Okay, this is the coolest FPS ever. Period. Even if it's not a full game.

Here's how it works: You have a gun that creates portals on walls and floors. When you shoot the first one, you create an entrance. The second one is the exit. This could make for some very interesting puzzles. For example, if you're standing up on a ledge, you could shoot a portal at the ground and shoot one at the wall behind you. Jump into the ground portal to shoot out of the wall, with the momentum from your fall. And it's not just you who can enter the portals, anything can. So if you need to grab an item from across a bottomless pit, shoot a portal right under what you need, and make it drop straight in front of you from the ceiling.

This isn't a full game, it's just a mini-game in Half-Life 2 to demonstrate a new weapon, but it'd make a great game. 'Tis a shame Half-Life's only coming out for PC, Xbox 360, and P$3. :( It would be a perfect Wii game. Think of the multiplayer!!

EDIT: I just read that it will be included with Half-Life. It's not just a mini-game, but that's still the only way you can get it. <_< Grr...
