Valve's Doug Lombardi, in talking with CVG, pledged that Portal 2 will be as innovative as the first game was.
"People gave it a lot of kudos for being so innovative so, in Valve's tradition, when we hit something, we're not just going to pump out more and cash in on the success of the first one."With Valve's dedication to making sure a title is both fun and innovative, these comments from Lombardi tie in nicely with the previous announcement that there won't be a new Portal in 2008.
Now Valve is determined to impress with the sequel. "We see it as a challenge to really innovate. If Portal was so innovative that it won all these GotY awards, then Portal 2 has to be even more so."
