Portal me out, Scotty!

How does a puzzle-solving game in an FPS environment sound? That’s just what Valve, the makers of Half-Life 1 and 2 have come up with.

This video, which was released a few months ago shows the concept of a “portal” which the player can use to solve seemingly unsurmountable puzzles. To add to the effect is the seemingly comical but eerie, synth female voice narrating the whole thing.

Personally, I am simply awed by the whole thing and can’t wait to lay my hands on it.
