Portal is coming to Xbox LIVE Arcade next week for 1200 points.
Pretty pricey, since the Orange Box is just 35 euros....
Guess it's alright... But I got the orange box already.
Orange Box is much better value, and who the hell hasn't got that already by now?
too expensive.
1200 points is allot.... but it's a truly great game, so it's kinda worth it. But still, it's allot of points.. Could've been 800, like most other games :)
But......when's Street Fighter HD coming out..?
That's pric-E...is there any difference to this and the one that comes with orange box? can't orange box get a discounts or some dlc for whats different? it be nice!
curious, what happened to the last 2 weeks of top ten xbox live activity?
The 14 new puzzles might be worth it.
Is this the one that was announced at E3 '08, or just a port of the one from the Orange Box?
The difference is that this version comes with 14 new puzzles which, considering how much I played the original set, is well worth the 1200.
From Xbox.com:
Portal™: Still Alive features the full award-winning Portal single player game from Valve, plus a new challenge mode. Designed to change the way you approach, manipulate, and surmise the possibilities in any given environment, Portal has earned over 70 industry honors for its innovative gameplay, with more than 30 "Game of the Year" awards.
Break the laws of physics using "portal" technology to solve puzzles and survive in this darkly comic story weaving adventure with brain-bending puzzles.
* Innovative gameplay: Experience the first first-person puzzle-action-adventure game with hours of single player gaming.
* Extras: The game includes fourteen brand new bonus puzzles to challenge even the most skilled test subjects. And, get a glimpse into the making of Portal: Still Alive with commentary from the developers.
Both, MadPanzerguy, though I wouldn't call this a "port" with that many new challenges.
It's the same game that's included in The Orange Box.
They might patch the version in the Orange Box to include the new features as the Arcade version, but its unknown at this point.
1200 points? your having a giggle right. You can find places selling the Orange Box for £10 now, brand new
What a total 100% rip-off.
Who wants to pay $15 for a game you already own with the "bonus" of 14 maps that PC users got for free?
Way to make Xbox 360 owners of the Orange Box feel like chumps.
Nothing to see here, kids. Just more of Microsoft's "content on a console should cost more but we don't have a real reason why" bullspit strategy.
I think 1200 MP is fair, its better then 1600 MP
I think a lot of games on the XBLA are ripoffs, but this is not one of them. Consider the graphics, replayability, and the fact that there's 14 new missions. Seems worth 1200 points to me
yeah way to release this next week when, oh I don't know... Fable II and Farcry 2 both release next week.
Dear Mr.Herb i followed your link to the portal page from your blog site and this is what i was greeted with img222.imageshack.us/my.php
now why the hell is there 2 nude women making oral sex gestures on this page with a link to adult sex finder?? i am very offended by this as a long time listener and an even longer time xbox live member i am very upset about this and would like a response. i have also emailed this to you
Seems more like PORTAL: Game of the Year Edition.
It would be nice if they released the 14 levels as an add-on pack for The Orange Box.
ow i gotta get this loved the first portal on orang box :)
I'm gettin' jack of these 1200 point games.
Portal on the Orange Box was good, but $15 is a bit steep, 800 points would've sold it for me.
Major - anyone able to have a look at this thread forums.xbox.com/.../ShowPost.aspx and get the problems with the Fable 2 web games fix.
Alot of people (like myself) who cant redeem their prizes (the above link is just one thread on a number of forums talking about it)
