    Play to Play Portal 2 Early!

    The main part of the Portal 2 ARG has concluded. The final phase has just begun. There's a new game afoot in the Portal 2 ARG and this time it's literally all about playing games.


    The countdown timer has hit 0 and a new site has been uncovered.

    Essentially you, the gaming populace of the world, determines when Portal 2 is released. Right now it's still scheduled for release on Tuesday at 7AM PST, but that can and will change depending on how much you play.

    Play any of the Potato Sack games to increase the "Current CPU" for that particular game. The longer you play, the faster the bars will fill. Once a bar is filled for a game, the wait for release shrinks. If a bar is already filled for a game, play another one in the list that needs help.

    It's really just that simple and entirely dependent on what you manage to accomplish as to when we'll all see Portal 2.

    So what are you waiting for? Start up those games!

        ... By giving you an opportunity to get the game released earlier than the announced release date?

              Stay out of the radioactive areas.

              I played the CoD4 campaign too much.

                Do you know how much life was wasted on that ARG? I imagine it probably wasn't gonna be used any better but after all their toil (I admit I enjoyed the cleverness of it all) all the hours and they don't even get a concrete thing.
