    Today my friend printed off like 10 sheets of paper with pieces of companion cube on it and put it on the whiteboard in our engineering class and then pulled down the projector screen over it. Then the teacher pulled th screen up later in the class, and like 4 of us burst out laughing, and everyone else was like "wtf is that, some gay heart box." It was epic.

    Anyone here see the PC cases scatered around the later levels? Would anyone here join me in making a plea to get those put into production ;-). Seriously, though I think it would be a great project for any modders in the thread. Oh and while you are at it, get me a wighted companion cube, I miss that little guy.

    I thought exactly that while playing. I don't think I could craft the front's mesh and glossy plastic quite like that though. Plus it looks too much like a 360. It might help inspire some ideas for a different project though.

    Spot-on, sir. I think the real fun (long-term) in it is going to be in mods or integration into other games. It's sort of like Lost Coast in the fact that it's more of a tech demo than anything else.

    I still don't understand the obsession with the weighted companion cube though. Would someone care to explain it?

    The weighted companion cube is your friend and will never threaten to stab you. What's not to love?

    It's just an effective meme. Besides, if GLaDOS wants you to destroy it, it must be good!

    Its just one of those items in the game that you find as an important and even memorable character, even if it doesn't do anything other than sit still, be a step, a shield, or a switch weight. :D

    Sure. You failed at Portal. Simple as that.

    I'm sorry I didn't manage to connect with an inanimate object that is no different from any other cube in the game. :eyebrow:
