awesome, Anyone got a link?

no

it's just an ugly hack where you rip all the SP maps out of the GCF into the portal directory then load them from the console

sry

there are some fun spots in the maps that you can play.. so this is still cool

Just killed the an advisor thing in episode 2. That was quite the veiny throbbing penis that the thing tries to attack you with.

I think people see what they wanna see

Ep2 was way better than 1, I have to say. I didn't like that Strider bit where you save the buildings... May have something to do with me playing on hard and I couldn't let a single building be destroyed...

Looking forward to Ep3, should be a nice change of location compared to the first two. I'll enjoy playing it in 2015.

Quality game

huh? I played on hard and about three buildings got deaded

Yeah, but I'm trying to get the gamer points, adds more stuff to the game and makes it last longer

For example, complete Episode 1 firing one bullet only? Take the knome at the start of Episode 2, and place it in the rocket at the end?

Hard, but fun

k, but TF2 is still shit

I bought the combo yesterday afternoon. Hammered away at Episode 2 for about 4.5 hours and I'm nearing the end I guess, as I just finshed the strider/silo part. It was really immersive for me so far. Played Portal up to the 15th level, I was surprised as it ran a bit slow w/ full graphics on framerate wise, but I still am enjoying it. Haven't gotten to play TF2 yet.

Turn down portal rendering a bit.

ep1 - run around in tunnels full of zombies
ep2 - run around in tunnels full of antlions

great stuff though, and i love the various physics puzzles/stuff

i hate games where all u do is kill bugs...didn't these morons learn from daikatana?...

Yea, and don't forget some striders and hunters. I'm in ep2 where the striders and hunters are attacking the silos, and you have to fire the sticky bomb things at the striders and blow them up while hunters and whatnot are raping you.
I am getting a bit sick of some of the gameplay here - its definitely more varied than Halo, but those strider battles can just be a pain in the ass at times and zombies are just getting annoying, especially the ones that pull the grenades out.

beating Ep 1 with only one bullet? I don't recall the episode having achievements like that. Oh well, I'm gonna go back and replay everything for the 3017348 time anyways, I'll give that a shot.

The Strider + buildings battle kicked my ass. No way I could save even one building.

I still have yet to play Portal. Lot of studying to do this week

Episode 3!

Ep 1 was upgraded with achievement points. After trying 5 times, I got really annoyed on the 'destroy all the striders' level, and used a god mode cheat to pawn the fuckers, it had unfortunate consequences. It destroyed some of my earlier achievements. But that's no problem as I will be replaying the whole game again, carrying a fricking Garden Gnome trough the whole game ...

Here is a Garden Gnome review.

i suspect they put in set-pieces like that in response to a common criticism of HL2 that it was too easy, which to be fair, it was. especially when you figure out the easy peasy ways of dealing with the big antlion guards and also that bit in the prision with the turrets and waves of combine

and yeah, those zombines are fucking annoying

I already put it at zero, helps, but I still have to play on lower settings.

What does zero portal rendering do? I have my set to eight.

how meny portals you can "see" through

so if you make a loop ( one portal infront of another ) and look down, you will see 8 deep...

Just about half way into Ep2 with the gnome... Its hard as hell... Mostly because I had to kill all 333 grubs too. I jut set the gnome down by Alyx and got the rest of the grubs, came back later.

I haven't really done much with portal yet, and TF2 so far is a bit gay... Maybe because its on 360 and not PC...
