      Al B looks sorta like Ben Aflac* in that picture. I am debating whether to change my vote in the banning thread now.

      *I know Aflac isn't how to spell it, but I misspelled it and Google said "Did you mean Aflac?" and I figured, why not? I always thought the duck was a better actor anyways.

        The ending was fun. What was that, Iowa?

            This is a $15 xbox live arcade game at best... just like the original.

            Don't fall for the hype. Guy is a doctor and is made of money. What's worth $50 to him isn't the same for the rest of us.
            Don't complain about not having money. You have a good education but just refuse to improve your situation. If you try and fail, then I might give a modicum of a sh*t.

              I just found out you can smash the screens (on the chamber where it's trivial to do so) Now I'll have to go back and smash them all.

                A news article clipped in one of the display cases in 50s-era Aperture suggested that Mr. Johnson built the facility in an abandoned mine in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.


                Which, speaking as a Michigander, makes a lot of sense.

                  I think I've read that according to canon, Aperture Science is headquartered in Ohio, so it's not unreasonable to conjecture the labs (where more illicit research was conducted) themselves are based in the original Michigan salt mines Johnson purchased across the state line.

                  Long-term storage of nuclear waste, sealing-off from the world homicidal lunatic AI, food seasoning. Salt, is there anything you can't do?

                    I don't understand why the facility was powered by a nuclear reactor. They already have an infinite safe energy source.

                    • I was thinking the same thing. Build a waterwheel and pop a portal at the bottom of a swimming pool...

                      • I haven't played anything beyond Half-Life 1 and 2 but is Portal supposed to take place within the same universe as the Half-Life series?

                            The facility was probably constructed before the development of the Portal technology.

                              • Maybe portals use power directly equal to the amount of energy the passes through them. Or something.
