News & Rumors Other

GamesCom is over, but as a final treat, Valve has released some high-resolution pictures of their Portal 2 demo on their FTP. Said FTP is inaccessible (to us smelly amateur LambdaGeneration folks), but thankfully, Halflife2.net is hosting the images. They have lovely leaky ingame prefixes. “sp_sabotage”, you say? Mwhahahaha! Deliciously not-so-informative knowledge fills my brain!

There’s more, and we wish we could post them, but all the versions we could find had obnoxious watermarks, and the originals are on Valve’s FTP, which, as previously stated, we can’t access.

They’ve also put up a high-res version of the Wheatley video on their official YouTube channel, and IGN has the other videos:
