Hidden/Spoiler:

Chell meets up with Gordon Freeman and Alyx Vance in HL2:EP3. But then again, I think I remember Valve stating that a Portal-HL2 crossover wouldn't happen. Oh well.

Or maybe not

"It has been stated by Gabe Newell in an October 2007 interview that Chell has importance in the overall Half-Life universe, and will eventually have a fairly significant relationship with some of the other characters that we are already familiar with"

That and Portal 2 is like 200 years in the future. So the adventures of Alyx and Freeman would already have happened.

Considering the achievement Ship Overboard,

Maybe. I know the half life wiki has an article about it. Didn't focus read on it though.

I wouldn't take the Chell/Half-life thing too seriously. That was written in 2007, and at that point Portal 2 didn't involve portals, was set in the 1950s, and was about Cave Johnson turning into a robot/losing his humanity, starting a robot uprising, and trying to kill you because of all the Turrets you had unjustly destroyed.

Haha. Really? That's awesome. I'd play that. I saw articles about what Portal 2 was to be, just never read them.

Haha ya. I'm not taking the vague parts of Valve's story telling seriously. It's just fun to talk about and try to see how it fits together. Like the L4D franchise.

Didn't the Borealis involve Time Travel? If it did, then maybe that could explain how they could meet.

No,

On a vaguely off-topic note, this is actually the first thread ever where I've avoided reading the hide tags.

By the way, did you guys get the Final Transmission achievement? It's related to yet another one of those gimmicky radios transmitting a signal, just like in the first Portal ARG, it can be used to produce a SSTV picture, here's the image contained in the signal:

WARNING MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD

Cool.

Is it really that far in the future? I thought I had read somewhere that Portal 2 was between Half Life 1 and 2?

Portal 1 is between the Half Lifes.

What if Portal 2 were an awesome movie?

Want. Want so bad...

They could do it, too, provided they don't focus too much on puzzle solving and more on GLaDOS/Wheatley's dialogue in the chambers.

Yep, saw it on Kotaku, awesome poster.

So basically you are proposing a movie where Wheatley and GLaDOS bicker at each other for a hour and a half while Cave Johnson plays pre-recorded messages?

...

I demand that Twilight Warrior be given a job as a film producer immediately!

I didn't say completely cut Chell out, I just meant do it like the Boots trailer, show some simple action moves inside the chambers while the story plays out. Just don't make it where nothing is really going on except music playing as Chell tried to figure out how to solve each individual chamber.

I think the Co-Op Story would function pretty well as a feature presentation. Atlas and Pebody are very love-able imo.

Awesome. That'd be pretty sweet. I'd go see it. Well since Portal 2 was more story than puzzles it's quite possible.

Have been playing Portal 2 and loving it. The puzzles I've found to be more difficult than Portal 1, and alot of times I found myself overthinking about what to do. Currently going through the gel chambers. Also,

I kind of wish they elaborated more on the Borealis, but can't have everything, I guess. Episode 3 of Half-Life 2 needs to come.

IMO that's actually one of the strongest parts of Portal 1 and 2, not knowing everything, a bit of mystery I guess.
