Valve today announced that Portal 2 - the sequel to the ground-breaking title that won over 30 game of the year awards, despite missing its original ship date - will now be available the week of April 18th, 2011. This two month slip not only marks the shortest delay in Valve's proud tradition of delays, it represents the approaching convergence of Valve Time and Real Time. Though this convergence spells doom for humanity, it will not affect the new Portal 2 release date.

Valve Time and Real Time will merge in 2012, creating a space-time singularity that will destroy the universe - or maybe only our galaxy.

Are we surprised? I think not.

Valve shouldn't announce release dates anymore, just delay dates (that inevitably get delayed).

Reusing material are we?

As long as the damn games get released, I don't mind the wait.

Quality of the games always trumps a timely release date. I don't want to play a semi-beta version of a game (i.e. the original Far Cry).

That semi beta has better ai and better graphics then half of today's games.

You really think so? I thought it was exceedingly mediocre.

Cheer up, Valve didn't beat Blizzard at delays. Yet.

Far Cry 2 is far worse.

Got it, played for like an hour. It BLOWS. Small gun battle followed by thirty minutes of wandering around in the dark/bloom just to get to the next fun part. Awful.

Crollo, I genuinely can't tell if you're a troll or whether you're actually as obtuse as you come across in many of your posts.

If you're playing "today's games" which look worse than Far Cry then there's something seriously wrong with your PC. It looked great when it came out, sure, but it played crap and hasn't aged well graphically. Also it inspired a sequel which was just dreadful.

That actually doesn't look that bad...
