I don't know why this took so long to make and release, but it's free and free is always nice.

Time attack pales in comparison to the 9 new coop maps.

Although I had to play the coop campaign alone, (Everyone was playing Portal 2 when I got home, and I assumed they all already played the DLC) I found the experience to be enjoyable. The ending made me laugh. I'm disappointed that there was no new Singleplayer maps, but the multiplayer is really whats going to hopefully keep Portal 2 alive.

Finally got a chance to give the DLC a try. Challenge Mode is pretty cool. Not as cool as totally new maps would be of course, but it does breathe a little bit of new life into the existing maps and inspires one to seek out new, shorter/less-portals-requiring ways of solving the familiar puzzles.

I have yet to try co-op. Gotta get my co-op partner online to give it a shot. 'Tis hard when we're both in class much of the day.

Zbot and I can't wait to start playing the coop. Did the challenges a while ago and they're pretty fun. I am so happy that we'll be reviewing this in the next episode of ASEMBLE, the Portal 2 podcast.

I heard that I'm on the single player video you're doing.

Anyway, completed the co-op. It's tricky, but do able with no guides. You get to play with the white paint in Co-op.

I can see where custom maps may appear in co-op with out the console now.

Looks like there are already cheaters on the leaderboards. According to the stats, that "Sande" guy has apparently beaten the entire game without ever firing a single portal.

That is entirely doable, I assure you.

Then he is obviously one of many people that cheat. Valve needs to erase any obvious cheaters on the leaderboards so that the people who rightfully deserve the top rank get it.

I absolutely loved the multiplayer and the ending (lol) and the challenge mode/leaderboards is really good too. However, I think Valve could've churned out more than 9 maps in half a year.

Look at how well we are making maps in shorter time than half a year. But to be fair, maps weren't the only thing Valve was working on for the DLC.

Right. Valve are working on other games and the continuous support and updates for their other games like TF2 and L4D (L4D having mutations every so often).
Honestly Portal 2 could do with a little fix up, but to them it works so it isn't a big problem.

Actually, I wasn't thinking of games, but that's another good point. I meant regarding to the Portal 2 DLC. Valve had to work on the ending cut-scene, more voice acting, night-vision, etc. But still you made a good point about other games.

For a moment, I thought at the end GLaDOS was going to turn Atlas and P-Body into humans.

I like how GLaDOS has Ornithophobia (fear of birds).

What, you wouldn't if one pecked at you for what had to be at least two hours - when all the while you were a potato?
