Many would agree, Portal and Portal 2 are very unique games, and very enjoyable at that. The game-play is completely different and enjoyable (who wouldn't want a portal gun?!), the enemies are incredibly enjoyable, and the music made by Valve for it and inspired by Portal is very enjoyable as well. Discuss Portal and Portal 2 here!

Respect everyone's opinion here!

Conversation Starters:
- Who's better: Cave Johnson, Wheatley or GLaDOS?

Be aware: There may be spoilers ahead.

Enjoy. Then continue testing.
Today I found the Turret Wife serenade thing in Test chamber 16.

I like GLaDOS.
I finished the game like 2-3 times.

I'm a follower of GLaDOS, so I cannot say anything about liking the cores .

I absolutely LOVE the song; More Reconstructing Science is my favorite.

I have Portal 2, but I don't have Portal 1. I have the P2 Soundtrack (I mostly bought it for the TF2 Ap-Sap, but I wouldn't spend $12 on music I didn't even like. ), and Science is Fun my favorite song.

Nah, I'm stuck in my old ways of ‘absolutely no help whatsoever or I have not truly finished the game’. Thanks, though! And love the sig.

I did something that I should not have done when I first played: Looked up the answers.
If I didn't do that I would still be in like the Reunion. It is a BAD idea to look up the answers.
1. GLaDOS overruns all. Like the Joker in a game of War
2. “Nap Time”
3. Tough choice: Wheatly is moving the test chamber closer to his lair. Wheatley: Ah! Maybe being closer to the testing will give more science! Potatos: It won't. W:What? P:Nothing,.
4. Turret Wife Seranade For The Win. Also breaking Wheately Screens!
5. Finished it about 5-12 times.

The serenade isn't an easter egg, it's right at the end of the game for everyone to see.

No, not that. A test chamber in chapter 3 is somewhere that you can go through and see the Turret Wife Serenade, Also a Ratman den.

Uh, what is this about testing?
Uh, maybe because it's the main point of Aperture Science?
Still Alive:
This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
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 no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.
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 it hurt 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.
Go ahead and leave me.
I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa
THAT WAS A JOKE.
HAHA. FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great.
It's so delicious and moist.
Look at me still talking
when there's Science to do.
When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run.
There is research to be done.
On the people who are still alive.
And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing Science and I'm still alive.
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.

Want You Gone:
Well here we are again,
It’s always such a pleasure,
Remember when you tried to kill me twice?
Oh, how we laughed and laughed,
Except I wasn’t laughing,
Under the circumstances I’ve been shockingly nice.

You want your freedom take it,
That’s what I’m counting on,
I used to want you dead but,
Now I only want you gone.

She was a lot like you,
(Maybe not quite as heavy),
Now little Caroline is in here too.
One day they woke me up,
So I could live forever,
It’s such a shame the same will never happen to you.

You’ve got your short, sad life left,
That’s what I’m counting on,
I’ll let you get right to it,
Now I only want you gone.

Goodbye, my only friend,
Oh, did you think I meant you?
That would be funny if it weren’t so sad,
Well you have been replaced,
I don’t need anyone now,
When I delete you maybe I’ll stop feeling so bad.

Go make some new disaster,
That’s what I’m counting on,
You’re someone else’s problem,
Now I only want you gone,
Now I only want you gone,
Now I only want you gone.

These are some of my favorite songs! Portal and Portal 2 FTW! I beat it 3-5 times (Portal 2). I am still working on the Portal campaign (75% Done).


My Server
Can someone tell me how to make a signature? I need to know!
Imma do this too.

- Who's better: Cave Johnson, Wheatley or GLaDOS: GLaDOS FTW!
- Favorite turret phrases (defective as well): “Uh, BLAM! BLAM-BLUH-BLAM!” “I'm on fire!!” “This is my time to shine!” “Ugh, you saved my bacon!”
- Favorite quotes: *with an accent* Wheatley: “She can't hear me with this accent!” … GLaDOS: “I can still hear you, sphere.”, GLaDOS: “I made a list of bad things you've done. Well, making, because you're still doing bad things.”, Announcer: “Replacement core, are you ready?” Wheatley: “YES!” Announcer: “Corrupted core, are you ready?” GLaDOS: “NO!” Wheatley: “Yes! She said yes!”
- Easter eggs: I found one in one of the test chambers (can't remember) where you can go into a room with drawings of Turrets on the walls and like 50 coffee cups and some boxes. You can pick up the coffee cups I found. Once you leave, though, the entrance to that room is sealed.
- How far have you gotten: Stuck in 70's Aperture with no way out in sight.

@megamastergamer – on the main forums thing, there should be something towards the bottom about editing a signature.
This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here:
Bump this topic.
It's hard to overstate
the lameness
of this joke.

XD I've got nothin'.

I can't blame you. Chapter 7 is the hardest chapter in the whole game.

I'm Speaking in an accent that is beyond her range of hearing! GLaDOS: Look metal ball, I CAN hear you. Wheatley: No need to do the voice, RUN!

1. Wheatley
2. “You messed with the wrong turret.” (Defective)
3. “Now you've been under for… quite a lot longer, and it's not out of the question that you might have a very minor case of serious brain damage.”
4. The Rattman den in the first Faith Plate stage is cool.
5. Beat the single-player, but I'm looking for someone to play multiplayer with.

I like GLaDOS a lot, and she's very funny and sarcastic, but I have to give it up to Wheatley, because it was always so funny to see him try to fix everything, and he couldn't. One of my favorites is when Wheatley is trying to shut off the neurotoxin by hacking into the computer. He eventually starts to bribe the computer terminal, that's how bad it gets. (Ok, lets see what we have here, that's the first step in hacking, taking inventory. Hmm, we have a computer, a screen, yeah that looks like a screen, and a rectangle thing. (keyboard))
I've played beaten both portal games, as well as co-op, great game.

At least you think GLaDOS is awesome. Yeah, I like that part, as well as when Chell switches out the good turret for the defective one in the turret manufacturing thingy.

Okay, poll:

Who would you want to win for President and Vice; GLaDOS, Wheats, a defective turret, Starscream or Space Core?

My vote is Starscream with VP Space Core. :3
