Poll: So I just preordered.. A freaking Portal Gun.

[ResonanceSD]

Frim a brick and mortar store, to boot, because online sold out faster than you could say "supermassive black hole"

Anyway two options. Do i keep it in mint condition? Or open that bad boy up as soon as I get it?

How much did it cost you?

Because it's Australia, just shy of 200

Be careful with that thing man. Don't get any ideas like sending deadly lasers at my house via portals.

What about combustible lemons? Are those ok?

Primed to go off or not? Either way is fine, I just need to know if I should be ready to throw them at my neighbor's cat right away or if I can wait until later for that.

I'm not entirely sure. The manufacturer was insane.

If I were you, I'd do a bit of both. Play with it a bit and when you're finally out of energy, dust it off and put it on the shelf for glorious viewing.

Good idea. I dont want to become some sort of power nerd (already am) who insists that everything is kept in mint condition.

Taking care of your stuff is alright and frankly I'd want to keep my Portal Gun in good condition but come on! Who could resist playing with a real-life one xD.

limited run of 5000? Many will never see daylight. Their owners are to gamers, as gamers are to regular people.

"Mint Condition" as in never open up the box? Where's the fun in that?

Get a trophy case, put it on display! Be the envy of your friends!

and have non gamers go. "is that from star wars or something?"

To which you respond

"If you don't know, then I'm not explaining, because frankly you wouldn't care."

And go on with your awesome life.

My friends who hate pcs have heard of portal. It's mainstream, trust me.

 

[coolbeans21]

Wait? Such a thing exists?



TAKE MY MONEY

OT: that shit would be going right on my mantle with a nice displaycase, screw mint condition

 

[Cheesus333]

Mount it above your TV on the wall, and take it down only in times of crisis and/or boredom.

Acceptable emergencies:

* Hostile AI takeover
* Animal King revolution
* Turret Quartet out of key
* Companion Cube threatens to stab you/speaks
* Moon looks irresistibly appealing

Seriously though, I am insanely jealous so you have to play with it a lot and enjoy it for the both of us.

Why would you buy something then never take it out of its box...

If you want to keep it in a case, at least put it in a 'Incase Lemons Break Glass' case.

BREAK GLASS IN CASE OF CAKE! Nice idea
