Portal 2 E3 Demo Video Part 1 - 'Wheatley'

I could go on and on introducing this E3 video of Portal 2 and the introduction of the lovable Wheatley, but that would just be more words between you and the video itself.

The video was played behind closed doors at E3 2010. There should be more on the way. British accents make everything better.

Developed by Valve Software, Portal 2 is scheduled to release simultaneously on PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Mac sometime during 2011.

Just FYI: We know that the voice is Richard Lord, Valve animator, but it was meant to be a placeholder for E3. However, word is that there's a strong backing of Lord's voice to get Valve to keep it in there.

I'm hoping that voiceover is temporary, and that if it is, they somehow rope Bill Bailey into doing it.

i'm excite! for one reason alone:

All valve's first incarnations (exception: HL1) are decent games, with all valve sequels being solid gold.

This sounds like Noel Fielding(Vince Noir from The Mighty Boosh). Didn't dare watch more than half though, seemed too spoiler-ripe!

Shacknews. I'd like to request the ability to both cache the videos and/ or skip ahead to any point in the video. It takes me so long to download them and then I'll navigate away from the page for a second and have to re-download the entire thing just to watch 20 seconds at the end. sigh*
