Xbox Gaming in South Africa

In the first round of what's sure to be an entertaining marketing campaign, Valve's pushed out a Portal 2 "trailer" cunningly disguised as an un-turn-downable investment opportunity with "up-and-coming applied science company, Aperture Laboratories".

"Portal 2 is the best documentary-style investment opportunity game we've ever contributed to," said Gabe Newell, President of Valve, "and we're confident that savvy investors will immediately see the value in these product demonstration videos."

Portal 2 launches 22 April in South Africa.

In the meantime, then, ladies and gentlemen, introducing panels - the planks of tomorrow!
