ithilienne 2 Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Anyone play Portal (the Half-Life 2 mini/bonus/spin-off game)? It's like a first-person puzzler and it was just mindbogglingly FUN. I've not played/watched such an out and out fun game in a long time. Just remember: THE CAKE IS A LIE.

Mailbox 0 Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 Yeah the game is really a must play. The advance stages are really hard and fun. "Sill alive" went in my favorites play list after playing that game. Then I looked up videos on youtube for speed runs. 18mins is the record for one guy on PC. Just look at my avatar pic. Weighted Companion Cube FTW. Game Script: http://www.gamefaqs.com/computer/doswin/file/934386/50477 Everything GLaDoS says is hilarious. The cake is a lie. But the pie is real.

D4rkone 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 The Enrichment Center reminds you that the Weighted Companion Cube cannot speak. In the event that the Weighted Companion Cube does speak, the Enrichment Center urges you to disregard its advice. =========================== Portal was really a mind game. I Youtube'd after level 15 since I was stuck yea, I cheated, lol. But I did buy the Orange Box. <3333333 TF2. If anyone wants to play, drop me a PM >> Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mailbox 0 Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 "The symptoms most commonly produced by Enrichment Center testing are superstition, perceiving inanimate objects as alive, and hallucinations. The Enrichment Center reminds you that the weighted companion cube will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, cannot speak." "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 'NNOO WWAAYY", and then I was all "We pretended we were going to murder you", that was great."

ota_retired 6 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 To all those blashpeming about the cake, to you I reveal... THE TRUTH (highlight below for spoiler) THE CAKE IS NOT A LIE I finished the game yesterday, the boss battle was surprisingly easy. And in the endin movie, you see what the cake REALLY is..

Mailbox 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 No the cake is a lie... GLaDOS promised you a cake at the end of the test... the test ended and she tried to kill you hence the cake was a lie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jimm 0 Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 but was she really trying to kill you or was it just a test? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

abubacar 0 Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 I thought that the cake was actually real because at the end it shows you that cake?

I think it was just before the credits with GLaDOS singing. Anywho yes, portal is amazing, i actually don't think i have ever heard someone say anything bad about it... To contest this point yet again, no in-universe character has seen the cake, so the cake does not exist. The cake at the end is more than likely just something the developers through in as a "good job, here's your cake". Anyway: [GLaDOS]"Hello. We hope you have enjoyed your brief detention in the press event room. The Aperture Science Enrichment Center is pleased to announce the worldwide debut of Portal: Still Alive, a 2008 exclusive for the Xbox 360. Due to the previous tests being solvable, we are currently manufacturing new test chambers for only the most qualified test subjects. Good Luck."[/GLaDOS] Yeah, that's right. More Portal levels for the 360. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/36209.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jkid 0 Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I do actually have the game on my PC. Sort of, it's been preloaded via Steam and it just needs to be activated with a purchase. But I won't be able to until this Fall. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SecondChild 0 Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I think the quantum cake theory holds water. When those people failed to reach the end of the test chambers, their observation collapsed they wave function and, for them, the cake was a lie. Poor Chell, even though she doesn't know it, for her the cake was not a lie. =0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tstidm1 0 Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 Anyone play Portal (the Half-Life 2 mini/bonus/spin-off game)? Just remember: THE CAKE IS A LIE. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ithilienne 2 Posted July 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 Anyone play Portal (the Half-Life 2 mini/bonus/spin-off game)? Just remember: THE CAKE IS A LIE. Now I know where THe Cake is a Lie comes from. I have had that in my brain for eons that question. I wonder how you can get Portal, since it sounds like an interesting game. If you download Steam (free!), you can purchase and play the game through your PC. It's also available for PC and XBOX 360 at most game stores - in a stand-alone version ($20, worth every penny) or bundled with the Orange Box (which includes a Half Life 2 episode, Team Fortress 2, Peggle Extreme, and one or two other games).
