Is Portal 2 releasing early? UPDATE: Not quite

We’ll know in ten minutes. Valve-owned website, Aperturescience.com, has been running a countdown for the last fifteen or so hours.  It concludes in ten minutes, the theoretical end of a weird, always changing and twisting ARG campaign that started with the Steam sold “Potato Sack” pack of indie games.  Over the last week, the games have all received some variation of Portal content. Additional messages have popped up, some of which point to the equivalent of Friday being the new Tuesday.

Guess we’ll know within the next ten minutes.

UPDATE:  Turns out the ARG is concluded.  Now people need to play the Potato Sack games to unlock Portal 2 early.  What are you waiting for?

    (meaning, while all the added content to the games was coo, the grinding from Friday til now has been dull as hell, whether you’re playing or observing)
