Portal 2's Perpetual Testing Initiative Off To A Good Start
Valve's Portal 2 Perpetual Testing Initiative, a set of custom level creation tools for the popular puzzle game, has already proven popular with the game's fan base.
Though it's only been available for a few days, players have already created 35,000 user-created maps. So far, there have been 1.3 million downloads of user-created content. You can browse through user-created Portal 2 puzzle at Steam Workshop.
To keep the momentum rolling, Valve is staging a Weekend Workshop sale, with Portal 2 marked down 66 percent, Skyrim marked down 33 percent, and Team Fortress 2 items on sale for 50 percent off normal prices.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
