    Guys make sure you explore the rooms after you stop doing the tests. In one of the rooms that you will come across is a projector like the one in cs_office, it gives you alot of info about Apeture Science what that thing is and how it ties into with the Black Messa. You cant enter the room its self but you can watch the slides from the room window.

    It's supposed to be "coconut-Pecan frosting"



    And the cake sitting on the desk next to the radio and red phone after you beat the game definitely has pecans in the frosting.

    haha, what a fun game. The creepy robot voice was crackin me up the whole time. The cake was definately not a lie but man do you have to go through a lot to get it. I think in the song or durring game play i heard something about this being a test for the idea of a full game version of Portal, not just a minigame. If they do come out with a full Portal game i would play it in a heart beat.

    Tip for the noobs, don't give up and ride the escalator into the flames!!

    It didn't only look amazing, it tasted great!

    And btw the tutorial here:
    Just blend every ingredient together, except the stuff for the frosting, put it in the oven for 45 min on 180 degrees C. Then put the frosting on and you have the portal cake!

    And the red balls on the cake in the game was something from the garnishes, it weren't strawberries.

    Every time i see that cake i get a mad craving for a slice. I was thinking about making a cake with the recipe on the screenshot i posted earlier in the thread but i just don't see how coconut and pecan's go together in an icing. I like the idea of coconut and vanilla better. Or even pecans and vanilla.

    dxdiag:
    I got that and fixed it by changing my AV software to avast. I like it a lot better now and it fixed all my problems with source based games.
    <eMesreveR>Do "girls" ever appear outside the Internet? Can i randomly encounter them?
    <Aleph-One>I believe they are a fabrication. Most of the evidence would suggest that they were created in a studio during the Cold War to display our industrial superiority over the Soviet Union.
