The Cake is a lie.. or is it?
This was one of my favorite games and well-worth $8. The theme-song (sung by the evil computer, GLadOS) at the end of the game is one of the best game-endings of all time.
However, if you're a gamer you might be better off buying the Orange Box which includes this and four other great games. You can usually find it for around $20 or less.
@kitlemmonds: Does the Orange Box for Xbox have the Still Alive version of Portal?
No, the Orange Box version lacks some of the extras on the Still Alive version.
What is the Still Alive version?
@viciousspike: Let me help you with that
@arevan: Thank you so much. By the way, what's this 'google' thing? Can I download it with my wifi's?
@viciousspike: You need the bigger GeeBees to use your wy fys.
In for one!
WOOT WOOT! In for one
@kitlemmonds: I'd say if anyone considers himself/herself a gamer, he/she has already played Portal and is at least aware of Orange Box. Of course a real gamer would be playing this on PC...
Anyway, I'm just kidding. That's great info for anyone who doesn't know, and everyone should experience Portal. The sequel's due out soon.
@silentcatalyst: Yeah - and a REAL gamer would pay the extra $10 bucks for 4 more games...

$19.99 :D
@drchops: A real game would already own the Orange box and download this for the extra levels.
@segafanalways: A real gamer plays on PC.
I'm tempted. I already have played the hell out of the Orange Box version. I have 400 MSP already on my account but don't want to spend any money...
a real gamer makes their parents purchase over-priced games for them. since that is not me, i'm in for one!
@viciousspike: A real gamer plays on an NES.
@segafanalways: This has extra levels? How many?
@drchops: It has 14 new levels. Everything that I have read on it says there is no story connected to them but they are said to be fun levels anyways.
@mokel22: A real gammer uses a Magnavox Odyssey
A real gamer plays tic-tac-toe, in the dirt, using sticks.
@scottyanimal: touche
@smorloc: as others have commented, no. The Orange Box was packaged before the still alive version was offered on xbox arcade. However, still alive does not contain any additional story-related levels (just some new challenges, achievements, and a port of a few levels from Portal: The Flash Version). See http://www.gamesetwatch.com/2008/07/portal_still_alive_explained_1.php for details.
I would not be terribly surprised if these additional levels were available in Portal 2, as Valve has a history of giving unexpected bonus material.
