I'm a few hours into it; no idea what percentage I've completed, but I'm on the gel levels now. It's just as hilarious, just as fun, and just as occasionally-maddening as the first.

There are two minor drawbacks: your crosshairs no longer light up when pointing at a portal-ready wall, and established portals now have this irritating AR thing so you can see where they are in the map no matter where you are. The latter does come in handy when you forget which color you left behind, but I considered that part of the difficulty of the first one, and meanwhile the fact that they always appear on screen even when behind walls kind of ruins the perspective.

But that hardly matters, because it's Portal. The mythology has been expanded exponentially. I can't wait to play it online, especially now that PS3 is Steam compatible.

i beat it, its awesome, just like the first. I like that they go back into it and explain the story. Where "she" came from and all that. Wheatly is funny too. Took me a day so...7 hours?

Finished single-player. Fantastic, satisfying ending, great final boss, etc. I'd say it took me about eight hours, and I'm the kind of person who checks every nook and cranny looking for secret stuff.
