Orv Posted April 18, 2011 I just don't care about all this non-sense. I just don't give a flying whit. Let me know if the game is good, though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderPeel2001 Posted April 18, 2011 Hmm. Hmm, indeed. Still, I'm glad I've had fun playing these indie games. I'd owned a bunch and never actually bothered to play them. As it turns out they were really good! I am wondering if we're going to actually unlock everything before the timer runs out. Especially as everyone is in work now. I have a feeling that 500,000 potatoes was what was needed, but who knows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikemariano Posted April 18, 2011 I am wondering if we're going to actually unlock everything before the timer runs out. Especially as everyone is in work now. If you people really loved Portal 2/Indie Games/Potatoes, you would have all quit your jobs to play these games! I also wouldn't put it past Valve if they actually delayed the release of Portal 2 if these games aren't played in time. A humorous message from GlaDOS calling us failures and making us play more Killing Floor. And by "us" I mean you wiser PC games. I'll be waiting a week and a half for my Xbox disc to arrive from Amazon via Super Saver Shipping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigJKO Posted April 18, 2011 I laughed when someone on the RPS comments suggested Valve might punish us for being so gullible as to surrender all our CPU's to a homicidal A.I. super-computer in the first place! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lu Posted April 18, 2011 Potatoes are being consumed! Might it actually release this evening? I hope so! I soooo want to play. O_O Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Squid Division Posted April 18, 2011 I laughed when someone on the RPS comments suggested Valve might punish us for being so gullible as to surrender all our CPU's to a homicidal A.I. super-computer in the first place! Honestly, I hope they do somehow. There should be repercussions for us being this stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikemariano Posted April 18, 2011 The POTATOES ARE COUNTING DOWN! 10:50 - Engaging starch-based power cells 11:00 - Reboot safety test protocol initiated... 11:00 - Relaxation chamber locks released... 11:00 - Involuntary hazard mitigation associates have assumed testing positions... 11:00 - Pre-release lethality assessment initiated...

ThunderPeel2001 Posted April 18, 2011 Yes! The potatoes are a multiplier going for the remaining games, so they should be completed in half the time. If you've ever wanted to help out, the next 10 hours (while the potatoes are counting down) are when you should do it! Valve has us owned, don't they?

BigJKO Posted April 18, 2011 I think I found something hidden in the vines to the left, as well. It just appeared as the potatoes started counting down. I think it has something to do with the Borealis.. I've highlighted it in red, because it's well hidden, obviously. Stimpy is a lie! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wubbles Posted April 18, 2011 Oh, look; the big "Active Test Subjects" thing says "NINE" instead of "ZERO" now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigJKO Posted April 18, 2011 Yep, I think that means Nine people are playing Portal 2, right.. now.. (!!)

Squid Division Posted April 18, 2011 Apparently those 9 are some of the main ARG solvers. One of them was a member of Shacknews and someone posted a link to his steam profile. Glados took it over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gwardinen Posted April 19, 2011 I'm not back in the country for another 12 hours or so. Game sent me an email yesterday telling me they were dispatching the game, so it may actually already be sitting in my hallway. I need a gorram portal gun to get me from here to there.
