Portal 2 公布

vertusd

在最近一次PORTAL的突然升级后，如大部分玩家预料的一样，VALVE 公布了 PORTAL II ，  这一次PORTAL将作为独立的游戏发布，而非 ORANGE BOX 一样的捆绑模式，这意味着更长的游戏时间和更多的DLC,   而且据 GAMEINFORMER 称  ，有COOP模式可供选择。其实CO-OP模式我倒不怎么期待，我期待的是 对抗模式，或者加入更多的动作，而非纯粹的解密。如在EP3中加入 时空枪，CO-OP模式的实际效果我也有点担心，毕竟解密很多时候是一个人的事情，有很多东西，两个人很难配合，例如时间，特别是在没有语音的情况下，而对抗就不存在这种交流问题了。根据GAMEINFOMER的文章此次的CO-OP只是变相的单人模式，也就是有两个人物可供选择，各自负责不同的谜题。



STEAM NEW :

Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Left 4 Dead, Counter-Strike and Half-Life) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced Portal 2 for shipment this coming holiday season.

Portal 2 is the sequel to 2007's Portal, which won 70 industry achievement awards.

GAMEINFOMER  4月号：

Valve is known for making quality first-person shooters: The Half-Life series redefined how players think about the FPS genre, while titles like Team Fortress and Left 4 Dead took team-oriented multiplayer action to a whole new level. But among Valve's stable of popular shooters, one game stands alone: the mind-bending puzzler, Portal. A small-scale experiment that was squeezed into 2007's The Orange Box alongside some powerful heavyweights, the love Portal received from fans was beyond anything Valve could have imagined, winning it a full-fledged, standalone sequel. Our 12-page cover story gives you the first details on Portal 2's new gameplay mechanics, storyline, and some surprising new twists.

Other features in April's issue include a celebration of The Sim's 10th anniversary with creator Will Wright, and an interview with Yoshinori Kitase and Motomu Toriyama about the making of Final Fantasy XIII. We also talk to PopCap founder Jason Kapalka about the state of casual gaming, then grill some big name developers to find out why games don't feature more female protagonists in our 4-page feature, The Gender Gap. Additionally, it wouldn't be an April issue without the return of our irreverent doppelganger, Game Infarcer.

Hands-on previews of Alan Wake, Red Dead Redemption, and Lost Planet 2 are just a few of the upcoming games this issue covers, while reviews of Just Cause 2, Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening, and the highly-anticipated God of War III round out the issue.

There are two versions of the cover this issue – the second one reverses the portals. Here's what it looks like:

关于 COOP模式：

In case you somehow missed our big cover reveal, Portal 2 is set to drop this upcoming holiday season at full retail price. Even though the first game was just a few hours long, the sequel promises some extra content for your return through Aperture Science, most notably the inclusion of co-op.

While we won't reveal much more (be sure to read our 12-page story in our April issue) just know the original portal isn't the last time you'll see GLaDOS. There will also be surprising new characters and brand new areas of the Aperture Science Labs. The two-player co-op mode will feature its own campaign with two new playable characters. When it comes to these mind-bending puzzles, two brains are always better than one.
