if it gets released early nobody will even care about the ARG, they'll be too busy playing the game.

Good, I'm getting sick of the ARG. It was fun but now it's just... boring.

I hope for the safety of people that it is an early release.[/QUOTE]

I find it interesting to a point, but nothing is really happening any more.
[QUOTE=MasterG;29190935]"TWO HOURS UNTIL THE HEAT DEATH OF THE UNIVERSE", "TWO HOURS UNTIL SINGULARITY (UNLESS OTHERWISE REDETERMINED)", "TWO HOURS TO NEXT TUESDAY (UNLESS OTHERWISE REDETERMINED)".
Heat death of the universe is obviously referring to the apocalypse (ApertureScience is fairly apocalyptic what with it being destroyed... indeed, its reconstruction could be seen as a metaphor for heaven/hell/purgatory)
Singularity = technological singularity, which many people think of as the point at which machines gain sentience, i.e. Glados
Two hours to next tuesday (Unless otherwise redetermined) = 2 hours till release, unless we haven't met the potato criteria.
My thoughts.[/QUOTE]
Two Hours to Singularity. That exact phrase is well used in one of Valve's other works. I can't recall whether it was Episode 1 or Half Life 2, but Overwatch at one point was saying "[X Time] to Singularity". It means Teleportation events, in Half Verse speak.
I know it was used in Nova Prospekt, at the end of that chapter, then I think it was used whilst fighting your way to Breen, and I think it was used in Episode 1, when the Combine were attempting to cause the Superportal event, and Gordon was dealing with the Citadel Core.

a universe can depend on a persons area of freedom, so to GLaDOS the universe is the apperture facility
