Portal goes under puzzle.
TheImpossibleMan

WTF? Seriously? It was just as much about good reflexes as it was about solving the puzzles. You could say Legend of Zelda games are puzzles by that reasoning.

Portal is a single-player first-person action/puzzle video game developed by Valve Corporation.

It's a platformer. I don't care what anyone says. That's platforming.

Stop being a bitch. It won't be a poll option here, but it will (in all likelihood) be one in the forthcoming puzzle games thread. Deal with it.

Shit, Prince of Persia. Talk about a genre-hopper.

Which of the 5 million PoP titles do you mean?
Also, no on God of War.

To Jericho: Not any more than Contra.
So platformers can't have guns? The majority of the game takes place jumping from platform to platform
Archangel

No, I am cool with Contra being considered a platformer, but so should Metroid.

God of war for anything other than PSP I could see, but have you played it on PSP? It's no more than a 3d platformer.
As to your question, the newest PoP, the only one I've played... for PC

No, I am cool with Contra being considered a platformer, but so should Metroid.
