MTV asks if you want a sequel to Portal
Yes, Portal is awesome. Yahtzee loves it. I love it. Everyone loves it. Thus, MTV asks the inevitable question: do you want a sequel?
If you asked a game publisher, they would naturally say yes. If you asked any gamer who knows Portal, they might say yes. If you asked me, I would say no.
Can’t we just leave an excellent game alone? Must we look for a sequel and just end up disappointed that its successors got worse at each outing?
Sure, a sequel may address some of Portal’s flaws. A sequel could also totally destroy it. No, I don’t want a Portal franchise that would be milked like Mario, Sonic, Zelda, or Gordon Freeman.
Fuck a sequel.
I just wants thems map packs! :-)
Good point. ;)
I’m wondering however if the next HL2 episode will incorporate bits of Portal gameplay. I think it would be awfully interesting.
I just hope each publisher aiming to make the “next best FPS” doesn’t try to make some sort of clone.
