instead of resonance castades you get deadly neurotoxin both not so good.

Aperture Science sucks XD

Their first portal was installed into a shower curtain. It allowed easy access from one side of the curtain to the other. They cut a goddamn hole in a shower curtain, and marketed it as a portal XD

Black Mesa all the way.

The other day 2007 called and reminded me to play Portal for the first time, and it was pretty good. Does anyone know anything about a Portal Gun being put into any other FPSs?
Well, you can get a Portal Gun in HL2 (But technically, you're using HL2's weapons and maps in Portal). OT: I'd rather work at Black Mesa- its founder wasn't completely batshit (probably), it's not being investigated by a Senate subcommittee, and I won't be run through tests over and over by a psychotic, overbearing computer.

dont forget the Counter-Heimlich Maneuver that was a really bad idea.

Defiantly apature science. Trying to navigate around black mesa would be a pain in the ass and who the hell designed the ventilation system in that place? Defiantly aperture science. Even if GLaDOS releases a deadly neuro toxin and kills everyone.

Definitely Aperture Science.

Because you *know* that something is going to go wrong, and I'd rather be offed via gas than torn apart by monsters and made into a crab-zombie <3

Yes, but the deadly neurotoxin needs about 6 minutes to take effect, so the deadly neurotoxin option is not so bad. If you can escape from the deadly neurotoxin, then the deadly neurotoxin's effect is negated.

On a different topic, this thread might cause Portal/Half-Life Reference Singularity. Proceed with caution.

Hmmmm...getting eaten by aliens turned into a zombie or gunned down by solders?

I think I'll take the DEADLY NEURO TOXIN


And mabye If I'm unlucky I might end up put in stasis and forced to do some tests by GlaDOS

I'd work in Black Mesa. Because while all of the employees for both companies would be killed, I'd prefer getting shot than dying via...deadly neurotoxin...

Black Mesa, hands down. No deadly neurotoxin, lotsa cool aliens, and they were massively over-funded.

Also, we didn't fudge our progress reports like those robo-nerds down at Aperture. We got RESULTS, dammit! Just look at how many aliens and Xen samples were already lying around the facility before the Resonance Cascade!

I'd choose Black Mesa, considering that everybody that worked there didn't die because of an insane sentient disk operating system.

I'd go with Aperture just because I could put on a gas mask or some other breathing apparatus that would save me. Black Mesa had to be abandoned because the aliens destroyed it.

Though, come to think of it, a science nerd with a crowbar was all that was needed to kill a lot of those aliens, so maybe Mesa wouldn't be that bad.

Either way, they're both not very good options--Aperture Science is fully of crazy people and computers, but Black Mesa gets destroyed by aliens and the USMC. I'd rather work somewhere totally different.
didnt something happen to aperture also? everything is empty but functioning, so that leads me to believe something really bad happened or their just in a big room having a party with cake.
I'll give you two very big hints.

1)Artificial intelligence.

2)Ventilation systems.

Aperture Science.

I would rather eventually die by poison then getting taken over by a headcrab.
