Is a masterpiece. I played co-operative with my roommate for three hours and it didn't feel like ten minutes went by. It makes you think and with two people thinking together there is a huge feeling of accomplishment when we succeed. If you liked the first portal, or like video games or Valve I highly recommend you check it out. I think anybody could pick this game up and play it no skills required.
In normal mode you play a human ( I think ) but in co-op you play one of two robots a short fat one named Atlas and a tall skinny one named P-body. When you die as a human it is game over but as a robot a new one just gets made. It comes to a point where you get stuck and it is easier to die and start over than to get unstuck. Also that means the level hazards are more devestating and difficult because if you fail there is one second of down time until a new robot identical to the first drops down and you can try again. Meanwhile GLADOS the synthetic creepy voice makes funny and disparaging comments about it like, "...Will someone remake Atlas please?" except she says orange or blue depending on your guy who has orange or blue trim for players 1 and 2. Anyway, fun game.
I'd say more but I'm getting over an illness and should sleep.
