We know the cake is not a lie - you get to see the delicious cake at the end.

I quite like the idea of a prequel, would be quite interested in seeing the place before things went pear shaped, see why the girls were being trained/tested. There's lots they can do with the story I guess.

Sweet. Played the original the other day, and it kicked a lot of ass. The computer is one of my favourite videogame characters.

A prequel would be really cool. I think that would have to focus too much on the storyline though.

She has a name, and it's GlaDOS.
I love the ending credits music! Now I've got to go play it again...

Where's the link? There's been tons of news about Portal sequels, and some of it has been faked. How can we even be happy with this "news" if you don't post a link?

Notice the dates on those articles? By the title of the thread you made it sound like cutting news.
