FREE PORTAL 2 DLC SHIPPING OCTOBER 4th
"Portal 2: Peer Review" Available on PC, Mac, PS3 and Xbox 360September 29, 2011 -- Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Half-Life and Counter-Strike) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced the free DLC update for its bestselling game franchise Portal 2 will be rolled out across all regions on Steam, Xbox LIVE and PSN starting October 4th. The free DLC, titled "Portal 2: Peer Review", is available to all owners of Portal 2 for download on PS3 and Xbox 360, and will be automatically downloaded via Steam on PC and Mac.
In "Peer Review", you and a friend will continue the story of loyal bots P-Body and Atlas as you puzzle your way through a mysterious new co-op test track and once again match wits with GLaDOS. The DLC also features a single player and co-op Challenge Mode, and leaderboards to compare Challenge Mode scores with friends and the Portal community.
Also, the third installment of the Portal 2 soundtrack is available on the official Portal 2 site. Volume 3 includes songs from the last act of Portal 2 including "Want You Gone", as well as more music from the Co-op campaign. Check it out now!
We also have put up a new Community Spotlight, highlighting of all things one of the best Portal 1 maps Try Anything Twice by long time community contributor, HMW. Install Portal 1 if you don't have it already (you did get it when it was free, right?) and give it a play!
Lastly, there is an amazing 20 minute long Aperture fan video that showed up on Youtube yesterday. This was really well done and is a lot of fun to watch. Here it is:
Oh well 11 days late and making me wait almost 6 months for challenges blows.... but at least it's FINALLY coming.
This is the first time Valve has ever released anything with a "3" in the name...!
A little disappointed that there don't appear to be new SP maps, but a new co-op campaign will be fun if I can get my co-op partner into a game ... we both have heavy school right now, so timing is a bit of an issue. Still, a reason to get back into it!
Edit: Just read the Turret Lullaby comic. Amazing and absolutely hilarious. Another thing to talk about on ASEMBLE. Can't wait

No scientist wants to deactivate a turret.

Was GLaDOS impersonating the phone company again? Tsk Tsk.
