Sorry if this has been posted before but I wasn't able to find a thread through the search. I also thought something of this magnitude would be on the front page too.

Portal 2 Confirmed by Valve
by Nick Breckon Feb 21, 2008 8:00pm CST tags: Portal 2, Valve
Valve's acclaimed puzzle-action hybrid Portal will be given a sequel, according to the game's lead designer Kimberly Swift.

"Well, I believe Doug Lombardi who is our lead marketing director at Valve, has announced Portal 2," said Swift in an interview with G4TV.

Lombardi had previously stated that more Portal was on the way, but Swift's comment is the first mention of a true sequel to be made thus far.

No further details on the project were provided.

Portal won the Game Developers Choice Award for Game of the Year last night in San Francisco. It also took home the awards for Innovation and Best Game Design.

    Was it locked because it was a lie, or because it should be in the steam thread?

    It should be a pre-sequel.

    Now would that be a prequel or a sequel that takes place between the original game and the "real" sequel?

    We locked it last time and are locking it this time because there is no information released to even begin to speculate on.
