Flash version of Portal maps created for real game

without comments

There was a 2d flash version of portal online that I played before the real game was released. Apparently, someone has released maps for the real portal game based off the flash version. I’ve played through the first two levels. It’s fun to be playing portal again.

Find the 2d version of the game as well as the portal map pack for the actual game here.

How to avoid a POW block in Mario Kart Wii

without comments

Was looking up stuff about Mario Kart Wii, trying to find out how to unlock stuff and found out how to not get hit by a POW block. See the Youtube video below.

Just in case the video gets deleted in the future…you avoid the POW by jumping with the drift button right as the third pow hit is disappearing.
