Portal 2 is the best of puzzle games mixed with action! Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned If you're thinking about this.just buy it. Game itself won at least half a dozen awards and other industry honors. Unfortunately, puzzle-based nature of the game means that replay value isn't high, but this is seriously one of the best games out there for PS3, one that adults and kids can enjoy. Has a two player co-operative mode that in and of itself is a pretty great game too. Small kids won't be able to play it (puzzles too hard for them) but they might enjoy watching it. No gore, graphic violence, sexual content, etc. Although there are a few points where having some skill with a controller is necessary, there aren't many, and the game is much more conceptual/cerebral than 'reflex based'. The game superficially looks like a first person shooter game, but its actually a physics-based puzzle game with a unique in game mechanic. It will help with perspective of the story and understanding the game mechanics, but you don't need to know anything about the first game (or have played it), to enjoy this, by the way. more challenges, more game mechanics, and just a much longer game in terms of play time overall. More characters, expanded (and interesting) story. Takes everything great from the original Portal game from 2007, expands it, and makes it better.
