Portal

Sure, the entire Orange Box is amazing, but Portal may be one of the most original games ever.  The concept is simply amazing, the dialogue is hilarious, and the whole game is very well put together (it's just too short).  What do you all think?
"I believe every single person is extraordinary. The tragedy is that we
have a society where too many people never get to fulfill that
extraordinary potential. My view – the liberal view – is that
government’s job is to help them to do it. Not to tell people how to
live their lives. But to make their choices possible, to release their
potential, no matter who they are. The way to do that is to take power away from those who hoard it. To challenge vested interests. To break down privilege. To clear out the bottlenecks in our society that block opportunity and block progress. And so give everyone a chance to live the life they want." - Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats and Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom

Portal is probably my favourite game ever, and I haven't even played it.

And that song is awesome.

I've played it a little (I've played the flash game more, admittedly), and I LOVE IT.  And I have "Still Alive" on my iPod...

MP (multiplayer, I assume): No
Free weekends??

Steam makes free weekends sometimes to some games (people who don't have the game can download and play for free in a weekend), when they released the source engine they were more frequent, now I haven't catch any in a while.
