![]() This is by far one of the better tables that Zen Studios has released and any fan of Portal should pick it up right away. My pinball skills might need a little work. There is so much to uncover in this table that good ol’ Cave might actually make an appearance, (since many Portal 2 elements are present) but after playing for a while I never came across him. The only omission that I have noticed is that there are no quotes or assets from Portal 2’s Cave Johnson which by far was one of the funniest things I remember from playing that game. As with their other tables, you get perfect renditions of the characters and settings with an excellent soundtrack that is reminiscent of the original Aperture Science adventures. The graphics are just what you should expect from Zen Studios. Sometimes you can even shoot the ball into open portals and emerge at a different part of the table, so your reflexes will be tested often. ![]() The play field is designed to look exactly like the settings in the Portal games, complete with turrets, companion cubes and even secret alleyways that can open up mini high scoring areas like the Ratman’s chamber. Portal 2’s Wheatley also makes an appearance and provides some fantastic comedy (and some nice jabs) as you play. From the moment you launch the ball, you are thrust back into the world of Portal, with psychotic GLaDOS watching your every flipper move. However, unlike a real table, Zen Pinball can add great animations throughout the table, and the Portal table is no exception. So, Zen Studios has stepped in, and while they haven’t brought another complete Portal experience, they have brought us a fantastic Pinball table based on the franchise!Īs with all Zen Pinball/Pinball FX2 tables, you are guaranteed to get a true to life Pinball experience without having a real table in your house. With Portal 2, the quirky puzzle adventure series came to a close and fans were left wanting more. Portal and its successful sequel are original puzzle games by Valve that challenged players to solve puzzles and traps using Portal technology while being accosted by a homicidal A.I. If you’ve been living under a rock since 2007, you may have never heard of the Portal franchise.
