Chalk this story up in the category of smart marketing tips. Valve’s original Portal game was an indie favorite that had a lot of fans, just not millions and millions of them. For Portal 2, Valve’s marketing machine has focused on widening the audience for the physics-based shooting game. And it has hit upon a way to target the female audience — or perhaps just the larger community of boot fans —… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : VentureBeat Discovery Date : 12/04/2011 19:23 Number of articles : 4

Chiddy Bang Predict ‘Barbra Streisand’ Could Snag Woodie

Duo’s ‘Opposite of Adults’ up against Duck Sauce for Best Video. By Gil Kaufman Chiddy Bang Photo: C. Brandon/ Redferns There’s no reason Philly alternative hip-hop duo Chiddy Bang should be afraid of a matronly 68-year-old standards singer. But, on the eve of the 2011 Woodie Awards in Austin, Texas, “Chiddy” Anamege and Noah “Xaphoon Jones” Beresin are sweatin’ the competition in the Best Video category thanks to “Barbra Streisand.” The Babs they fear is not, of course, the “Yentl” star herself, but the insanely catchy song that borrows her name from DJ duo Duck Sauce , whose video features cameos from Kanye West, the Roots, Chromeo and Vampire Weekend. “I think the biggest competitor in our category is gonna be ‘Barbra Streisand,’ ” Beresin told MTV News about the video that accompanies the poppy dance track. “That video is crazy. It’s like, ‘Oh man, we’re friends with this famous guy’ … They’ve got so many cameos, and it’s shot really well.” While Bang’s clever clip for the MGMT-sampling “Opposite of Adults” has its own merits, not limited to their cartoonishly gigantic heads, they’ve got plenty of stiff competition in the category from some other stellar clips, as well. They’re up against the Black Keys’ lauded schoolyard beat down in “Tighten Up,” Vampire Weekend’s equally cameo-heavy (Jake Gyllenhaal, Lil Jon, RZA and Joe Jonas) “Giving Up the Gun” tennis throwdown and the Gorillaz’ Bruce Willis-starring desert death race, “Stylo.” In fact, theirs is one of the only clips in that bunch that doesn’t have a marquee cameo, so maybe their lo-fi indie sensibility will win the day after all. Performers at this year’s show, hosted by Donald Glover, include the Foo Fighters, Wiz Khalifa, Odd Future, Sleigh Bells and Two Door Cinema Club. As in previous years, Woodie winners will be determined by fan voting. Voting in most Woodie categories closed Tuesday (March 15), but votes will continue to be counted in the Breaking Woodie category right up until the show. The 2011 mtvU Woodie Awards will air live on MTV, MTV2 and mtvU from the South by Southwest Music Festival in Austin, Texas, on Wednesday, March 16, at midnight ET/PT. Who is your choice for Best Video? Sound off below! Related Artists Chiddy Bang Duck Sauce

Golden Globe Fashion Face-Off: J. Lo vs. JLH

Before Jennifer Lopez can critique American Idol contestants this season, we’re here to judge the singer and her style at last night’s Golden Globe Awards. As she tries to climb back on to the A-list, J. Lo showed up at the event and handed out hardware alongside Alec Baldwin. Jennifer Love Hewitt, meanwhile, was also present because she was actually nominated for a Golden Globe. No, seriously! Alas, she lost out to Claire Danes in the category of Best Actress in a Television Movie. But could JLH make up for that loss with a victory in the following poll? You tell us.

REVIEW: Less Magic, More Brooding in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1

J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter saga began as a series of children’s books and evolved into young-adult ones: The series grew up right in step with that first group of readers, even though, of course, people of all ages continue to love them today. The movies based on those books have offered a concurrent, dovetailing kind of pleasure: The joy of watching young actors grow up on-screen, learning as they go and, quite surprisingly, finding new dimensions in their characters each time out. Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint — as Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley — haven’t become worn out by their roles, as the admittedly older Twilight stars have. Who knows what their post- Harry Potter careers will bring? The body of work they’ve already amassed — up to and including this almost-final installment in the franchise, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 — can stand by itself. Over the years, the magic in their bones has only grown stronger.
