Portal 2/Awesome: Difference between revisions

**** One should remember that GLaDOS could've killed her twice. {{spoiler|1=By abandoning her on the moon, or later by simply killing her while she was asleep. but by that point she's proven so resourceful, so capable, that GLaDOS decides to give her what she wants.}}

* Wheatley, towards the end of the game, {{spoiler|1=manages to trick both the player and GLaDOS. He keeps telling the player than in a few test chambers he'll give you a surprise worth "dying for". He then tells you he'll "surprise" you in two more. You enter the first one after that, and see a faith plate indicating a jump to another level. You go to jump on the faith plate and Wheatley catapults you ''sideways''.}} Even ''GLaDOS'' admits it was good.

'''GLaDOS:''' {{spoiler|{{smallcaps|Okay. Credit where it's due. For a little idiot built specifically to come up with stupid, unworkable plans, that was a pretty well-laid trap.}}}} }}

* Wheatley does it earlier by {{spoiler|1=hacking into GLaDOS's test chamber in the middle of a test, rescuing Chell, and promptly leading her through the backstage areas of Aperture.}} Even a {{spoiler|purpose-built}} idiot can have a moment of brilliance.

* Cave Johnson's final message turns into a rant where he rejects the notion "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade" by saying he'll have his engineers invent [[Crazy Awesome|combustible lemons in order to burn down life's house.]]

* GLaDOS also gets one when she {{spoiler|1=knocks Wheatley into space and saves you from the same fate. Made even better by GlaDOS's [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner|final words to Wheatley as she winds up for the pitch...]]}}

'''GLaDOS:''' {{spoiler|{{smallcaps|I already fixed it. And you are ''not'' coming back!}}}} }}

* GLaDOS deserves an awesome label for {{spoiler|still having the guts to insult Wheatley after she's gone through the core transfer, which from her screams must be painful as hell, and then after he turns her into a ''potato'', she ''still'' has the guts to provoke him until he accidentally sets her and Chell free.}}

** It's so awesome that despite being one of the hardest, most frustrating puzzles, beta testers insisted it be kept in the game.

* {{spoiler|Rick the Adventure Sphere}}, if you let him think long enough during {{spoiler|the final battle with Wheatley}}, offers up a [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner]].

'''{{spoiler|Rick}}:''' Yeah, well, THIS thorn is about to take you down! ...Man, that sounded a whole lot better in my head. }}

* GLaDOS deserves a mention during the lift to the final area. {{spoiler|After you plug her into a mainframe outlet, she delivers a line worthy of an action movie.}}
