Worth Reading?
We’ve finally gotten a little more info on the new Portal: Still Alive game that’s coming to the Xbox 360 later this year. We already know that it’s basically an expansion which happens to include the original game. But just what additional content are 360 owners going to get that PC gamers don’t? Absolutely nothing.
As it turns out, Portal: Still Alive is simply a collection of new maps that PC gamers have already had access to. Specifically, these are the maps pulled from the Flash-based version of the game created by We Create Stuff. There won’t be any additional storyline or appearances by our favorite OS.
This seems to make a little more sense, as I really couldn’t see Valve releasing something exclusive for the Xbox 360 (or any other console) when they’ve worked so hard on their Steam service. Now I’m just curious what the asking price will be for this title.

yeah but you can see the plus is those of us that want to play portal but not buy half life 2 again.
I have HL2 on my PC i bought the valve steam value pak or something like that, so i have had half life for a very long time. i just really dont want to buy the orange box for maybe one out of three games that is new to me
I’d be ticked if I didn’t get content because I don’t have a 360. I bought the O Box for the PC, and I love steam! No disks? Count me in! I hate the exclusive game thing. Developers don’t realize that they are the ones loosing out on sales. They are also missing out on potential for new franchises. Like resident evil, I couldn’t get a PS back in the day so I never really got into it. I wanted to, but now that I can afford to buy it I don’t really care to get into another franchise.
That’s just my thoughts on it.
