It's a good thing too, because most of you would like to see more Portal. Speaking to Eurogamer, Valve spokesperson Doug Lombardi confirmed that there will be more Portal and, furthermore, it won't simply be "a bunch of new puzzles." When exactly we'll see the next installment of Portal remains a mystery. Also a mystery is exactly what form it will take. At this point, it's unclear if Valve intends to create a full blown sequel or if the company plans to stick to an episodic format in the vein of Half-Life 2. Speaking of Half-Life 2, Lombardi notes that Episode 3 details are still a long way away -- "months not weeks," according to Lombardi. Lombardi also reasserts that Valve wants additional content for its games to be free. That's a good to hear with new Team Fortress 2 content in the pipeline.
Now that we know there will be more Portal, allow us to create a subtitle for the sequel: The Quest for Cake. What would you call it?

I'd call it "Portal 2: Are You Still There?" or "Portal 2: Still Alive"

It is going to be tough to follow it up and have it be as good. Will they just make you another person trapped in there? Maybe a prequel where you can go around leaving messages for Chell? If they tie it in well, they could have it occur when Aperture Science goes down and have you start by watching that Powerpoint presentation while prepping your resume to try and get in at Black Mesa.

I'd love to play Portal in a "real world" environment rather than the test lab. When you broke out of lab tests and into the facility during Portal that was incredible.
