Valve has posted the third video in its series of hilarious Portal 2 ads. This latest “Aperture Investment Opportunity” features Aperture President and CEO Cave Johnson announcing a brand new product line. It seems that the faux company has developed a consumer version of its beloved talking turrets. Regardless of why it is that we’re so in love with something that is programmed to shoot at us, MTB plans to order a few for its executive offices.
The video takes viewers inside the tech of the the automated weapons and answers several questions that you’ve probably always wondered about video game turret science. In the video below, Johnson explains the absurdly complicated ridiculously simple manner in which Aperture stows a seemingly endless supply of bullets into these things. He also details the company’s ingenious method of staying ahead of the competition by firing off the entire bullet (including the casing). Brilliant!
There used to be an embeded media player here, but it doesn't work anymore. We blame the Tumbeasts.
