Actually, one of the unintended functions of GLaDOS' body is psychosis and the urge to perform tests, hence what happened to Wheatley. Notice how Caroline only started to emerge once GLaDOS was inside the potato. According to the official timeline given by Valve, the BYDTWD where all hell...

The timeline is way too vague to make any definite conclusions regarding the relationship between Chell and Caroline; for starters, Portal takes place a few years after the Black Mesa incident, which occured in 200x. The pivotal Bring Your Daughter To Work Day was also in 200x. Chell does not...

I prefer "Want You Gone" as a stand-alone song; it's got a better beat and it's easier to sing along with in the car. "Still Alive" was only really memorable because it was such a shock at the end of the game - honestly, who was expecting GLaDOS to start singing at all, let alone this cute...

In one of the Act 1 test chambers (I forget which number, although I'm positive it's the second chamber with Aerial Faith Plates), GLaDOS clears some garbage out of a cube vent and ends up flinging it across the room at you with said Faith Plates. One of the pieces of trash is a CD, and when you...

Also, re: the very final scene,

The thing that bothers me most about this is actually that the lyrics don't even attempt to fit with the song. If you're going to troll, don't just go halfway!

This actually works beautifully for me - I don't have class on Tuesday but I have to work, so if the game just comes out a few hours earlier that morning I'll have more time to play before I have to go somewhere. -goes back to Audiosurf-

I'm P-Body.

hnnnnng, why must I have to work right after class tonight? I'd be up for a good twelve solid hours of Audiosurf >.> Also, Valve's marketing department = amazing. That is all.

This comic actually made me more excited to play Portal 2, which I didn't think was possible - I love how the art style shifted to represent the changes in Doug's mental state. Also, I kinda-sorta-totally got all misty-eyed at the end. >.> 'Cause there weren't any other interesting, named...

Are you kidding? Somebody has to carry on the noble art of fanfiction.

Did you preorder the two-pack of Portal 2? Each one comes with a free copy of Portal.

And I thought I wanted this game to come out quickly before.... Valve, if you delay this one more time, you're getting a kick in the pants from me. I mean it.

You've never heard of booth babes?

Gordon is 27, although Valve has said repeatedly that the picture in his locker was just an easter egg, and if it had any bearing on the story we're supposed to assume it was a little cousin or something. I don't think they'd suddenly go back on that after all this time.

Want. Now. Thank God this comes out on a day I don't have class; I think I'll get up at midnight and just play straight through until I have to go to work.

This is an excellent, excellent point. I'm in school right now, so I wash dishes at a restaurant to pay my bills. It's not something I want to do forever, obviously - it's a thoroughly crappy job to have - but it's bearable because the people I work with are awesome. No matter what you're doing...

They say that, but I don't think anyone from Valve has ever actually been to Cleveland - on emerging into a normal day there, one doesn't usually find sun shining and birds singing. It should have been cloudy and raining with a homeless guy peeing on the parking booth; THEN I'd believe it was...

Me too. He doesn't afraid of anything.
