I don't understand why people would think Portal 1 is better. Because there was less of it? Because the graphics were worse? Because the mechanics were far more limited? Because now they feel that the puzzles are easy? Well no s**t Sherlock, they played the first game, small wonder the first few puzzles are obvious. The later ones cracked my brain just as hard as the ones in the first game.
I mean, I still love Portal 1, but I'm reading some ridiculous stuff around the net. For instance, someone in Ars Technica wrote an article claiming Portal 1 is much superior because it made him feel alone in the game and that was real scary. Um ok dude, whatever rings your bell, but "horror" isn't what I'd use to describe Portal. Suspense maybe, but even then...
Portal 2 is an bigger Portal 1 with an overarching story. More specifically, it doesn't have anything less than the first, so I honestly can't understand the complaints. I guess it's one of those cases where you're damned if you do, damned if you don't.
