Just picked these up, an hour or so in and I see why they are highly acclaimed. 80% off on Steam (came to less than CAD$5 for both).

Obligatory

I’ve been doing this for years now. Over the past ten years I’ve probably only bought about five games that were over £15.

Reminds me of the first time I played Portal. I was really excited for the “hilarious song” in the credits that all the reviews were raving about.

Imagine my disappointment when I finally get to the end, only to discover that the “hilarious song” was just Still Alive

I bought the game shortly after release, but within a week it had already been memed to death and back again. I hadn’t been disappointed that much by a game ending since the NES days.

I had the opposite. I played it about 6 months after release, I’d heard all the “the cake is a lie” memes, but somehow I hadn’t heard that song and it caught me totally by surprise at the end of the game. It was such a good experience.

The portal 2 song is good too, but nothing like the feeling of beating the first game and hearing Still Alive.

The tiny piece of opera when ascending the elevator at the end of 2 truly moved me. Only game ever I’ve shed a tear on.

AKSHULLY Portal 2 featured two original songs: Want You Gone by JoCo, and Exile Vilify by The National.
