    "The Enrichment Center is required to remind you that the Weighted Companion Cube cannot talk. In the event that it does talk The Enrichment Center asks you to ignore its advice."

    Who here loves this game! <3 <3 <3

    It's one of my favorite games of all time ^.^


    Also to blow your minds...

    Hey, remember when we bumped heads when we first met over certain games?

    I need to restart our antagonistic relationship for this thread at least :dry:

    I just dont see the appeal of portal. I mean I recognize it is well crafted and creative, I just... don't get it, something doesn't click with me on it. Maybe I don't like puzzle/platformers. That's probably the reason why.

    Well, here we are again. It's always SUCH a pleasure…

    Remember when you tried to kill me twice?

    Hahaha, me and my friends usually sing "Still Alive" on long car drives. I've had it memorized for years.

    This was a triumph
    I'm making a note here, huge success
    It's hard to overstate my satisfactionnnnnnnn
    Aperture Science
    We do what we must… Because we can
    For the good of all of us
    EXCEPT THE ONES WHO ARE DEAD

    But there's not sense crying over every mistake
    We just keep on trying 'til we run out of cake
    and the science gets done and we make a new gun for the people who are still aliveeee

    I love puzzle games, but more than that I love the world in general.

    The concept of the Aperture Enrichment Center and GLaDOS themselves I think are what draw me into the game.

    That was my thoughts exactly.

    That's my all time favorite video game song.

    Johnathon Coulton ( the guy who wrote both that song and the Portal 2 song ) is an awesome musician. You should look him up sometime. He's hiliarious and writes all kinds of gamer jams =3


    "There was even going to be a party for you. A big party that all your friends were invited to. I invited your best friend, the Companion Cube. Of course, he couldn't come because you murdered him. All your other friends couldn't come, either, because you don't have any other friends because of how unlikable you are. It says so right here in your personnel file: "Unlikable. Liked by no one. A bitter, unlikable loner, whose passing shall not be mourned. Shall NOT be mourned." That's exactly what it says. Very formal. Very official. It also says you were adopted, so that's funny, too." - GLaDOS

    Omg! I'd play Portal a million and a half times.

    That game is so fun, and I love the way that the game taunts you every step of the way.

    I'm not even angry
    I'm being so sincere right now
    Even though you broke my heart and killed me,
    and tore me to pieces,
    and threw every piece
    into.a.fire
    As they burned I smiled because
    I was so happy for you

    Now these points of data make a beautiful line
    and we're out of beta we're releasing on time
    so I'm glad I got burned,
    think of all the things we learned,
    for the people who are still alive.

    Uh huh. I liked portal 2 better to be honest, I think it had a bit better story. Portal 1 was still awesome though.
