Loool - I was just about to order a Boards of Canada EP (In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country) at Amazon.co.uk, and look at who's review is at the top - dogboy73! :cheers:

Yeah, this happened to me on the advanced level too. I tried re-loading my savegame, but it still did the same. Can someone confirm whether or not this can happen in the normal levels, because I'm not so sure...

Yeah, I noticed this too, and meant to post about it but forgot which track it was in. Seems very odd.

Yeah - Portal Walkthroughs :) Piece of advice - only use these if you've completed the game, or if you are *really* stuck, otherwise you'll ruin the fun.

Once you have completed the game, the advanced maps and challenge maps are unlocked. The advanced maps are basically harder veriosns of the last 6 puzzles. The challenge maps include doing maps using the least footsteps / portals / time. Only when you load one of the challenge maps can you...

Hey dogboy73 - me too! 'No Cake For You' literally sent shivers down my spine the first time I heard it (in-game), and still does when I hear it. For anyone else who likes Kelly Bailey's ambient/electronic music, you'd probably also like both 'Boards of Canada' [Wikipedia] and 'Aphex Twin'...

Sketches - GLaDOS Could these drawings be connected with GLaDOS in some way? Perhaps they are a child's interpretation of GLaDOS - i.e., maybe she looks a bit like a jellyfish to a child. Just a thought... Also, the fact that there is a 'nice little jelly fish' and a 'big bad jellyfish' may...

For those of you still thinking about implementing some sort of calendar on the site, have you thought about using Google Calendar? I have been very impressed with Google's efforts on this one. Although I don't think it will be possible to completely 'integrate' it with vBulletin (with birthdays...

Ah, sorry! Didn't read your post properly. If using the grav-gun isn't working, I'd recommend starting the game again - it's only a couple of minutes beforehand. Also, I suppose you could validate your game files by right clicking on Episode 1 in your Steam games list, clicking 'Properties'...

After watching the HD version of the trailer, and closely examining it, I can be pretty sure that the logo is NOT the universal symbol for 'infinity'. I can't be 100% sure obviously because there is a tube in the way, and that part of the gun is partially blurry, but it's looks quite similar to...

Lol, just look at your avatar - I can't see any hemet or "hat" as you call it :cheese: Anyway, yes this seems like a rather pointless thread :rolling:

Ummm, I think you simply need to 'jump' onto that next ledge that you can see. Jump is usually the space bar, incase you were wondering. I apologise if this seems a little harshly said, but it seems rather obvious to me :|

I'm currently using a Razer Copperhead in combination with a fUnc 1030 Archetype mat, and would highly recommend them both for gaming :smoking: . Although if you want a budget mouse, this probably isn't the one to go for :)

I mean, come oooon! As if anyone is going to recommend IE! lol

Funny you should say that. I play at lunchtime online with my work buddy (we have 2 pc's). His is a lot newer than mine, yet his one crashes everyday and mine doesn't. And like $kelet0r said, it's bad enough to have to pull the plug. Honestly, it really is that bad, I'm not some nub who can't...
