Lets mark February 14th on our calenders; for the time being

[DEATH eVADER]

For those of you who have a copy of PCGAMER UK, you may already of noticed the small inspirational art piece on the back page. Its basically the Salvador Dali painting, but portalised (all the melting clocks have been replaced with melting portals), with the turrets, the portal gun, and the Cake.

It also has the small print at the top corner, simply stating "It's all over....Until Thursday, February 14."

All's hoping will get our first slice of the cake :bounce:

[Escaep]

Thats also Valentines Day. Portal+Valentines day= Speculating it has something to do with the Companion Cube..

 

[Iron_cube]

More metal_box.mdl nonsense.

 

[Asknoone]

Awesome.

 

[Avoidist]

This had better be good. And by good I mean worth the media silence (or whispering at best) good.

 

[Druckles]

Portal day...??

Wutt??

 

[Omnomnick]

???? Companion cube maybe ????

 

[Lobster]

PC Gamer usually does an offbeat image at the end, In the valve issue from last year with the orange box previews, It had an image of an original Doom cacodemon sliced in half inside a glass case, like that artist did with the cow.

 

[Druckles]

Maybe they'll be giving away free Weighted Companion Cubes for Valentines Day?

 

[Blackthorn]

My prediction is the first Source update of new levels.

You saw it here first.

 

[kupocake]

Very busy that week. Hope they push it back so the rest of you have to suffer with me.

[DEATH eVADER]

Source update of new levels.

What kind of update?

 

[Blackthorn]

A pack of new levels. In the bonus maps or something.

*fuels the fire*

 

[Omnomnick]

Free companion cubes seems plausable, but I think it might be the release date of the TF2 stuff, as a way for Valve to keep it's customers inside on the computer instead of going out with their gf/bf....

 

[DEATH eVADER]

A multiplayer version of Portal

 

[Druckles]

A multiplayer version of No.

So now I'm extremely excited for Valentine's Day despite being a lonely lonely little girl.

And it's because of... a video game?!

I AM THE BIGGEST NERD IN THE ENTIRE WORLD

srsly

This. Except the fact that I'm not a girl.

 

[corpulent]

This. Except the fact that I'm not a girl.

Bah, V-Day is overrated anyway. Better to be excited over a video game.

 

[simonjedi]

Pcgamer usually have a funny back page 14th febuary is when the next issues out, nothing portal related

[Blackthorn]

Well at least it's given me a reason to give a shit about that mother of all non-holidays.[/bitter]

 

[kupocake]

This. Except the fact that I'm not a girl.

Of course you're not. This is the Internet.

 

[ríomhaire]

Hahaha. Deja vu.









Damn you PC Gamer! Stop giving false hope!

 

[Emporius]

Bah, V-Day is overrated anyway. Better to be excited over a video game.

aaaaaawww, is somebody ronery?

 

[Narvi]

I have fun on Valentine's Day...

It's the best time to go out with your single friends and cry your eyes out.

 

[Avoidist]

Hahaha. Deja vu.









Damn you PC Gamer! Stop giving false hope!

!@#$ING !%@^&$&$ PIECE OF ^%$^ $^$#BAG %^$# @@%^&&$% SQUIRREL!

I was so looking forward to something good happening for once. Oh well, there's always the TF2 Updates coming in July.

To the Theatre? Yes, I think to the Theatre.

 

[Narvi]

To the Theatre? Yes, I think to the Theatre.

And afterwards, warm coffee, and poetry recitals. :bonce:

 

[kupocake]

And afterwards, warm coffee, and poetry recitals. :bonce:

Oh come on, we're not completely pretentious. I'll settle for Hot Chocolate.

 

[Narvi]

Oh come on, we're not completely pretentious. I'll settle for Hot Chocolate.

Truth be told I prefer tea to coffee.

But Hot Chocolate is excellent in any clime. Tropical, brisk, wintery... it is the perfect drink for any situation, truly.

You don't live in Australia, do you?

 

[Narvi]

You don't live in Australia, do you?

Nope. Look a bit more in the west direction.

 

[Pinkle]

So is there a pic of this online anywhere? Even if it's a fake ad, it still sounds neat. I wanna see!

 

[MattyDienhoff]

Wait, what? It said "It's all over... until February 14th." and now the theory is that some special release from Valve will come on the 14th?

It says "It's all over... until #" at the end of every PCG issue, February 14th is the date of the next issue, no doubt.

**** pc gamer, what a ****ing dissapointment, ****

 

[Avoidist]

**** pc gamer, what a ****ing dissapointment, ****

I think this just proves we're in serious need of something from Valve. By contrast to Episode 1 < time < Orange Box, this has been a media dead silence for almost 4 months.

Is a screenshot really so hard? How about a little concept art? No? An interview perhaps? A dead squirrel? Yes, I'm sure we'll like a dead squirrel. No, no, it sounds good. Trust me.

 

[Flammable D]

**** pc gamer, what a ****ing dissapointment, ****

What, cause someone stupidly misinterpreted it?

I'll try scan it later, it's a fun image even though it does mean nothing

They're keeping media silence because there was a difference between released videos and the released game.

That cake looks delicious and moist.
