History NightmareFuel / PORTAL

**** Speaking of [[spoiler: FaceHeelTurn Wheatley]], a line stated by GLaDOS suggests that [[spoiler: ''Wheatley himself was the morality core installed upon her in the first game'' and by extension is literally programmed to be a moron despite what he says otherwise]]. Wheatley pulling the scariest FaceHeelTurn into a murderous psycho A.I that is the complete antitheses of his original programming shows us exactly what happens when the naive ''moron'' bites back.

** Also take notice to the beds you can see. Notice the lack of corpses and blood. But you can see that someone has slept there. Do you remember what GLaDOS said in portal 1 [[spoiler: "I've got no idea of what's going on outside" she also said that she was the only thing protecting them from that. And now she's down and cant protect you...]]

* Wheatley screaming [[spoiler: "GRAB ME! GRAB ME!"]] before he is [[spoiler: sucked up into space and Chell is rescued by GLaDOs.]]

*** From Aperture Science:A History:

* ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'' isn't that much of a creepy game. It almost completely takes place in a series of brightly lit rooms, which are all white and very clean. There are even opaque windows to observation rooms, but you soon realize that the entire facility seems to be completely deserted, except for you and a slightly malfunctioning AI. Of course, things get worse. Later on, you can climb into the machinery behind the movable walls, which I found even much more discomforting.

* [=GLaDOS=] is a supercomputer, one of the fastest and smartest minds around, who gained self-awareness miliseconds after coming online. When I realized that, this particular dying statement of hers became absolutely ''terrifying.''

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dE0zP5QNoRk The following unused GLaDOS line. I mean we know she's into the demoralising but DAMN!]]

** I inverted that. I felt really relaxed in lower Aperture. This is because unlike the modern chambers where the main AI could kill you right then. You also have Cave Johnson's funny quotes, and even when GLaDOS gets attached to your portal gun, she is just a powerless potato.

*** I don't see why she would make that up...

** Which would be...who? Recovering addicts? Sexual abuse victims?
*** I was thinking of the latter.

* "Are you still there?" and "I don't hate you..." are creepy enough when said in the turrets' robotic-yet-childlike voices...but the line ''"There you are."'' is spoken in such a way that it doesn't sound quite like the turrets. It sounds more like GLaDOS. The blood actually drained from my face when I heard it the first time.

*** In a way, that makes it ''worse''! It means neither GLaDOS or [[spoiler: Wheately]] is nessecarily evil, rather Aperture ''itself'' is evil and it's evil infects the AI's.

** If you're quick enough, you can noclip through the panels and down a bit then look up. When I did that, I wish I hadn't. You can see what looks like [[spoiler: a dozen ... things? screwdrivers? grabbing at her head. Whatever they were, they looked awful.]]

*** I always thought he was just taken out of his receptacle (the thingy with the handlebars), and that cores can normally move like that when taken out of the receptacle.

** And how about the fact that, RIGHT before wheatley yells the story, if you listen closely, you can hear what sounds like turrets SCREAMING!

** ...And immediately after that, [[spoiler:you're shoved right back into testing under [=GlaDOS=] again. This time, it's alot more awkward. [[TranquilFury She may not be showing it,]] as much as she could at least as a computer, but you can tell: She is '''mad.''' Mad at you killing her, and she has every intention of making you suffer for it. It Wheatly hadn't returned, Chell likely would've been trapped indefinitely by [=GlaDOS=], forced to do test after agonizing test again... and again... '''[[AndIMustScream and again...]]''']]

* A humorous and mildly creepy BlackComedy suddenly becomes mindbendingly creepy when it's revealed to be happening in the same continuity as ''HalfLife''. This game becomes much more uncomfortable to laugh at when you realize that, in the context of its universe, it's ''dead fucking serious'' -- as amusing as [=GLaDOS=] is, imagine meeting her or someone like her in real life. Not quite so funny now, is it.

* Portal 2 repeatedly uses the sound that the [[HalfLife Manhacks]] made. Play one, then the other, and you will be on edge ''constantly''.

* [[http://half-life.wikia.com/wiki/File:Mural_woman_glados_activation.jpg One of Rattman's murals]] shows a woman, ''screaming'' with the most horrifically drawn face, as several scientists die around her. [[spoiler:The woman is implied to be Caroline.]] You can also see in the lower right corner of the mural what seems to be Rattmann begging for mercy with a companion cube near him.

--> ''[on neurotoxins]'' When I said "deadly neurotoxins", the deadly was in massive sarcasm quotes. I could take a bath in this stuff. Put in on cereal, rub it right into my eyes. Honestly, it's not deadly at all. ''To me''.
--> I let you survive this long, because I was curious about your behaviour. Well, you've managed to destroy that part of me.
--> This isn't brave. It's murder.

--> ''"Am I being too vague here? I'' despise ''you! I'' loathe ''you! You smugly quiet, bossy,'' MONSTER ''of a woman! This place would have been a'' TRIUMPH ''if it weren't for you!"''

** Actually, while YES, Portal and Half-Life are in the same universe, you have to remember Portal 2 takes place HUNDREDS of years after the first portal. And, if the conclusion that the first portal takes place after the seven-hour war is true, there should be no Combine's or zombies there. In fact, the ending looks like the outside is better.
*** You can't be too sure of that, you might have been there for years, but it don't have to be hundreds. The surface looks pretty good when you defeat GLaDOS the first time too.

* The alternate Aperture realities. One of them, Cave died in the mantis-man breakout. Another, everyone is a giant mantis and the experiment was to create Man-mantises. Yet another, Cave and Greg are watching you. ''Always''.

* [=GLaDOS=] waking up.
