   Erik Wolpaw is a keyword now? Is it expected that there will be a lot more Erik Wolpaw writing on this site in the near future?

   I plan on filing at least 4 Erik Wolpaw entries next week.

   “What I really mean is that game writers are the game equivalent of the guy who talks between the nude girls at strip clubs.”

   I have a new hero.

   While always insanely amusing, I must admit that finding out he was behind this wonderful game just convinced me that portal 2 will never ever actually happen.

   “the player is forced to make some dicey underwater moral choices.”

   As in KOTOR?

   I was thinking as in Bioshock, but I know nothing about KOTOR…

   The first time I read that I thought it was just a typo.

   But there IS an entire underwater planet in KotOR filled with dicey moral choices.

   IT WORKS ON MANY LEVELS!

   I wouldn’t say it was insanely good, just decent enough to exceed my expectation of no plot at all. Frankly, they could’ve skipped the story to make some harder puzzles.

    Portal was a really good game.. unfortunately it was way too short. I beat it in an afternoon. :/

    Also, no cake, wtf??? I had called my kid in to watch the party and my son was like ‘where’s the cake, and why are you going into the fire, dad?’

    /agree with Freakazoid that there should have been a couple really hard puzzles there at the end. Even the boss fight was fairly easy.

    Nice song at the end though… definitely a nice touch.

    Chet also works at Valve, and is also a staff writer along with Marc Laidlaw.

    Valve games have always been steeped in obvious sexualism. Headcrabs, what are they but leaping, screeching, head-chomping vagina dentata? And if Striders are cyborg’d alien organisms, what was their primary gun turret before they borged it?

    Sometimes a headcrab is just a headcrab.

    If head crabs symbolize female genitalia, being attacked by a headcrab is akin to returning to the womb…but in doing so, you are helpless, controlled like a puppet, and sucked dry of your bodily fluids until you’re barely a skeleton. Ultimately, you expire, leaving only a faceless, unidentifiable corpse behind.

    Why do I suddenly have this vision of Sigmund Freud, blindfolded, white-knuckled, grasping a broomstick, gleefully beating a pinata?

    It depends, does the pinata look like your mother?
