Well, I've had to go for the XBox 360 version of the game as my MBP struggles to play Portal 1 with low settings :(

Has anyone bought it yet? (Nick)

What are your impressions so far? Hopefully I'll get an advance delivery of my order from HMV. It says ready to dispatch so just waiting for it to be released.

I've got it on order, should arrive Thursday. PS3 version, which means I'l get the mac version for free :). If you guys fancy any co-op wormhole shenanigens, I'm 'jonbwfc' both on Steam and on PSN. Sadly, no co-op with the 360 version :(.

This site seems to say it has both online and offline co-op.

Sorry, I should have been more explicit.

The 360 version does have co-op but only with other 360 users via Xbox Live or split screen. The PS3, PC and Mac versions can co-op together, because Steam is available on all three platforms. E.G. I can play Portal 2 co-op on my PS3 with my mate who may be playing on his PC - in fact, allegedly, it's impossible to tell which platform someone is playing on - but I can't play on my PS3 with anyone who has portal 2 on the 360.

I should probably have phrased it 'Sadly, no co-op for me with the 360 version'.

Most online retailers time their deliveries so they arrive the same day as the game is available in the shops. That's tomorrow. Some places have broken the street date though after it went on sale on Steam on Tuesday.

It may arrive on Saturday but it'll come to work so I'll have to come pick it up if I want to play.
