...Release date is scheduled for April, but who knows when that'll be thanks to Valve Time!

If we pre-order it, do we get a portal gun in TF2?  ;)

No but we get a portal hat.  The top of your head will occasionally appear somewhere else on the map, where it can potentially be sniped.

Kind of expensive for me. I know I'll pick it up eventually when the price inevitably goes down. I still regret pre-ordering L4D2 when it got even cheaper within the month, and I had (and still have) graphics issues with it. I'll probably have graphics issues with Portal 2 too. So I may hold out for the first Steam sale to come along.

Praise valve and their global pricing system. Unlike the publishers of certain other games who seem to think that its ok to double their prices for the australian region.

Fact: your diamond is mine now, sucker!

Also holding off on preordering; being broke and jobless doesn't pay like it used to.

I'm a little... disappointed in the pre-order bonus. I mean, seriously, is there anyone, let alone anyone interested in Portal 2, who doesn't already own Portal?  ::) (Remember, it was free for several days a while back!)

Still, I know I'm gonna be buying this eventually... and it's 10% off... and while waiting for a sale is tempting, I'm certain it'll spawn a half-dozen memes that I'll be clueless about if I don't buy it... and it's Valve...

Wow, 45 bucks.

Could probably wait till it gets to 20 bucks.  Before discounts.

It better be a lot longer than the first one, if they're going to charge $45 for it. 

However, it's enough to sucker me in.  Just gotta check with friends to see if anyone wants to double up for the discount.

I'm holding out - not only do I want a boxed copy for my shelf, but I intend to snag it bundled with the awesome-looking Razer Hydra.
Sadly, none of the retailers in town have even heard of it yet.

$45 is pretty cheap generally. It is supposed to be at least twice as long in the solo campaign  last I heard + there's a co-op campaign now that is an entirely separate entity
