It's all fun and games until it tells you that you're adopted and no one cares about you.

I just checked the calendar, it's been over eight months since Portal came out. The Portal fanservice well is bone dry.

If I bought that, it would be hard to overstate my satisfaction.

its fake...the guy holding it never moves after he initiates the last touch. plus, there is a bit of a "glitch" right when his hand drops away.

Most excellent - all it needs to do now is throw in phrases every now and then.

"So you want to drive to the nearest Gamestop, huh ?

In 500 meters, please turn left.

Through no fault of the Enrichment Center, you managed not to follow the course I calculated. A complimentary secondary course will be calculated in 5...4...3...2...1... *bzzt*

Oh, so you want to go over the freeway ? You want to go there fast ? WELL I WON'T LET YOU !

How does that feel ?"
