Yep, it fit the game and mood perfectly. Best ending to a game ever. I just finished it recently. I realized I had this game sitting on Steam account for years and never played it. I thought it was a demo or something, till I didn't "assume the party position" hahaha. I was like... uhhh it's going straight for the fire, time to bail, lol.
lol true. most will absolutely not get this song unless they've played the game. if you havent played the game its probably gonna sound really stupid like wtf but after playing the game the song becomes awesome lol
The same that happened to me. When i downloaded the song on rockband(havent played portal at that time) i was wtf is this. Free stuff Sucks! But know that ive know what the song means and played the game is just awesome. Go and play it, noew
@quizno1992 Same here. The humor and irony in that game are perfect. This song in the credits made me sit there with my jaw dropped at the level of humor in a technical video game like Portal. Same feeling - best game ever.
its not at the end it says you will be baked and then there will be cake, the song says keep trying till we run out of cake, so you are the cake and the cake means test subjects so when we run out of cake means everone dies.....i think
You know portal is part of the half life series right? Now for the conspiracy: They had to have made more than one portal gun, that's kind of an obvious. And we all know that in Ep3 of half-life will take place partially on the Borialus ship (If you don't know what that is go play half-life) which was built by Aperture Science, so maybe there is a portal gun on board and you get to use it :D
ya, hl2 ep2 when you enter the lab and you see stuff on the screen and stuff happens. then you see the borealis on the screen and then kliener makes some speech about it :D
"On June 10, 2008, Kotaku reported that Valve was seeking voice actors for the character role of Aperture Science CEO Cave Johnson, suggesting that the second game is a prequel to the events in Portal. However, a later update suggests it could be a sequel, with Johnson as another AI."
