Been playing this for weeks now. Great expansion, and don't worry, GLADOS still talks to you throughout.

i'm still pretty confused here... wasn't the flash maps an unauthorized fan-created expansion?

if so, who voiced GLaDOS??

They just reuse the same sound clips from the original Portal. Having already played them on PC, I can say that even without a new Glados voice over, the game is still great. Really creative levels, and rather interesting little story (more than you'd expect at least), and a new boss fight.

"Based On" ... like how Uwe Boll's Alone in the Dark movie was "Based On" Alone in the Dark?

I don't think it's worth it to get it on XBLA. I mean, the game isn't even demanding enough to warrant a purchase, and we know that Microsoft will try to bank on the success of Portal by charging around 800 points or so on the pack. I mean, I enjoy remakes of old games, but this just seems to be a backpedal. Honestly, the puzzles were pretty good in Portal, but it was the overall package that made it appealing to me, especially the dark humor. This is just a small taste of what the real game has to offer, and if you had the choice, just go ahead and spend another $20 or so and get the Orange Box.

If you do own Portal and just want more, you should all go here: http://www.moddb.com/games/portal/downloads . Seriously, you'll thank me for it later.

The PSN offering are truly great full of Sony made games. There's really no need for an overrated, overpriced Valve game that offers nothing new.

BTW what is the name of Microsoft's first party studio?
