Confused with the new version.[edit]

How do you get to the MSDOS-style prompt on the new version? 184.56.129.121 01:58, February 20, 2011 (UTC) It isn't on the new version. That didn't stop me, though: [1]. NickNackGus 00:56, June 21, 2011 (UTC)

Message[edit]

Why does this say that the message was left by a test subject? It's calmly written, no panic or plea for help, none of rat mans insane rambling, this was simply a worker-to-worker message. Could someone change this? CAW4 01:13, October 28, 2009 (UTC)

Good point. I changed it to say it was most likely either a former employee or a test subject.--YabbaMyIcingTalk 01:18, October 28, 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, good point, thanks! Klow 10:01, October 28, 2009 (UTC)

Test References[edit]

Should there be a section about references made in the test on the site? For example, I see the comic Pearls Before Swine named and Cloud Cuckoo Land (a world in Banjo-Tooie). There are many other references throughout the test. Ganon12788 08:08, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

They should be covered, yeah. Forgot about all that. Klow 10:56, December 4, 2009 (UTC)

GLaDOS v1.09[edit]

I noticed that v1.09 is now running on the website but I really don't know since when exactly... There are now actually more commands listed after typing "LIB" (but no new ones except for play, which I already added to the commands). C.h.a.r.l.i. 22:04, January 10, 2010 (UTC)

Play[edit]

I noticed that the admin command "play portal" links to a removed youtube video. Has this already been noted? — Unsigned comment by Fireman V2

Again my friend, you don't sign and don't read the article. Can't you even make a quick search through the page?... Klow 23:21, March 2, 2010 (UTC)
Oh, right. I just skimmed, and then went to check out the site myself. As for the signing, I was in a bit of a rush at the time. Anyway, is it possible that the removed video was a portal trailer? — Unsigned comment by Fireman V2

Secret message[edit]

This article mentions that, during the apply process, some letters slowly blink. However, it doesn't mention that these letters spell out 'thecakeisalie'. I would add that myself, but I don't really want to register. 75.167.202.170 03:20, April 9, 2010 (UTC)

Why won't you register? What would be your reason for that?... Klow 13:23, April 9, 2010 (UTC)
Privacy maybe WCLL HK 13:00, September 21, 2010 (UTC)

#PotatoFoolsDay addition[edit]

In case anyone cares there are now several potatoes under the Christmas tree. — Unsigned comment by 86.135.24.226

Added. SiPlus 17:58, April 10, 2011 (UTC)

This, it is archive of this video[edit]

it is archived version of "Portal" video around February 15, 2007. the link can be seen here[2]. So, this video been taken down in unknown year. what you think about that? Trong Browne 02:40, July 18, 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. I've added it to the article. Marphy (talk) 14:35, 21 July 2018 (MSK)

Flash Player discontinued[edit]

Shouldn't we add something about how aperturescience.com isn't no longer accessible because of Adobe Flash Player's EOL? — Unsigned comment by OVERWaDOS

There's been no change to the site, so there's nothing to add to the article as of now. It can still be used with Flash alternatives, but that's a topic about Flash which is unrelated and not about the site itself. Marphy (talk) 18:08, 1 August 2021 (MSK)
