First person shooter game Portal 2 will soon be available for the Mac apart from Xbox 360 and PC platforms, as Game Informer magazine reports. Portal 2 is a sequel to the first Portal game that was released in 2007 as a part of the Orange Box compilation of Valve's games for Xbox 360 and PC. Portal is a physics-centric game in which player has to create two teleporting portal entrances to solve several puzzles.
Reports also indicate that Valve's Steam digital games distribution service might accommodate the Mac and iPhone platform. More information on the same is anticipated at Game Developers Conference starting tomorrow. Steam has its own set of tools meant for anti-piracy concerns. Many iPhone apps get cracked and pirated over the web. If Steam's tool set does wonders, it would be a good situation for Apple as it can bring most popular titles on Mac and iPhone OS platforms with a security backup. Also, it will motivate many small time iPhone game developers to make best of Steamworks 2009 tool kit.
