    The 'Portal: Prelude' mod and expansion pack is now available to 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.

    I downloaded and installed this.

    My first port of call is to say to anyone who struggled with the Advanced Maps included with the original Portal do not bother with this, the levels are extreme and require a lot of creative thinking.

    The voice acting in the game is terrible though, its made by a French man that instead of asking a couple of english speaking friends to help out, decided to use Text to Speak which makes all the jokes and conversations in the game suck.

    But at the end, you are rewarded with a fantastic ending, learning more about Apreture Science. Well worth it for those of you who need more Portal action.
