Truly intriguing but joining in the fray right now would not be convenient for me so might as well grab a popcorn and observe valve's little game of tease.

I thought i could finish that achievement(16/26) right now if it wasn't for steam community currently down for maintenance, oh such an update made me play a game at my most inactive time.

If I didn't love Valve before, I really do now.

Talk about replay value.

And I know that Gordon is never going to get a new HEV suit, but the new colors on that Apple suit really look SLICK. It actually reminds me of Dead Space.

I thought of Dead Space too haha. Not many games are still very entertaining after 2 full playthrus :p

And wait... new portal ending??

Steam forums have worked out that another update will be happening tomorrow (friday) at some point, exactly 48hours after the last. This is not mere speculation either, the 'progress bar' seen on the BBS streamed images is almost at the end, so prepare guys!!

no unfortunately, but it's going to occur at 4pm GMT/8am PST, exactly 48 hours after the last update. The progress bar is currently on 62 steps, and it ends on 76...so If there isn't a new update, I'd be very surprised.

Hands down and bar none, the link posted below is the most complete resource for info on this topic. Perhaps the OP should be updated to contain this link!!

How deep will the Portal rabbit hole really go?

PS, There is a fun (not Portal related, though) article to read on the TF2 blog about their trials and tribulations in developing new updates for the Engineer. I think they are struggling to keep some of the limelight for themselves this week, lol. http://teamfortress.com/post.php?id=3539

I wonder how many more times people will post the above image. We're on post #2.

Edit: It's completely obvious that this is going to be some sort of Co-Op portal game. "Party Escort Program"? I don't think they could have spelled it out even more.
