chezmaxI'm quite enjoying my Christmas break, other then perhaps a mild case of being overfed :)
I tried another run of Super Metroid. I got to Ridley at about the 2h10 mark, but I don't seem to have enough energy tanks to beat him. Oops.
So, I decided to do something different. I reinstalled Steam, and downloaded Portal on Christmas day (when I had absolutely no commitments).
I honestly can't think of anything bad to say about this game. It was totally awesome, from start to finish. The whole mechanic was fun. The writing and character development (such as it was), was excellent. The humour, fantastic. The ending, wonderful. The length, perfect. Even Zero Punctuation loved it. The song (Still Alive, by Jonathon Coulton), great. It's quite possibly the best PC game I've played in years. [/fanboy].
I can has weighted companion cube now?
