[QUOTE=triFeral;28059893]Hey guys remember the Portal ARG? Good times. :unsmith:[/QUOTE] I agree. Those were the most exciting days I've ever had on my PC.

[QUOTE=triFeral;28061376]What are these skins I'm hearing about?[/QUOTE] If you preorder at Gamestop you get these kind of crappy skins where the Co-Op bots wear yellow construction type stuff. If you preorder at Amazon you get these two epic skins where the bots are colored based on their colors. EDIT: Ninja'd.

Ah whatever. The default ones will be the best, right Steam buyers and late buyers?
[QUOTE=Zedicus Mann;28061544]Ah whatever. The default ones will be the best, right Steam buyers and late buyers?[/QUOTE] I really hope this is going to be like L4D2 where it's only advertised as being exclusive to the store.

Imagine how awesome Valve's would be. [editline]14th February 2011[/editline] I seriously gotta ask though, are the guys at Gamestop blind? These look like shit! [img]http://www.gamestop.com/gs/images/bonus/portal2_bonusLG.jpg[/img] I mean, seriously!

:saddowns: There are just too many awesome games to get this year. I only have $50 to spend, and I want both this and Brink equally. I think I'll get Brink first and Portal 2 later in the year(unless someone gets Portal 2 for me).
[QUOTE=superdinoman;28061397]Amazon [img_thumb]https://images-eu.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/03/videogames/V/images/exclusive_content_skins2.jpg[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] holy shit amazon skins are awesome
[QUOTE=superdinoman;28061397]Amazon [img_thumb]https://images-eu.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/03/videogames/V/images/exclusive_content_skins2.jpg[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] I probably would've ordered from Amazon had I seen this first considering that looks fucking amazing + I would get a boxed copy, but I've already ordered from Steam. But honestly, playing the game itself is all I really need from it especially considering I can play it as soon as it's available. Hnnnng it's like I want the best of 3
Might as well put my free trial of amazon prime to use and get the Amazon version hng I hope they ship it before the game comes out so I get it the same day it's released

[QUOTE=Smooth Jazz;28062102]Portal 2 will be on sale repeatedly for 5 dollars in one year so I think I would wait... 1 painful year.[/QUOTE] Portal 2 isn't just a test like Portal 1 was, Portal 2 is an actual game. So I think it'll be at least 3 years before it's down to $5 sales. Hopefully I'll find someone hosting a contest for Portal 2. :v:
I think I'll pre-order Portal 2 from Amazon this time. I want a physical copy of a Valve game for additional security purposes, plus those Amazon skins and $5 off my next anything? That's a good deal. I guess I'll miss out on the pre-loading and probably TF2 items, but whatever - I think that peace of mind is worth more than imaginary items and convenient time-savers. Are you guys sure the skins are being offered on Amazon, though? I just checked there, and see nothing advertising it.
Pre-ordering tomorrow! :lovewcc:
I have a 15 dollar gamestop giftcard leftover from christmas, so I guess i'll get it from there.
[quote]Thank you for pre-purchasing Portal 2. As part of the pre-purchase promotion you have received a copy of Portal. If you already own this title you can give the game to a friend by visiting the 'LIBRARY' tab in Steam or clicking the button below.[/quote] It dropped to 34.19euro to me, I am no longer angry.
Traded 3 items in tf2 for it. :smug:
Pre-ordered it earlier today. Can't fucking wait!
Pre-order from amazon and get an awesome skin+physical copy. Pre-order from Gamestop and get an okay skin+physical copy of PC and PS3 Portal 2. Pre-order off of steam and receive five dollars off, copy of portal 1, and who knows what TF2 promo items. I want THEM ALL.
It's just 34 euro. Awesome, gonna buy it on Saturday!
They added the two pack right after I preordered :(
[QUOTE=Murdoco;28063848]Traded 3 items in tf2 for it. :smug:[/QUOTE] I'd be careful; the purchaser, if he's really smart, can cancel the preorder. And I'm not sure if it's okay to trade items for games, so I'm not sure if you could report him or not... [editline]15th February 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Max of S2D;28064168]They added the two pack right after I preordered :([/QUOTE] Same. My brother really wants to get Portal 2 as well. Maybe when he's ready to purchase I'll file a claim to Steam Support and see what they can do.
