Portal: Prelude

on Saturday, October, 11, 2008 11:26 PM
Some of you who are in Tron-Squad or have me on your Steam freinds list may have seen me playing a mod called "Portal Prelude". Someone made a mod for Portal, and it's awesome (as well as hard, hardcore Portal gamers only!). It takes place before GLaDOS was constructed, when humans monitored the test chambers. Check it out!

http://www.portalprelude.com/
Also, the radio in the beginning does not play the Still Alive instrumental we all love, it plays the much more awesome "Rock You Like a Hurricane" by the Scorps, awesome!

Please keep in mind, this mod is NOT easy by ANY means. I was playing it earlier today and I left my PC with a headache for two hours. Remember, it's kinda "love it or hate it" at some points. Some levels just require luck to get through. In case you don't make it out of the testing alive, goodbye!

Looks cool, I'll have to give it a shot...

However... Although I own the game, Steam really doesn't like me very much so I'm using a crack to play all my HL2 games. Steam will never let me run anything so I had to find a crack. I justify this since I do own the games.

Nevertheless, it is really touchy when installing a mod so I'll give it a shot anyways...

Thanks for the heads up.. where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

Hmmmm, I think Prankster Bit had a similar prob. Is there a way to contact their tech support, in case that ever happens to me?

you're absolutely right, i did have a very, very similar problem. i found a workaround for it though. buy/build a new computer. this also solved the problem of World of Warcraft Crashing all the time.

and i tried contacting steam about this problem. they don't seem to give a damn. either way, turns out the problem was with my hardware, not steam.

anyway, that's for another thread.

that mod sounds good, i might give it a whirl

Yeah, it's pretty good, albeit really hard. The one problem I have with the level design is it's based more on being accurate with shooting than actual thinking. It still provides plenty of fun (and occasional headaches), though.
