Not really, I&rsquo;m sure, but I&rsquo;ve got one for you anyway &ndash; the game now features 100% more Portal turrets, which experts agree is also a 100% improvement. When it comes to being awesome, it seems Bastion knows no bounds.<\/p>\n<p>The turrets were apparently added in a Steam game update sometime over the weekend, to the enormous delight of everybody, ever. They&rsquo;re available in New Game Plus mode as a new Gel Cannister Secret Skill, described as &ldquo;a viscous substance of unknown origin&#8221;, and found in the Bastion&rsquo;s Arsenal. Using it deploys a laser turret nearby. Fortunately enough, it&rsquo;s not one of those defective ones but don&rsquo;t get too complacent now &ndash; it&rsquo;s probably part of some mad Aperture Science scheme.<\/p>\n<p>For the moment, or maybe forever, the turrets are exclusive to the PC version of Bastion.<\/p>\n<p>See the turrets doing their own special thing in the video below.<\/p>\n<p>\n<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"340\" height=\"209\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/FRFez-ikQYs?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"340\" height=\"209\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/FRFez-ikQYs?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php\/16772-Portal-turrets-spotted-in-Bastion?p=501632#post501632\" target=\"_self\">Discuss Portal turrets found in Bastion<\/a><\/strong><\/span> in the forums<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m different<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13578","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13578","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13578"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13578\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13578"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13578"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13578"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
