I was sitting, live, in Sony’s E3 press conference, when Valve’s Gabe Newell made a surprise appearance (and an even more surprising announcement). Valve’s Portal 2 would soon be coming to the PS3. Well, now we are only one month away from Portal 2′s release, and PS3Blog.net, along with Valve, are giving you an opportunity to win a copy.
For those of you that don’t know, Portal 2 is a first-person action/puzzle video game that has both single and two-player co-operative game modes. Portal 2, one of the most anticipated games of the year, is the sequel to the title that earned over 30 Game of the Year Awards in 2007.
Keep in mind, the PS3 version of the game allows for cross-platform play with PC/Mac versions. To top that, the PS3 version will also allow you to download the game off of Steam onto your computer as well, after linking your PSN and Steam accounts.
For those that missed the NEW single player campaign footage that we captured at PAX East, you can see it here.
And now for the contest!!
1st Place – PS3 Portal 2 Game & Portal 2 T-Shirt (Large)
2nd Place – Portal 2 T-Shirt (Large)

@Belmor this contest is NOT North America specific, so you can actually try to win outside of the USA.

Also, if by chance I win, is there anyway I can substitute a large Portal 2 t-shirt with possibly a sized small PS3Blog.net t-shirt? I would use a large shirt as a blanket, probably. Thanks.
#33 by Clint on March 21st, 2011 [ 41653 Points ]

#35 by Luke on March 21st, 2011 [ 27347 Points ]
