What Valve Corporation's Doug Lombardi hinted at previously seems to be getting some confirmation.

Portal
(Xbox 360, PS3, PC) Lead Designer Kimberly Swift has confirmed during an interview at GDC 2008 event that their highly-awarded game is indeed going to get a part 2. As to whether there will be cake, that remains to be seen.

That aside, Swift also narrated on how Portal had started out as a student project back in her days in the DigiPen Institute of Technology, before getting scouted by Valve. Not that we'll spoil that info bit for you, though. You can view it here for yourself. Enjoy!

I thought Portal sucked so I couldn't care less about another game. Valve sucks anyways so I won't even bother with their games anymore. Valve, R*, & EA are pretty much on the ***** list.

damm the first portal was cazy i nearly threw up twice playing that messed up game but still it was a lil bit addictive so i might get the next 1 out but i reckon they should make it a download from the store

> I'd agree ...but I hope they're makin' it a longer game entirely. I laughed my ass off in that game.
