she looks so depressed. I guess she just found out the health care bill was passed.

NO.... I think she's depressed because she has to be a part of an Aperture Science Enrichment Study, with cute little turrets that kill with an unGODLY AMOUNT OF BULLETS and speak with a cute voice.

I bet she's actually thrilled! Under the new law, Aperture Science Computer Aided Enrichment Activities are now covered!

I think she's just really bored. Still Alive must be the only song GLaDOS knows.

@Dalrint: True, but what sucks about her coverage is that if she dies during the Enrichment Activities, her insurance payment will be paid directly to Aperature Science, where GLaDOS would use the money to fuel the fires of all Aperature Science Emergency Intelligence Incinerators in the facility.

And the worst part is I think I haven't played enough Portal today.

The strangest part is the headpiece, that's basically the thing astronauts wear under their helmets isn't it? I wonder if our portal gun is gonna shoot us into space?

Looks like the headpiece to me. (It's called a Snoopy cap!)

What that means for the game, if it even means anything, is up to debate. Zero-G levels, perhaps?

We know from the end of Episode 2 that Aperture Science is currently operating in outer space, on board the Borealis. Presumably, that is why the facilities are abandoned during Portal.

So, if GLADOS and company recovered Chell at the end of Portal, that may be where they are sending her.

The Borealis is in the Arctic. Not outer space. At the end of Episode 2, the team launched a rocket into space in order to close the mega-portal that the Combine had created. That had nothing to do with the Borealis or the Portal series.

I guess someone really turned up the aperture here, and let in a lot of scientific light.

The game poses to be a pretty big success.

I'm going to have to write myself a note to buy this.

I guess a sequel was a must for the Portal team, I mean, they can, can't they?

how could you tell what she was in the first place? It was really hard to get a clear view of her face, let alone a whole genetic ancestry profile

It was pretty obvious in Portal that Chell wasn't white.

http://half-life.wikia.com/wiki/Chell

She's based off a model of Brazilian and Japanese descent.

the picture from her wiki is hardly "easy to tell" that she isn't white. To me it just look like she's a white person and they didn't spend a whole lot of time on her model. The thing about her models ancestry is pretty irrelevant too isn't it? Morrigan from Dragon Age was based on a model from California, but that doesn't make Morrigan Californian does it?

Is this concept art necessarily Chell (or the same Chell we play as in Portal 1)?

Isn't Portal 2 supposed to include some coop gameplay, perhaps this is Player 2, Think about it, Chell wore orange, this character is blue, what were the colors of the opening and closing portals again?

That's a bingo.
