Portal 2: The Puzzle Game Revolution

Valve has done it again. With more playing time and a more intense story, Portal 2 is highly anticipated by gamers all around. In the game, you are placed in an old, and vegetation covered Aperture Laboratories ten years after the first portal. You will be forced to test an extremely experimental portal gun in many mind-bending puzzles for the extremely inventive AI, GLaDOS . These puzzles are very fun as you still have a brilliant story to follow. You can interact with many materials, such as lasers, mirror boxes, propulsion and repulsion gels, sentry bots, etc. You will really need to use your brain in this puzzle game of epic proportions, and you'll need to put those portals to use. 
Once you've finished the normal story you can play the online co-op story as well, which is an entirely different campaign than single the player one. You will need to use the help of your friend a whole lot, meaning he can't just sit back and watch as you masterfully complete the puzzles for him, he needs to help too.
Coming to PS3, XBOX 360, PC, and Mac, I think this sequel to one of the top games of 2007 is a winner, and will be a best-seller for gamers of all ages. With new additions to your arsenal of manipulative devices, and additional hours of gameplay, I give Portal 2 a 9.5/10. Not a ten because that the co-op multiplayer is not split-screen and I would've loved to solve some puzzles with my friends.
