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).
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Two of the best games out there, and they both still hold up, imo. The original also recently got a graphics upgrade to put it in par with the sequel, which is nice.
Word? I’mma have to play Portal 1 again to check out the new visuals.
Just a heads up: it’s a mod but is listed as a separate game on Steam:

It came out in 2022, however, so IDK why OP is saying “recently”.
For a game that came out in 2007, a 3-yo mod is “recent”. Mostly.
I would argue that the upgrade makes it look better than the sequel. The path tracing is really good.
I don’t think Portal 2 ever got the RTX treatment, but please correct me if I’m wrong, because I need a good excuse to play it again (and hold me off for awhile I wait for Half-Life 2 RTX).
