole thing in two hours non-stop.
I hated Steam. Before installing Portal, you have to install Steam, then download Portal and then install it, and then activate. It took me close to two hours to get it running.
I loved the game, hated the way it gets installed.
