Valve Announces Portal 3
Yep. It took three years of nonstop demand, but it's finally happening. Valve has announced their latest title, which will be the Portal 3 we've all been wanting.
Personally, I'm genuinely intrigued by what they're doing with the story this time around. In a nutshell, Portal 3 will be set about a century after the events of Portal 2, and will feature a cast consisting almost entirely of new characters (with GLADoS possibly returning; Knock on wood!), and a completely different facility as the main setting.
Here's the official announcement.
Discuss!!!
I need a shot again, that sweet adrenaline.

stolen fromIn photography, the term 'f-stop' refers to the size of the aperture. The larger the f-stop is (f/1, f/2, f/4 etc...) the smaller the 'hole' through which light can pass, essentially regulating how bright the resulting image is, so larger f-stops would result in a darker image. The reason for this is that the number next to the f refers to the diameter of the aperture - think of the aperture as a ring around the 'hole' in the camera; the larger the number, the thicker the ring. However, a lower f-stop will also result in a lower depth of field (how much of the image is in focus).
I doubt that this will shed much light (hah) on the topic though. It's probably a code name chosen for its relevance to the word aperture, but I thought it was worth saying.
