Black Mesa VS Aperture Science
HellHound:
Black Mesa gave everybody a free sample of aliens.
I'm not sure which is worse, damning the planet with aliens, or an AI killing a facility of people...
Tudoreleuu:
I love how we're starting an argument over two virtual corporations in two games made by the same company
also I wonder
if black mesa and aperture are in the same universe
how does chell fare with running through a flower field while citadel 17 is collapsing
also I agree with hellhound, a rogue AI which kills everyone in the base is still not as bad as a failed interdimensional portal experiment that sprinkled evil aliens all over the loving planet

they do take place in the same universe because the borealis was found with its own map in hl2's files
plus there's a projector in portal 1 that shows black mesa
also doesn't portal 2 take place far far into the future? and isn't city 17 located in europe? the mineshaft in ep2 contains cryllic characters, so it has to be

alright
I'll will give you that
if it weren't for the resonance cascade, the world would not have been consumed by war
Tudoreleuu:
well true, portal 2 does take place 'nine- n--nine nine nine nine nine nine n---' days into the future
does that mean by the time chell steps into that flower field, the whole combine war and every war that followed is probably over?
god forget the timeline is so confusing, we should compile an official chart to organize this stuff

maybe after everything dies it regrows like nature is supposed to?
that or whereever chell ends up was unaffected and hidden
or, you know
the common theory that she died in portal 1 and portal 2 is just purgatory
