The Hitcher Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Portal I've never played it but always wanted to. Praying that my graphics card is up to scratch. Downloaded this the other day, both mac and pc are free, win. Such a great game! Though my mac isn't at all up to scratch running it. Laaaaag!

forteh Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Portal I've never played it but always wanted to. Praying that my graphics card is up to scratch. Likewise, fortunately my gtx260 and 4 ghz core i3 manages to play it at 1600x1200 @ 200fps Already finished the main game, not laughed so much at a game before, well worth it; now working through some of the thousands of 3rd party maps, Seriously if your graphics card can run halflife2 it can run portal - basically anything beyond a 7 year old radeon 9800 should be more than playable.

JT! Posted May 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Why is this a Sticky? I guess because one of the mods or admin are awesome. "Speedy thing goes in, speedy thing comes out" It runs pretty well on my budget one year old laptop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its based on a 6 year old game engine, any recent pc will run it fine as long as you have some modicum of a 3d accelerator The song on the end credits is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good game and everyone likes free stuff so i didn't think anyone would complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clawz114 Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Full graphics for me too. 1920x1080 with AA at full and all the settings. Overclocked GTX295 though I found the game quite easy, including the 6 advanced maps. The Challange maps however, are quite hard. Particularly the "least steps" challanges. I just cant do them to save my life. Check this out. Stage 14 in 3 seconds! Ive managed to replicate the move, but the best i could do was 6 seconds. Damn this guys good.

Revolver Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 I've done all the advanced ones. I've not done many of the challenge ones though, they're rather hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
club_card Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Im five minutes into the game and already bored I can't get across the gap. The most fun I've had is shooting the cameras off the wall and that womans voice is so irritating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to think laterally, the main storyline is actually really easy, very few challenging bits to it, some of the 3rd party maps on the other hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolfa Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Stunning game, took me and my mate weeks to figure out how to do some of the time trials and fewest moves challenges! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted May 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 I'm stuck on the last boss, last eye thing. It's just suspended in mid air, tried falling from a portal way up high and grabbing it on the way down but not having much luck. Am I doing it right?

Clawz114 Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 (edited) I'm stuck on the last boss, last eye thing. It's just suspended in mid air, tried falling from a portal way up high and grabbing it on the way down but not having much luck. Am I doing it right? Yes. You have to make a portal on the floor level and then one up high and jump through it, grabbing it while you fall. Its a bit tricky and it took me a couple of tries the first time, but you are doing it right. How far are you guys through the bonus maps? Ive done all the advanced maps and im 52% through the challange maps. Make that 70% 80% (Finding it really hard to progress any further now) 100% Edited May 22, 2010 by Clawz114 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
