Valve Creates Interactive ‘Super 8′ Trailer As ‘Portal 2′ Extra

With legions of fans waiting to jump back into Chell’s spring heels and pick up an Aperture portal gun, Valve has delivered the goods once again with Portal 2, giving players the level design, puzzles and top-notch script they craved.

Kotaku posted a play-through with a commentary which you can check out beyond the break.
