Give Em' Props

I've noticed that in Valve's new game, Portal 2, there is an unnoticed and unpraised character model in the game. Have you noticed that the tall robot in multi-player looks female? I think this is very good for character development of relationships. What I mean is, the two look like a couple, like married. They need to work together to solve each puzzle and communicate amongst themselves. Valve gets major props for doing this and factoring this in. Nice job guys! You can see for yourself in this video: portal 2 tv spot 
Some other relationships are: Gordan Freeman and Alex from Half-Life and the Companion Cube and Shel from Portal.

On a different note; I think I forgot to add Skate 3 to my game reviews list.
Thanks for reading.
