A couple of choice, spoilery bits of GlaDOS dialog from the Portal 2 article:
When you meet GLaDOS for the first time in P2:
"Oh, it's you... It's been a really long time. How have you been? I've been really busy being dead. You know... after you murdered me? Okay look, we both said a lot of things that you are going to regret. But I think we should put our differences behind us. For science. You monster."
From a later Aperture Science Labs Test Chamber introduction:
"We're a lot alike, you and I. You tested me. I tested you. You killed me. I -- oh, no, wait. I guess I haven't killed you yet. Well. Food for thought during this next test."
Oh, hilarious, wonderful dialogue.
For me, the big news out of Valve is that Steam is coming to the Mac. This will mean I will be able to play Team Fortress 2 with all the extra maps and class add-ons that they simply haven't found a way to fit onto the 360.
We still all need to meet for some Halo shenanigans.
Yes. Yes we do. Especially now that I own Halo 3.
Then we need to set a date and time.
So, a weekend? Afternoon or evening?
before I gotta pack up things. Although, Xbox will be one of the last. (assuming I get the offer). This weekend? It's all previews, no tech! Wheee! Or maybe Team Fortress2?
I can't do Saturday, but let me check my Sunday schedule to see what time works for me.
omnis, did you ever get my xbox live friend request?
I sent one out to a bunch of peeps, but the last time I checked, I'd only gotten a response from Cass. I'm still waiting to hear from omnis, ND (he's been too busy to game), Pix, and Raq. I'm not sure what other Buffistas' gamer tags are.
Hat trick:
Which makes me think we might need to find a way to host and access from the thread a list of gamer tags for Buffistas (opt in, of course).
Sean, what is your gamertag?
