I don't know how this hasn't been reported on, discussed etc...

Valve's Countdown Timer for Portal 2 has ended and the website now points to the following.

www.aperturescience.com/...

Basically if you play any of the games in this list it will move it's progress meter along, get the meter to the end and the timer gets reduced, if all meters are full then Portal 2 is launched.

As with all these promotions, Steam has a deal going for all the games in the list, called the "Potato Sack".

store.steampowered.com/...

You can also get the potato sack in a bundle with Portal 2 pre-order if you haven't gotten that already.

So if you are after Portal 2 RIGHT NOW, get your gaming butts into gear.

For those that just installed it, how much did steam actually download? The full 10-11gb?

You can tell by looking at your download page and checking 'Total Downloaded'.

I did, about a half an hour ago. :P

It said pre-order when I was paying for the game, by the time I come to instal it, it had been released.
