<p>The verdict is in folks, <em>Portal 2</em> is awesome and gamers love it to death but the game is too damn short. I know personally I beat the game in about a day and although I was pleased with myself that I beat the game so quickly a part of me was left needing more. Don&#8217;t me get me wrong, what the game lacked in length it more than made up for with witty humor and an addictive storyline. It turns out I&#8217;m not alone, a lot of gamers have been complaining that the game is a bit short. So, when rumors broke that Valve might be working on a DLC for <em>Portal 2 </em>many gamers like myself got real excited because there&#8217;s nothing better than a DLC to make a game better.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s not an official announcement, but During an interview with <a href="http://www.fastcompany.com/1750003/portal-2-valve-eric-wolpaw-jeep-barnett-doug-lombardi" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fast Company</a>, Valve&#8217;s VP of Marketing spilled the Beans that Valve is working on expansion packs (DLC). The VP was quoted:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>&#8220;We will be announcing some DLC for it, so folks can keep a look out for more content coming this summer. We&#8217;ll be putting more details out about that in a week or so.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</strong></p>
<p>More details should be flooding out in the next couple of weeks. We should also anticipate a more formal announcement and marketing then too. But it looks like we should see a <em>Portal 2</em> DLC hit Xbox 360, PS3, and Steam this summer.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2430" title="Portal_2_610x343" src="https://bagogames.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Portal_2_610x343.jpg" alt="" width="434" height="272" /></p>
<p><em>Portal 2</em> is already being heaped with praise from gamers and critics alike. It&#8217;s received a <a href="http://uk.pc.ign.com/articles/116/1162215p1.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">9.5 rating at IGN</a>, a 9.0 at GameSpot, and it looks like it might be in the running for the coveted <em>Game of the Year</em> award. The release of a DLC only stands to increase the games standing amongst gamers and critics while also increasing it&#8217;s value and quality in the long run.</p>
<p>Details are still short on the contents of the DLC but rumor has it that it will contain new single player content as well as additional Co-Op content. As a huge Valve fan, a Half-Life player, and now a <em>Portal 2</em> convert I can&#8217;t wait for the DLC. Stay tuned for more news.</p>
