Still Alive! Portal - Completed
Jan 7th, 2008 by Steve
I’m on a roll, it’ll never last. Three games completed in three consecutive days! Anyway, I’m too fickle to come up with top ten lists of anything, but if I were to do a top ten of games from 2007, I’d be hard pushed to choose between this and the equally sublime Super Mario Galaxy, such is the magnificence of Portal.
Level 18 really had me scratching my head, and seemed to take as long to complete as all the previous levels combined. The final level, 19, was truly excellent as I tried to make my escape from the laboratory and the song, Still Alive, that plays out upon completion of the game was as brilliant and funny as all the reports online had stated. Portal, however brief, is an instant classic.
