I know this doesnt belong here but deal with me and help out a large number of people. You WILL need Steam to help out in some way.

If you own ANY of these games PLEASE download them again and start them up (that is the only way for the system to count who owns the game and thus decrasing the release time)
HOWEVER if you dont own any of the games and/or steam PLEASE sign up for an account... you can still help out! Join the steam group NELIPOT ( you will get a potato next to your account profile page... it also decreases the time for release!)
Thanks everyone, I think its pretty cool that Valve is doing this. Also, post if you are getting Portal 2.
EDIT: You can get MORE potatos in games to further decrease the time, objectives can be found here. Also another site for more info.

AS FAR AS I KNOW, YOU NEED TO DO ONE OF THESE OBJECTIVES TO GET THE POWER UP. Still looking up info.
EDIT 2 : It is believed that only time played on these games counts towards the energy. Potatos multiply that energy by however long you play. So get to playin!
