Let's get physical with Quantum Conundrum
If you've yet to have some physics fun with the charming puzzle title Quantum Conundrum, then time to get educated. In this video segment, get a lesson on gravity and how to manipulate it with a little help from Quadrangle Industries (and the IDS Glove, of course). Quantum Conundrum, designed by Portal designer and former Valve employee Kim Swift, is out now on Xbox Live, Steam, and PSN.

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)I don't know... this game just doesn't really do it for me like Portal did. It might be the bigger emphasis on first person platforming and the copious falls that ensue from it, or it could be that I don't find Quadwrangle to be anywhere near as funny or likable as GLaDOS. I own it and have beaten the first area, but it hasn't grabbed me. Kind of regret actually buying it, but I'm still hoping that at some point it'll click and I'll suddenly start enjoying it more. Pity the game was a massive disappointment. Terrible script, unchallenging puzzles and a drab aesthetic. Biggest let down in a long time. Wonderful game. Gorgeous aesthetic, hilarious, satisfying and incredibly fun. Easily in my top 3 games of the year for 2012 thus far. Neat, but I'd rather comment on that backpack story that I read in my rss feed but isn't live anymore. D: I'm enjoying the game, but I'm playing it in dribs and drabs as get some free time with nothing else too compelling to do, whereas both Portal games were an obsession for me and I HAD to beat them. The writing's not as good, most of the jokes in this game fall pretty flat, but I think there real mistake was not having a villain. For me, at least, it totally kills the motivation to keep going. Loving this game. I'm taking my time with it, only paying 2 or 3 rooms at a time. I still haven't gotten the 4th dimension yet. @Tristrix: Hilarious? Really. I admit to not finishing the game but it could barely muster a smile for me. Could you share one of this laugh out loud moments? 10:00 PM on 05.21.2013 Dota 2 breaks own record of most concurrent Steam playersValve's free-to-play, high-skill-ceiling MOBA Dota 2 has set a new record for most concurrent players on Steam, with an impressive 329,977 players at once.
