A Triumph Indeed

Mar31

Written by Rob

Kristi hates Portal. We have several games that she dislikes but that I love (such as Dead Space), but rarely do we reach a point where I’m outright forbidden to play such-and-such when she’s at home. For her, Portal stands at the top of the Games To Be Hated.

And it has nothing to do with gameplay. She’s never played it. She hates the sounds. She hates the creepy little turret robots who say “Are you still there?” and “Preparing to dispense product” just before they open fire on your ass. And most of all, she hates this song.

Personally, I think “Still Alive” is what turned a really great game into an outright brilliant work of genius. Too bad I’ll never get my wife within a mile of playing the game herself.
