[quote]Basically I want both. I've been developing my app for some time now and I want to test it on multiple devices, some of which aren't jailbroken, and I also want to test out some UDK stuff I've been playing with lately on the actual device. And Portal 2 is simply awesome.
Problem is, I made a huge mistake today. When I went to the store to buy the Visa gift card that would be my ticket to an awesome good time in developer land and gamer land, I gave the woman $150 bucks and said, "Do what you can with that." I didn't realize there was a $4.95 activation fee. When she handed me the nickel, I should've realized that there was an activation fee. Instead, I smiled and grabbed the card. Fuck.
On top of that, when I went to the iOS dev site the previous day and added it to cart, I assumed there was no tax because it said this:

When you click that button, it responds to you like so:

Fuck. Now I'm down $5.93. Any young person on this forum knows how hard it is to get money in a way that you can spend it online when you're young, and if I were to combine it via PayPal, then I'd have to deal with the PayPal fees that get factored in as well.. Even if I were to get off my ass and buy another gift card, I don't even [i]have[/i] $10.93 to lay down, so the activation fee would rape whatever I [i]could[/i] squeeze together. If I just handed the woman that five that was sitting in my pocket..
However.. if I were to split the Portal 2 2-pack with someone, that's %20 off of $100, which is $40, meaning I'd only be down the small sum of $0.93..
So, the question is, what should I spend it on? Is Portal 2 worth it?
..Or can someone in the festive mood split the Portal 2 2-pack with me, then spot me $0.93? :v:[/quote]
EDIT:
Bought Portal 2 :v:. My artist is splitting the cost of the license with me.
Portal 2.
Are you serious?

Yep. Would've been a crap joke.

Portal 2.
I would go with portal 2 because to tell you the truth the iOS APP devolving area is pretty hard to get into then when you have that final product not many people will buy it.
So go towards the "funner" side and buy Portal 2
License. You could gain money from the App to go towards Portal 2.

Or his app could get really popular and he can get the money back and buy Portal 2 later.
Tough choice.
Portal 2, bro.
My app's already far in development, that's the thing, I'm at the point where public testing is necessary on a scale where just making it available to people who have jailbroken devices isn't going to cut it, but Portal 2 looks awesome.
EDIT:
Does anybody here have the Potato Sack? I can give you $39 on PayPal, you can spot me $1 and gift the 20% off'd Portal 2 to me, and I can get both :eng101:
