Aperture Science announced today that its "laurels remain untouched by backsides." In other words, Valve has been working to release more Portal 2 stuff, and the first of it arrives today with part one of the three-part Portal 2 soundtrack. Lucky you, the free download is available now at our sister site, Fileplanet.

The 22 songs are there for the downloading, including such classics hits as, "I Saw a Deer Today," "Comedy Equals Tragedy Plus Time," and "Science is Fun."


"Whether you're a mega-science corporation with decades of test experience, or a young start-up liberating your first test subject from non-testing with a chloroform-soaked rag, Aperture guarantees results," Valve said in a statement. "Wake up your test subject, open the chamber door, and press play -- let Aperture's patent-pending rhythmic compliance enhancers do the rest."

And while you're downloading at Fileplanet, don't forget it's Wallpaper Wednesday. Check out some of the fan-created artwork from the BioShock universe, and then put a little Rapture in your monitor's life.


Sharkey says: I would actually pay for the complete Portal 2 soundtrack. Want You Gone is worth a few bucks on its own. I guess I'll just have to, begrudgingly, download it for free. *Shaking fist at Internets*
