The masterpiece of 1st person puzzle games. Meet the companion cube, GLaDOS and her turrets. Explore Aperture and this great story inside of it. Use the portal gun to travel and solve puzzles. Get to the cake (that may or may not be real). Amazing short game, that will forever be a classic. [h1]It's Portal, just play it already![/h1]
Portal was a great game for its time and definitely deserves the praise it gets. That said, it was just okay for me personally. I enjoyed playing it once, but it's not something I feel the need to come back to.
