Spoiler Alert: Portal
Tuesday, November 6th, 2007Spoiler Alert ought to come with no qualifying remarks. The title itself is, one would hope, sufficient to frighten off anyone who has yet to experience a game and wishes to do so untainted. But in just this one special case, it is worth noting particularly that the less you know about Portal before you begin the better your experience will be. It is precisely this revelation that has made the wonder of Portal so maddening: Once you’ve been pulled into its wonderful, twisted little world it can be all you want to talk about and yet you feel inclined to refrain, out of deference to those who have yet to dive into the Enrichment Center.
Swooping to the rescue is Spoiler Alert, here to provide a safe haven for the Portal initiates to discuss what has become the buzz of the gaming community.
