Just finished the game a few minutes ago. I didn't play portal 1 at all (even though I have it), and was sceptical of how I would like this. Some of the levels were horribly frustrating and I had to resort to walkthroughs for a few (5 I think), but overall the game was insanely good, I thoroughly enjoyed it and thought the ending was very well crafted, Stephen Merchant was fantastic in his role, very funny as I thought he might, although I'm not convinced he's a natural 'bad guy'.
But yeah, 10/10 would recommend it to anyone
I really like it but the first better probably for nostaglia,
The game itself was fantastic.
Good puzzles
Good dialogue
Good humor
Good plot
Improved graphics
Personally prefer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59oSNeRvZUI from the Portal 2 soundtrack. It only plays at one hidden spot, which frankly aint that hard to find.
In terms of food for thought, still alive was better.
As an actual song, I think Want You Gone is superior.
*rewatches Turret Chorus and GLaDOS giving you your original (Notice the burns) companion cube* Can I go back in to hug her?

jonathan coulton is amazing
Turret Chorus is by far the best, then Still Alive, and then I Want You Gone... As a song the newer one is better than Still Alive, but the latter is so iconic and hilarious and heartwarming for a Portal fanboy xD
It reminded me of those awful songs made by old government bodies trying to tap into the hip-hop market to get their point across to the younger generation.
That said, the actual story and game play was superior.

The Turret song is better than Still Alive, especially when you know what it means. Ending song in Portal 2 is about the same as still alive to be honest. Obviously people are gonna think still alive is better because it became a meme over a couple years, but after time people will like the portal 2 one just as much.
With this game, it's less 'sight-seeing' as much as listening. Especially when Wheatley is around. If he's nearby and he's just spoken, you can literally stand still for another 5 minutes without being bored. Listening to all the dialogue extends the playtime by so much and you know what? It's all worth it.
So here we are lovers of lost dimensionsItsuka hi no kaze ni noote haruka tooiBurning supernovas, of all sound and sightHayaka no koto eEvery touch, a temptationItsuku sora hitotsu michimono hi WataateyukeyuAnd for every sense, a sensationHanateta koto e
I personally enjoyed the turret song at the end the most. I wish I could get the mp3 of that. It was really good.
Btw here is a rough translation of the Opera turrets song:
Cara, bel, cara mia, - Dear, beautiful, my dear,
bella bambina, - beautiful girl,
oh Chell, - oh Chell,
que lastima, - that's too bad,
que lastima, - that's too bad,
deh! Cara mia, - well, My dear,
addio. - farewell.
Mia bambina, - My girl,
cara, - dear,
perchè non passi - why don't you stay
lontana, deh - away
sì lontana - yes, away
da scienza? - from science?
Cara, cara - Dear, dear,
mia bambina,- my girl,
ah mia bel, - my beautiful,
ah mia cara, - my dear,
la mia cara, - my dear,
la mia bamina, - my girl,
oh cara, - my dear,
cara mia… - my dear…

I wasn't even aware there were actually lyrics to that song. Neat. I'll have to listen to it again sometime.

Reality is nothing; Perception is everything.
its melody wasn't as catchy and memorable, but it was still good.
