Does Still Alive need the Portal game to work?

No.

Why would they even do that?

The added Co-Op is a little on the short side, but that doesn't mean it is easy necessarily.

^ #2 is waaay more epic.

Anyways, my sister and I pounded through the DLC in an evening. Wasn't overly impressed with the story and the dialogue/writing wasn't really up to par with the rest of the game IMO. The puzzles were a lot of fun, however. They were a lot more timing-based than the ones that shipped with the game. I'd give it a B.

I've seen a preowned Portal 2 for £20 in Game, but I'm wondering if I should get the original Portal first, just so I understand what's going on. Trouble is, I've only seen Portal as part of The Orange Box with the other four games, none of which I want.

No, you DO want the other games. If you haven't played through the HL2 series, the Orange Box is a must get. All of the HL2 games are far better than Portal 1.

I did them in reverse order.
They were both incredible.

Portal 1 is hilarious.
Portal 2 is awesome/better.

I have 3 portals for 360.

Portal
Portal:Still Alive
Portal 2

They're both epic.

Second that, im in chapter 2 now...

Its a lot more eerie then the first.. but I like it for that reason..

Wandering through the old places from Portal 1 all ran down was awesome.. I dont know why but I always like when games revisit area after a lot of time has passed (even though I saw it a few hours before in portal 1 :P)

Shame test room 19's lightbox changed and no longer displayed cake D:

Only like the first few chapters are like that.
Exploring the older sections of the lab is cool.
But don't worry, you eventually get back.

IMO, the hardest chapter.

Yay! JB has another distraction. (Maybe he'll put GlaDOS in Backlash?)

JoeBlo · « **Reply #193 on:** October 15, 2011, 10:51:47 AM »

The only thing Portal 2 is holding up is my completion of Assassins Creed.. which is holding up completion of AC2.. which is holding up completion of Motorstorm.. which is holding up completion of PR.. which is holding up completion of Apocalypse.. which is... you get the picture..

Backlash is actually planned to have the first official beta done this weekend..Cant make promises but thats what is planned.. then I can pull it apart and make a public tech demo out of it..

Ditto.
The somewhat-post-apoc design of the earlier lab sections were so awesome.
Though personally, my favorite section is the old lab area.

On the GLaDOS part of Still Alive.

MUST GET PORTAL 2 AFTERWARDS

The 2 old Apeture labs are awesome too.. I wasnt expecting piles of brightly coloured goo in a ran down old lab with piles of keep out signs

Joe, you and I should do Co-Op later.
(Ive beaten it all, of course)

JoeBlo · « **Reply #198 on:** October 16, 2011, 01:01:04 AM »

Sure.. once I finish up the single player..

How hard is it to "Direct traffic" or do I need a headset? :P

Edit: Sucks to be an Xbox user.. no cross platform Multiplayer is there?

DP all done with Single Player
