Portal: Wheeeeeeeeeeee

Now, I don't pretend to be a connoisseur of video games. Far from it. Nonetheless, I have, undoubtedly, discovered one of the greatest video games ever created. It's called Portal, and it is so, so very cool.

So very crazy. Here's the premise: You are some a test subject in a giant, mechanical test chamber. You have been given a portal gun, a device that lets you create portals and jump between them. In one, out the other, and your momentum carries through... which lets you do some crazy physics tricks... which is how you get through some giant puzzles. This whole time, you're being led through the course by a creepy, psychopathic, sadistic computer called GLaDOS.
It's just so cool. I suggest you get it, ASAP, from www.valvesoftware.com

Now you're thinking with portals!
