Portal 2 summer DLC is not in summer.

Portal 2 was meant to have some DLC coming out over the summer, but anyone that knows Valve at all will realise they always take forever to do stuff, despite that I'm not going to mention a certain Freeman at all in relation to this matter. Anyway we know have an actual date for Portal 2s DLC update, which will be free for everyone. No matter which platform you have you will be able to get this no matter how skint you may or may not be. It's good to see Valve are sticking to their roots and still updating their games free of charge, which is why we all love you, instead of going along with what is seemingly becoming the norm in over priced map packs in the form of downloadable content. But I won't get into a rant about dlc because frankly it will take to long and I really can't be arsed with it to be honest.

Anyway getting to the point of this post, Portals 2 update will be available from the 4th of October and will be named Peer Review. It will have both single and multi player challenge modes. Valve have stated "You and a friend will continue the story of loyal bots P-Body and Atlas as you puzzle your way through a mysterious new co-op test track and once again match wits with GLaDOS.", Which means more co-op campaign missions. This shall be getting marked on the calender and I will be playing the new content as soon as possible.

Free Portal

So the guys at Valve have announced they are giving away free copies of Portal until the 20th of September. So if you don't have it now I suggest you go download it now. This is to do with their 'Learn With Portals' initiative. Along with this offer of yet another free game, they recently had a bunch of 7th graders on a school field trip at Valve HQ, letting them play about with 'Hammer', Valve's level design program. I am very jealous of these kids, not one field trip I went to at school was anything remotely as cool as this. Watching the video makes me want to break out the old Hammer tool and get back into using it again.
