I'd like to express agreement here. I'm sure it's been said a million times, but hassling people for grammar on a forum is really pathetic, especially when the post in question still clearly communicated its point.
I used to post regularly, even obsessively, on a number of forums. As each of...
I did exactly that during my just-before-orange-box-release-playthrough, though I didn't try to get them into the teleporter at the end. From memory, I think I brought one turret all that way on my first playthrough too... Something with unlimited ammo just seemed too good to waste!
As I was playing through Portal the first time, my first thought when GLaDOS started glitching was "Wow, I might be stuck in some testing lab within the citadel, right as Gordon is starting to tear the place up."
I was almost a little disappointed that that wasn't the case, though it will be...

What I think it demonstrates is that the Aperture Science researchers had their own projects that they wanted to develop, and would attempt to obtain government funding for them under false pretenses. In this case, they used their "ice inhibitor" budget to fund research and development of a...
Whose government? :p See, there has to be a species of origin, and it makes sense that this species would need to stay in control, in order for the collective combine forces to work in coordination towards singular objectives (which clearly do not serve the purposes of the various species within...
The G-man is basically saying that he is responsible for your survival, and now in return, he's asking you another favor. He's likely presenting this reasoning for his own amusement, as he seems to be quite able to do more or less whatever he wants with you. He simply enjoys reminding you that...
What we do know is that the advisors are members of the actual combine species. They are therefore almost certainly leaders in relation to the combine troops, but we know nothing about the hierarchy within the species itself, or whether there even is a hierarchy. There may be greater or more...
