[Multiplatform] New Half-Life Bundle (Ep 2/Portal/TF2)

Anyone knows if there's a multiplayer portion to that game? I sure as hell hope so, but then I suppose that the physics simulations and even just rendering the world, could get somewhat complicated with 16 portals at once. I guess it all depends on how they code their engine; if they use various shortcut and make the one possible portal a special case or if they actually take their time to make the portals no different from any other object. Since we're talking about Valve here, and they usually deliver quality, not to mention make their stuff as easy to mod as possible, I'd lean toward the second option.

Still, that's absolutely amazing, and the gun apparently seems to be able to pick up stuff as the gravity gun can. Reminds me of something I once wanted to try; building a level with impossible geometry in Unreal Tournament, since the engine sorta supports portals. I guess I just might get the chance. Even better, I'll be able to do it in Worldcraft, which I've already used, unlike Unreal's map editor.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I really hope you're wrong. It would be incredible in multiplayer. Especially with teams, where you could open a portal, then have someone else use his portal gun through your own to... well, do shit. I wonder what firing directly at someone else would do.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Hahaha, just watched the TF2 trailer. This is either going to be awesome or the biggest disappointment I've had in a long time. But hey, out of Episode 2 proper, Portal and TF2, at least one of them is bound to be really fun, right? Beside, it's Valve, and I don't remember them ever disappointing me before. Then again they release games about as often as Blizzard does.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
