Get Portal For Free On Steam

I hadn't played portal yet. I know I KNOW, shame on me. I took the opportunity to download and play it now. I didn't buy the orange box since I had bought HL2 and TF2 separately.

Anyway, wow, amazing game.
 
I bought Orange Box to get Half Life 2 Episode 2, Team Fortress 2 and Portal. I feel like im forgetting something though.
But I sold the extra copies of Half Life 2 and Half Life 2 Episode 1 to a friend as the agreement for me getting HL2EP2 and Portal :)

Anyways - excellnt game. Must be played. Ive spoken to many people though sayings its boring, but then they also told me Mirrors Edge is boring. "No need to use guns etc".. I tell them thats not the point. Whatever...
 
Went straight out and grabbed it. Luckily work unknowingly sponsored some of the bandwidth for the download.
 
I grabbed it from Steam myself. Strangely enough, though, it was downloading at like almost double my line speed. Am I missing something when it comes to downloading from Steam on an MWeb line, or was Steam just lying about the speed? Strange, though, that I managed to grab like 3 gigs overnight on a 512Kbps line.
 
When finished with the very short Portal game, and you want more, you should try Portal Prelude. I really enjoyed all the new levels, and wow some of them are really hard, it was very enjoyable... as far as I can remember it was 23-25 levels.

Portal Prelude download
Portal: Prelude, as its name states it, is an unofficial prequel to the game Portal. Its story revolves around the pre-GlaDOS epoch, even before she was plugged in. At this time, test subjects were monitored by real Aperture Science employees whose work was tedious, lengthy and repetitive. This is why they decided to build a great artificial intelligence that could both replace them in these difficult tasks, but also take responsibility for many other tasks within the complex and compete with Black Mesa's superiority. All employees of the Aperture Science complex are now eagerly awaiting GlaDOS. Maybe even a little too eagerly, as the upcoming events will tell...
