Doc. Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Some dad got his panties in a twist becuase Wheatley(Personality Core) was teased about being Adpoted in Portal 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdOOBoCAlgs&feature=feedf They sent a message to Valve, they couldnt care less. Think of how many sex jokes there are in HL2! But these people are taking offence from an Orphan joke!? They say Portal 2 is an educational, The f***? this is a puzzle game! This game is not for educational purposes, Its like saying Far Cry is educational. AND PORTAL 2 IS A KIDS GAME? SINCE WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN? Plus GLADoS said it and shes a physcho supercomputer, GLADoS gives example of an orphan joke, DURRR. DISCUSS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 I lol'd Actually, I was surprised it wasn't Fox News airing that report, would so fit into that scheme. Another proof that people who have no clue what they're talking about should keep their mouth shut, now and forever, or just get some actual knowledge of the matter. Valve won't answer to this because they're probably laughing their butt of right now, and Sony has by god enough problems with their PSN, so why should they care. Nobody that had the remote chance of actually playing the game and knows what it is will take this seriously, only politicians and americans would fall for that (Sorry for the joke, it's just that I hold dear to my prejudices, they're so much fun, just like this story ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daft Punk Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 But GLaDOS pretty much says that there is nothing wrong with being an orphan, so wouldn't the game be doing the opposite of making fun of orphans by making the people who do make fun of orphans look stupid? I'm surprise this isn't Fox News reporting on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you listened to the entire story, then it should be obvious that as soon as he heard the phrase come from Wheatley he turned off the game to stop his daughter from hearing any more.

His opinion was viewed on half of the scene after he wanted his daughter to not hear any more, so it's understandable. I'll repeat it again. It wasn't actually [i]his[/i] fault.

Jacoby746 Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 It even shows in the clip that GLaDOS is being sarcastic when she tells Wheatly "you're adopted and that's terrible". And GLaDOS also points out that Wheatly is meant to be a moron, so I'm not surprised that that's all he came up with. I did find it funny that the news team didn't know who made the game until Sony told them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack of All Spades Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 I love how stupid Wheatley's insults are! I mean, really! [quote=Wheatley]"Fatty. Fat, fat, fatty no-parents."[/quote] What kind of fool looks at that as if someone spit on their grandmother? That wasn't even clever, let alone insulting. I guess parents who adopt are more sensitive to these things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archbaron Larry Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Am I the only one that finds it funny that they actually complained about this to Sony? The only reason this story was aired was that the old guy at the beginning happens to be Jack Thompson's brother. And GLaDOS actually makes fun of you being adopted in the beginning of the game, and now she's defending you. But like you guys said, IT'S A FREAKING GAME! There are more important issues in the US that we need to worry about like the economic crisis, Jack Thompson, massacres, Jack Thompson, the severe weather that has come close to killing me twice, Jack Thompson, and the Mayans and their 2012 theory. And don't forget Jack Thompson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
