We put on our thinking caps and jump into the hilarious and mind bending world of Portal 2.
PROS
Melting turrets with lasers and getting flying starts off goo covered ramps, while placing portals in mid air to fling you across levels gives a sense of satisfaction other games can only dream off.
CONS
Puzzles have limited replayability, although the single player and co-op gives one hours of content.
VERDICT
Portal 2 builds on the strengths of its predecessor, introducing new puzzles and obstacles in addition to fleshing out the story of Aperture Laboratories like you've never seen it before.
