Portal iPhone port gets caught on video
Featured in the above video is what looks to be an iPhone port of the popular Source-based puzzler, Portal. As you can see, the controls look a bit difficult to master but the same could be said for many other iPhone titles on the market.
While the above video may be fake, the iPhone (especially with the 3GS’ updated processor) could definitely handle the graphics rendering said video features.
I for one would love to give this game a go, let’s hope Valve makes note of this and considers an iPhone port.

LBP Developers Were Working on Portal-like Game
In today’s first bit of surprising news, LittleBigPlanet developer Media Molecule revealed that they were working on a game described as “more Portally than Portal” and “Portal, but with scale factor.”
Apparently, the company even met with Valve, which suggested the two work on the game together.
"We were very tempted," said studio co-founder Alex Evans. "But in the end we decided to talk to Sony and they just got the game at the beginning."
Portal was developed by Valve and offered as part of the Orange Box compilation. It was inspired by Narbacular Drop, an indie game from 2005, the creators of which now work at Valve.
LittleBigPlanet is due out exclusively on the PS3 later this month.
Rock Band Is “Still Alive”
You may have heard of the Halo theme remix, available as Guitar Hero III download content. Rock Band, despite having new content made available regularly, still has no iconic game theme for players to purchase. Fortunately, that is going to change in the near future, and I don’t think they could have picked a better song. At some unknown point in the near future, the Portal credit theme, Still Alive will be made available for download. Not only that, but if you download “Still Alive” you will get a free cake. It’s true! In all seriousness though, I couldn’t imagine playing this song using any instrument other than the microphone.
