In general, the icon for a spoiler review would be cool to have a cake outline, referencing "The Cake is a Lie", which in and of itself is so overly famous everyone knows it, kinda like the Darth Vader head icon over on LB.

Another option could be a Sephiroth head outline from FF7, but I felt that spoiler a little more obscure despite the game's fame.
Portal

+ Portal 2
- Stars are replaced with pink hearts, referencing the companion cube

- In your logs page for Portal 1 or 2, hover your mouse over the text for the game title. The "O" in the title will become uppercase [and turn blue for P1 / turn orange for P2]. Click on it to be teleported to the page for the other Portal game respectively.
