I'm sure you're all hyped, so here's the thread to talk about it in. :D

Help the game get unlocked early! http://www.aperturescience.com/glados@home/

I hope it gets released at the weekend.

    I am currently marathoning the 3 games I have in the potatoe sack and am trying to earn the potatoes because it has been confirmed that they do help as well.

    I only have 5 of the potato games. And I already have all potatoes I can get from them (2 are way too hard for me or the game is too unplayable on my PC)

    The potatoes act as multipliers.

    Which is why I am after them.
    I only have 2 so far.
    I can get one from RUSH, but I am stuck at the 3rd actual challange.
    Then there is playing the song for audiosurf but I cant seem to get the gold metal.

    If Valve could call Gamestop and tell them to release early too, that'd be cool. :p

    Being a pre-order holder for the console version, I hope the game doesn't get released early for you Steam users. But I wish you luck anyway!

    I kinda wish Telltale was involved in this Potato Sack deal (though adding all this fancy content a point-and-click adventure game would be...tricky, to say the least). Portal 2 stuff aside, this is a great way to bring attention to indie games. And Valve's helped promote Telltale's stuff twice before, so why not? :p

    I suppose the most feasible thing they could have done would be to throw a themed table and deck into Poker Night.

    Maybe adding GLaDOS as an extra player? :p

    Puzzle Agent would have been ideal too.

    Oh yeah, I suppose it wouldn't be too hard to throw a couple of bonus puzzles into Puzzle Agent. I'm just thinking with the way Telltale designs their adventure games, there's no natural way to throw in any kind of "bonus area," unless they handled it maybe like SBCG4AP's extended play mode, I guess.

    Anyone know if that The Device Has Been Modified song add-on to AudioSurf will be available sometime? I'd like to keep it even after the promo deal is over.

    It's actually a very old song - been out since 2008. There's a download link on this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IGS9qY7xko

    I personally would love it even if it came out just a few hours early. Being in Australia means it comes out somewhere in the evening, and the earlier the better, considering I have school the following day. :/

    I feel like crying. A kid who hacked the 360 version just spoiled the ending in all caps in the title of a thread at SPUF.
    Thing is he posted it IN THE TF2 FORUMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Just avoid SPUF people. Whats worse. I knew about him. I avoided him. Until then!!!!!
    Also its a really good ending you wont be dissapointed. Unlike me:(

    God, why on earth would you ever, ever go to SPUF, especially before release of a Valve game, or any game really?

    SPUF is a bunch of whiny haters who think what's best is what was around last week or what's coming next month but never what they have right now.

    I wanted to laugh at some whiners on the TF2 forums and hope to post
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n5E7feJHw0 for kicks and then he spoiled the game.:(
    But hey I play portal for dark humor and gameplay. This spoiled both and story, but... Im sure theres more to be surprised in this game.

    Just got PMd on SPUF.
    "There are alot of twists, Valve went all out on this one. I won't ruin it for you but i will tell you
    the potatos do have meaning in relation to the game
    .
    Ok so that major spoiler isnt it in terms of how awesome the story and surprises are, so thats good.

    My friend hasn't played Portal before, does anyone happen to have an extra gift copy of it so that I can more effectively convince him to buy Portal 2 with me? :D

    If you do, just IM me on Steam.

    I saw a supposed ending on /v/ from the corner of my eye. It sounded ridiculous though, too ridiculous to be true. I won't say what it was, but if it pans out that way i'll still be somewhat shocked

    I'm really hyped for Portal 2, been rewatching the videos and listening to the music in my hyped state. It would be awesome if it did get released early, like maybe tonight or something, mainly to see if my computer can play the damn thing but hey we'll see.

    Also best to just ignore the SPUF for now. I mean it is fun to go their to see people rage but not so close to a Valve release. To many haters who be hating.

    If it is anything like Portal then the way to the end is more rewarding. But there seem to be some crazy people that think an experience is not an experience when you know the end of it.

    So yeah, what is with the countdown?
    Please be an early release, there still is so much I must learn even with the ending spoiled.
