hah its just like prey. except you know where youre gonna end up and they added a few new things to it. nice job rippin off 3drealms valve. guess portals will be a standard in furturistic fps' now. it would be cool to take out an unsuspecting camper that way. leave a portal in a camper spot then wait for soemoen to arrive, then make a new hole and drop a bomb or a box thru it to crush em.

ok so going by your logic every FPS after what wolfenstien must suck. Preys portal technology is totally different from this. Theyre all portals to pre determined spots on the maps. This creates dynamic portals anywhere for making some pretty unreal puzzle elements. Please for the love of god knock the prey ripoff bullshit on the head. Yea they did it first so what?

Valve bought out the people who made this game which is a very beta Portal. Pretty much just a puzzle game actually but using portals. It's pretty fun but yes gets frustrating at times. That is why it's multiplayer only portals dosn't seem to be a singleplayer setup.

Looks cool, tbh i thought this was a prey mod when i first saw the video. Then i saw the vid on hardocp as well and it said source along with it. I was pretty confused / shocked, but i suppose valve thought "hey wtf, everyone stole the gravity gun from us!"

[Edit]
Missed the post about this being a sequel. Weird so it's just a coincidence?

Kind of impossible to confuse Source with D3E I would say.

wikipedia ftw

"Valve Corporation are releasing a professionally-developed semi-sequel to Narbacular Drop entitled Portal. It is expected to be released at fall 2006 bundled with Half-Life 2: Episode Two, for Xbox 360, PC and PlayStation 3. Some or all of the original Drop team are now employed at Valve.

It has been confirmed that Portal is to be set within the Half-Life universe, though how it will tie in with Half-Life history is at this point entirely unclear."

Portals have been around forever but this is a nice new way to use them. It reminds me of that Lionhead tech demo, i forget the name, The Room? I wonder if thats where they got the idea for this game.

Speaking of The Room, can someone please hack their servers and get that demo out. tia! =)

Few mirrors for the Narbacular Drop game.

Did you notice the new type of turret, it has the same style as the new portal/gravity gun.

Has that uber futuristic tech look, all curves and sparkling whites. Maybe it'll be introduced into the HL2 universe as what the original combine technology looks like when it hasn't been constructed using components found on earth. Maybe it's an entirely new technological culture, but I doubt it considering how similar that turret was to the ones encountered in vanilla HL2.
