Portal 2 in the Works

Submitted by: Beren @ 08:21 PM | Friday, July 11, 2008 | (url: http://kotaku.com...)

They are advertising for a voice actor to play "Cave Johnson", the now-dead boss of Aperture. So this could possibly imply a prequel game of sorts? But who knows.. All I know really is that they are making another and I will buy and and play it. Hopefully its as great as the first one. But that is a pretty big benchmark.

Valve's acclaimed puzzle-action hybrid Portal will be given a sequel, according to the game's lead designer Kimberly Swift.

"Well, I believe Doug Lombardi who is our lead marketing director at Valve, has announced Portal 2," said Swift in an interview with G4TV.

Lombardi had previously stated that more Portal was on the way, but Swift's comment is the first mention of a true sequel to be made thus far.

Last night Spike TV hosted the 2007 Video Game Awards in Las Vegas, Nevada. While the biggest awards of the night went to the more console-friendly BioShock (Game of the Year) and Harmonix (Studio of the Year for developing Guitar Hero III and Rock Band), Valve's Orange Box did manage to snag two titles. It won the Breakthrough Technology award for Portal as well as Best PC Game overall. Not too shabby.
