''Portal: Still Alive'' is a Xbox 360 Live Arcade port of ''Portal'', containing additional content in the form of new advanced chambers, inspired by [[Portal: The Flash version]], with no additional story material.

{{Spoiler|Following the events of ''[[Portal 2: Lab Rat]]'', Chell is awoken 50 days later in her relaxation chamber, which has the appearance of a motel room, for a 'mandatory physical and mental wellness exercise'. After a brief 'exercise', Chell returns to her sleep. She is awoken an undetermined amount of time later (a pre-recorded message says "Hello, you have been asleep for - NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE NINE NI - days."), to the room intercom warning of an imminent core explosion. Her room is in a state of disrepair, and soon, an unfamiliar voice greets her.  Upon opening the door she finds herself face to face with a [[Personality Core]] who introduces himself as [[Wheatley]], the jovial AI in charge of the test subjects storage facility. After warning Chell of the likelihood of her having serious brain damage, Wheatley moves her relaxation chamber through the storage facility, crashing several times and almost destroying the room, all the while ranting about the huge responsibility of taking care of the test subjects. After successfully navigating the room to the main facility, Wheatley instructs Chell to go retrieve the [[Handheld Portal Device]], as it will be needed for their escape from the facility. Upon successfully acquiring the device, Wheatley and Chell make their way to GLaDOS' chamber where Wheatley claims an escape pod to the surface is located. They find the chamber partially destroyed, with overgrown wildlife everywhere, and in the middle of the chamber lies the lifeless body of GLaDOS. Navigating to the breaker room under the chamber, Wheatley attempts to find the breaker for the lift. In the process, he inadvertently reboots GLaDOS. Bitter at the cause of her death, she crushes Wheatley and tosses him away before dropping Chell into the [[Emergency Intelligence Incinerator]], into the incinerator room. GLaDOS instructs Chell to retrieve the dual-portal Handheld Portal Device, before guiding her back into the facility's test chambers. Fixing the broken down facility while Chell is once again put through testing, GLaDOS, bitter at her murder, informs Chell that her {{W|Flight recorder|black box}} forced her to relive her own murder again and again for thirty millennia.}}

{{Spoiler|Along the way, they pass a 'potato power' exhibition, held on the ill-fated 'Bring your daughter to work day'. While making their way through the [[Turret]] production facility, Wheatley reveals he plans to sabotage the Turrets and neurotoxin supply so that when they face GLaDOS she will be unarmed. They successfully carry out their plan by replacing the master Turret template with a [[Defective Turrets|Defective Turret]] and use [[portals]] to redirect a [[Thermal Discouragement Beam]] to cut off the neurotoxin supply lines. Hopeful, they make their way to GLaDOS' chamber once again for a showdown. GLaDOS, once again, attempts to kill Chell but is unsuccessful due to Wheatley's and Chell's sabotage. It is at this point that the [[Announcer]] informs them that the central core, GLaDOS, is 80% corrupt and because Wheatley is present, a core transfer is initialized. This requires both cores' approval, and when GLaDOS objects, a stalemate is reached. The Announcer informs them that a stalemate associate is required to press a stalemate resolution button for the core transfer to occur. GLaDOS desperately attempts to block Chell from doing so, but is unsuccessful, and the core transfer occurs. Wheatley is transferred into GLaDOS' body and she is removed from power. In jubilant mood, Wheatley sends Chell on her way to the surface. He begins laughing, but it becomes unusually powerful for Wheatley. He lowers Chell back down, going on about how he did it. GLaDOS taunts him, telling him that Chell did all the work, and in a fit of rage, he takes her core apart and places her in a potato battery. He tells Chell that he is the boss now, and that she can no longer order him around. "POTaTOS" is then shown off; Wheatley's attempt to humiliate her. It is at this point GLaDOS reveals that Wheatley was designed to be a moron, in order to dampen GLaDOS' brainpower so that she wouldn't attempt to murder everyone in the facility. Angered by this revelation, Wheatley throws her in the lift with Chell and in a fit of rage smashes the lift downwards, where the lift floor collapses, and they fall deep into the depths of the facility.}}
