Production values are obviously incredible, but I can't help but think I miss the simplicity of the first one.

Whereas video game co-op has a tendency to boil down to a binary choice between both shooting the same dude or both shooting two different dudes, Portal 2's mode is true to its name, forcing real cooperation between players. In one instance, I had to be the eyes of my teammate, helping him to navigate a maze that would have been almost impossible to complete from a first-person view.

Clearly he didnt play the same coop i did ... what maze? (i can only assume he means level 408)

The bit with the two buttons which push the blocks up / down where one person is walking through it and doesnt know what theyre doing in terms of absolute position / with an overview of the route?

There are two of those mazes though, if you count the one where you have to use portals to travel through it while the other person moves you along with the push/ pull of the beamy thing (it's late I'm going to bed >.>)

By the way guys, I now have a spare copy of Portal 1 if anyone wants it. Just PM me. First come first served!

Give them to people who havent played portal.

That is, of course, under the assumption that us gamers have friends who arent gamers.

e2a: If you are a gamer and *havent* played portal: Shame on you.

I poked the EVE-Radio IRC channel and said "who wants portal for free?"

Someone put his hand up and admitted to never having played it, so i sent him my free copy of portal before I sent the gaming police over...

And then there are those that just cannot afford to get new games every five seconds :p
Do have the first Portal game, though!

I'm talking about the first portal, not portal 2.

Yes, the first portal, the one that valve gave away *for free* :p
