Spoiled! Portal 2

It almost feels wrong highlighting the finale of Portal 2 when the entirety of the game is near perfect. Few of us in the Game Informer offices rushed to discuss the awesome climax right after beating it. Instead we chatted about memorable puzzles along the way, new gameplay mechanics, and Cave Johnson. Especially Cave Johnson. That doesn't mean that the ending of the game isn't worth spoiling for anyone silly enough not to complete it. Even if you did complete it, I present this video of Ben Reeves and I discussing what we thought about the ending in the great outdoors.

Spoiled Alert!

Portal 2's conclusion:

I have to admit, I sorta cried at the end. (Don't question my manliness!)

I love this ending. Probably my favorite game ending of all time.

im loving the talk in the park nice atmosphere

edit: i would also like to add... street comedy!

Are you guys this hard up for material that you're going to spoil the ending for those of us who've yet to finish? Yep =P
by The Pieloving Gamer Thursday, May 05, 2011 at 04:37 PM

I already beat it but it never hurts to see portal 2's epic ending again. And Valve should make a new diffulculty level for geniuses like me. :P

Ben's sense of direction was a little off at the end.

great ending
by DemonGoat Thursday, May 05, 2011 at 04:50 PM

Truly magnificent ending. The turret symphony was surprisingly moving. Could Valve possibly step it up another notch for Portal 3?
by Justin Shelton Thursday, May 05, 2011 at 04:52 PM

lol that was a great ending I still haven't pick this one up I need to though

Me and my friends already are doing "I'm in space. SPAAAAAAAAAC!!!!"

One of my favorite endings to a game in a good while. Compared to Still Alive, I think this song is catchier, but IMO Still Alive was written way better.

Big fan of these Spoiled videos, Ben! (Other Ben too.)

Ok, near the ten minute mark in the finale video...you can see a man in a lab coat running in the background

I just beat Portal 2 a few days ago but I have to say that was one of my favorite endings to a video game I have ever played. The personality sphere in space made me laugh so hard and it was just all around amazing
by javierbmr01 Thursday, May 05, 2011 at 05:11 PM

What actually shocked me during the half and so on of the game...

GLaDOS was been nice.
by j grizzly14 Thursday, May 05, 2011 at 05:11 PM

i lost control of myself when the portal hit the moon
by Alex Stone Thursday, May 05, 2011 at 05:23 PM

I remember feeling emotionally overwhelmed during the ending of Portal 2. The turret symphony was so inconsequential, but it was also somehow incredibly profound. I loved it.

great show, I just beat the game last night so this video was timed perfectly. This was a surprisingly great game, best one I've played in a long time.
