Portal used to cost money. Until May 24th, it's free. End of story.
Well, technically speaking, there are some strings attached. Fortunately, they're entirely decorative. We just like the way they look, swaying in the gentle breeze created by a million people simultanously fainting from shock at the news that Portal is free. Now you have no reason not to try Portal.
"I have a reason," some of you are probably typing into an angry email. "You see, sir, I own a Mac."
Well guess what: For the first time ever, Portal is also available for the Mac.
"Capital news! But the excellent puzzle adventure Portal won over 40 Game of the Year awards; Surely it must cost at least five or six hundred dollars."
You'd think that, especially since it actually won over 70 Game of the Year Awards. But, like we keep saying, Portal is free. Free on the Mac. Free on the PC. But only until May 24th. So you only have a few days to decide if your free copy of Portal is worth the price we're currently charging - which is you ever-so-slightly moving your index finger just barely enough to click the big red "download" button right there to the left.

Download Steam and install Portal. I got my copy. Also, if you're in the need for another free game scroll down. Either one will get you Half Life: Death Match for free.

Lost Coast is a short demonstration of how they made HL2 including HDR features. (Short game demo basically).

Peggle Extreme is a demo version of Peggle, including characters from VALVe games.

Portal: First Slice is the demo of Portal. We don't really need that now would we?

Add me on Steam if you want to. My ID is Blabity. Just be sure to tell me who you are, also.

poo. I have some shit graphic card so no free half life for moi.

Well once you escape from the burning pit "The cake is a lie" is written on the walls like EVERYWHERE. I found it quite funny :p I also liked the humor of the AI system, that was also quite funny :)

Yeah it was pretty funny :)
(I understood what you meant when I tried the game myself after seeing your comment :P)

I though that's what would happen when I got closer and closer to the end and it got harder and harder :P

Lol yeah that was cool! :D
But after some time it went out of sync with the sound >_<
Oh, and I run steam in Norwegian, so the text was written in Norwegian, but the song was in English :p

The song at the end is weird as fuck.
