If they make them they won't be good, and even if they're passable they'll never be good enough to please hardcore fans. What'd be great is instead of a straight up portal 3, they 3 player "Co-op" game where 2 players are the robots p body and atlas, and player 3 is glados. Glados can interact with the players by putting up obstacles and messing with the environment and obviously the robots have to complete the levels. Players could make levels with increasingly more detailed level builder tools and can save them to a community pool that anyone can download and alter as they like.
Really, though, these games are givens for movies. Same with Bioshock, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, or any single player adventure game, really. And yes, I know why Bethesda has not sold licenses for movies. I would, however, still very much like to see them. Hopefully they find some time between games to dedicate a department to creating an internal film, or hiring on a great director who will understand that he's only there for vague direction and the name.
Instead, we get arcade movies turned into movies, like Angry Birds, Tetris, and some other one I neither remember nor care about.
does anyone else have issues where vids on this site just crash 3/4 of the way through almost every time ?
Yeah like for a Half-Life movie I wouldn't have Gordon Freeman be the main character, I'd have like Alyx or someone be the main character and have Gordon be this mute war machine that just appears randomly throughout the movie to save the day. Like Alyx is pinned down by the Combine and then the fire just stops and she looks up to see Gordon holding his crowbar over a defeated army. I think it could be fun.
Love to see Portal and Half-Life on the silver screen.
If it happens, hope it is done right.
As long as the Portal movie is written by Valve, I don't see how it could be anything but incredible.
