Portal 2 Hints
How can I get the storage cube onto the big red button?
1 of 7: Notice that the cube starts out on a light bridge.
2 of 7: You could go over next to the light bridge and jump up to grab the cube.
3 of 7: Or you could use portals to get onto the bridge.
4 of 7: Put an orange portal on the wall next to the left end of the light bridge, then put a blue portal onto the only portal-friendly wall section that's next to the floor.
5 of 7: Go through the blue portal to get onto the main bridge section, then pick up the cube.
6 of 7: However you get the cube, put it on the big red button to open the exit door.
7 of 7: NOTE: You can optionally use the light bridge to reach a secret area.
