Video: Portal 2 [Spoiler Warning], Meet Wheatley And More!
First off, if you want to be on an embargo on any news for Portal 2, these videos, and especially the one above, will likely not be for you.
What we have above is part one of a seven part series to highlight everything available at the E3 demo. The videos look like they'll be focusing on primary elements concerning the game, with this first introducing us to Wheatley, a companion orb with a British accent. He looks like he'll be useful, and a bit amusing to carry about with you.
Which is to say, the first trailer here gives a glimpse into how they're expanding the narrative and characterization part of the game--something I believe I am for, given Valve's involvement, but I'm sure will make some wary after the blank-slate for the first game excepting GLaDOS.
Hit the jump for more videos, which give further insight into the new tools available to Chell.
Here we have the "Excursion Funnels," which serve as a gravity field through the portal gun. As is to be expected, this can lead to puzzly-platformy goodness.
'Faith Plates,' also known as jumpy-goodness, seem much more simple and straightforward.
While the game may be delayed, here's to hoping the videos can sate some of that anticipation (or not really)
