Eurogamer loves them some Portal, so it was with great joy that they took to previewing Portal: Still Alive. Still Alive is the upcoming Xbox Live Arcade only release of Portal.
Well, it's certainly not a sequel. If anything it's a compilation, a hefty 631MB download which contains the original and much praised Portal game, along with a chunk of new material. Fourteen additional Challenge Maps, based on the 2D maps from the Flash version and accessed via a separate menu option, are included under the Still Alive banner and good performance in these unlocks a further six Testchambers, which in turn have six advanced alternate layouts. That's twenty-six new Portal maps to explore in total, with a small but robust reward system built in for superlative play.The game is out next week on the Live Arcade. Gamers everywhere can begin to experience Portal all over again in a brand new light.
