    Half Life 2 Weapons In Portal

    hl2p.jpgEveryone I've spoken to has at least liked Portal if not absolutely loved it and spent several minutes raving about it. However, the most common complaint appears to be the length of the game. Granted, you can always go back and play it again, and many of us have, but it just never has that new game feeling.

    While I can't make Portal longer, I can at least provide a way to get back a little of the fun of playing a new game. That is if you're a PC gamer, those of us playing Portal on the console are out of luck.

    A total genius at Instructables has posted directions for equipping the Half Life 2 weapon set in Portal. Yes coming up with clever solutions to your droid problem was fun, but a gravity gun can be just as fun, especially when you're not supposed to have it. As I previously mentioned I'm not a PC gamer so this remains untested, report in with your results and pictures of gravity gun captured cake.
