Portal’s level designer Kim Swift stated that “currently the game runs about four hours,” although at first glance the game seems quite difficult she reassures that “in the game we take you step by step in terms of being able to use your portals.” The “gun” used in Portal seems comparable to the gravity gun used in Half-Life 2 and is sure to twist your brain into knots. While the designers say that the game doesn’t have too sharp a learning curve I can’t help but think about some of the videos that are currently out and how complex some of the maneuvers seem to successfully complete and I doubt that many people will be able to beat the game in 4 hours.

You must not forget though that Portal is bundled with 4 other games as well as is sure to be a mind boggling experience that everyone can enjoy; or maybe they will get so frustrated they will chuck there controller out the window. Although with Team Fortress and the included Half-Life Episodes this will be a must have for any FPS fan of the genre.
