"Despite the fact that Portal 2 is racking up some of the best reviews so far in 2011, it seems that the user community that has purchased the game so far isn’t exactly happy with one aspect of the release. The grumbling is coming from the pay downloadable content that Valve has released in conjunction with the game. Normally, players don’t have problems with at least some DLC being made available on day one, but Valve has stepped into a new realm with the developer releasing $80 worth of downloadable content with the game. Many players are wondering why more of this content didn’t make it into the actual game that they already have paid $60 for. (We have to admit that this is a fair question!)"

Money money and more money.... People will eventually get sick of these tactics! Wait, most are because they find other ways to not pay for games :/ Make PC game pricing like tablet pricing, fair and affordable.

It's a great game, but a little short.
