Completing Portal

Kold

Unbelievable game. Possibly the best game ending ever?

ShaneU

Kold

Yup yup. Just sat in awe. Her bitching was pretty entertaining too.

2 plus two is *gzzzzzzzzzk* 10 ... in base 4. I'm fine.

My favourite quotes from Portal:

"The experiment is nearing its conclusion. The Enrichment Center is required to
remind you that you will be baked, and then there will be cake."

"I wouldn't bother with that thing. My guess is that touching it will just make
your life even worse somehow. I don't want to tell you your business, but if it
were me I'd leave that thing alone. Do you think I'm trying to trick you with
reverse psychology? I mean, seriously now. Okay, fine, DO touch it. Pick it up,
and just stuff it back into me. Let's be honest. Neither one of us knows what
that thing does. Just put it in the corner, and I'll deal with it later. That
thing is probably some kind of raw sewage container. Go ahead and rub your face
all over it. Maybe you should marry that thing since you love it so much! Do
you want to marry it? WELL I WON'T LET YOU! How does that feel? Have I lied to
you? I mean, in this room? Trust me. Leave that thing alone. I am being serious
now. That crazy thing is not part of any test protocol. Where are you taking
that thing? Come on, leave it alone. Leave it alone. Just ignore that thing and
stand still. Think about it. If that thing is important, why don't I know about
it? Are you even listening to me? I'll tell you what that thing isn't. It isn't
yours, so leave it alone."

"Neurotoxin... *cough* So deadly... *coughs* Choking... Hahahaha... I'm
kidding. When I said 'Deadly Neurotoxin', the 'Deadly' was in massive "sarcasm
quotes". I could take a bath in this stuff, put it on cereal, rub it right into
my eyes. Honestly, it's not deadly at all. To me... You on the other hand are
going to find the deadliness a lot less funny."

:D:D

[Test Assessment Report:]
"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
'til you run out of cake
And the science gets done
And you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive

[Personnel File Addendum:
Dear << Subject Name Here >>,]
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.
And so I'm GLaD I got burned
Think of all the things we learned
For the people who are
Still alive.

[Personnel File Addendum Addendum:
One Last Thing:]
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 up 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!

[PS:] And believe me I am still alive
[PPS:] I'm doing science and I'm still alive
[PPPS:] I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive
[FINAL THOUGHT:]
While you're dying I'll be still alive

[FINAL THOUGHT PS:]
And when you're dead I will be still alive.
STILL ALIVE!
Still alive!"

I portal!

Didn't we have some fun though? Remember when the platform was sliding into the fire pit and I said "Goodbye" and you were like "NO WAY" and then I was all "We pretended we were going to murder you. That was great...

Vegeta

what a game

lafors

So I got to the fire bit, and got past it.
Now after about 30 mins I still going through backrooms with pistons etc.

So whats the story here? How long does this go on for?

Not too long.

A-Trak

What a freakin ending:D

Can honestly say I'v never laughed so much while trying my damndest to kill an end game boss

Go ahead and rub your face
all over it. Maybe you should marry that thing since you love it so much! Do
you want to marry it?

Genius!

Also loved the bit -

When you're throwing the balls you knock off her into the pit they all have different personalitys - especially the last angry bastid!

johnny_ultimate

I actually don't remember laughing so giddily as I did when those end credits started rolling. If this was a film, people would be quoting it left, right and centre. Unfortunately, few of my friends are gamers so none of them get it when I go up and warn them that "the cake is a lie".

They'll realise some day...
