No, it's the original Steam release.

...Which is also the retail release. :downs:

Okay, I'm being hypothetical here, and I don't expect you guys to know the answer obviously, but I wanna throw this out there and see if this still sounds logical:

My friend gifted me Portal 2 on PC after I had already pre-ordered on PS3. My brother wants to play co-op, so I'm not going to cancel either pre-order. HOWEVER, I want to tie my PSN and Steam account together to keep trophies and whatnot up to date. At the same time, if I could make it so his PSN is the one that actually recieves the free PC version, I'd be able to play coop with him using both the tv and computer.

So here's my current thought:

Based on this:

It looks like the PSN and Steam tie is a completely seperate thing from the game claim.

So, if I'm reading this right, it should be possible to:

1: Tie my steam and PSN account together, but not recieve the complimentary game on my account (as I already own Portal 2 on PC)

2: Tie HIS PSN and steam account together, and give him the free Portal 2 copy

3: Play Portal 2 on my computer, while he uses his PSN account with the TV.

Does that make sense/ is it possible?

Fuck. An old friend just asked to meet up for coffee tomorrow pretty much when the game's being released :saddowns:

[Roov]

Any word on what the DLC might be?

[Irespawnoften]

Tell him to bring a couple packets of instant coffee over to your house and co-op with him instead.

It's a her so not really into gaming otherwise I would have done exactly that :saddowns:

Will have to go though, never put gaming in front of social life even in times like these

[Scarfulhu]

[QUOTE=Prism;29266029]Any word on what the DLC might be?[/QUOTE]

I'm thinking co-op maps are likely.

[QUOTE=Prism;29266029]Any word on what the DLC might be?[/QUOTE]

The map from the sixense demo. Yes, that's confirmed.

8 hours and Audiosurf still hasn't finish? :/

[Soaped]

I have a gift copy of portal if anyone is interested, seeing as all of my friends have it.

You obviously need to think with Portals here.

I also got a spare copy of Portal 1.

[GetBent]

[QUOTE=spog;29266028]Fuck. An old friend just asked to meet up for coffee tomorrow pretty much when the game's being released :saddowns:[/QUOTE]

Put portal in coffee shop, put portal next to computer. Talk to friend through portal.

[veDemaG]

Portal 2 comes out around 7 tonight in my timezone

Without Audiosurf

:toot:

[LooperNor]

Okay everyone, there's speculation that STOPPING to play the potato games will make the auxiliary potatoes kick in and give everything a boost, so lets try to stop playing them.

[D_M_]

Should I cancel my other pre-order and get portal 2 on steam?

It would be 10€ more expensive though.

I think trying to stop few THOUSANDS of people from playing this games, equals to an attempt to stop a moving train

Now I'm thinking with portals
