[QUOTE=AlphaGunman;25565367]Okay, you're right, but still, don't you think this is Valve fanboyism gone too far?: [img_thumb]http://www.1337upload.net/files/SS-2010-10-22_13.14.55.png[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] I won't buy Nokia because it became shit, not because some commercial.
brb guys, destroying my nokia phone
What a bunch of cunts.
If you're than concerned then email gabe.
Oh I love the raged Valve nerds in the comments. Spamming "This is ripoff" and thumbs down just shows how immature the Valve community is. I expect a spam of dumb ratings from said immature individuals.
Sounds exactly like GLaDOS, Valve needs to sue.
They even ripped off GLaDOS' personality.

OP is an idiot. They just used the same vocal encoder.
What if they secretly asked Valve for permission first? Who knows. Someone's gotta ask Gabe.
I always had Nokia Phones and the new Smartphone-generation is ridiculously manufactered. My 5800 crashes like once a day and now they rip off Glados. What uncreative fucktards they are. I will never ever buy again one of their shitty products.
Wow that's nothing. Check this shit out! [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1de_nqWXj10[/media] There are more videos like this, it's crazy.

[QUOTE=kartarn;25567053]Nokia knew shit would hit the fan.[/QUOTE] a bunch of fat neckbeard fanboys spazzing out = shit hitting the fan?
Valve fanboys on maturity and not jumping to retarded conclusions just because a voice sounds similar.
[QUOTE=Anthophobian;25584362]They just used the same vocal encoder.[/QUOTE] In essence, you're correct. They did use the same tool, for the [I]same purpose[/I]. The tool is called [URL="http://www.celemony.com/cms/index.php?id=products_editor"]Melodyne[/URL], it's main purpose is for retuning and retiming notes (vocal or instrumental) in a recorded performance. However, it also allows you to change the formant of individual notes, and you can greatly enhance or remove all gliding between notes. It's not like I'm furious or raging over it, it's just an obvious, groan-worthy rip. :v: [QUOTE=Silikone;25586190]Wow that's nothing. Check this shit out!

The fans do it for fun, the corporation makes money as a result of it.
[QUOTE=AlphaGunman;25565035]Robotic voice, MUST BE GLADOS.[/QUOTE] It is definitely GLaDOS. The tone and random change of pitch every now and again resembles GLaDOS so much.

[QUOTE=evilking1;25565864]lol ever heard this thing called sarcasm[/QUOTE] Not on the internet. Internet is no place to be sarcastic and then expect people to realize you aren't actually retarded. But this is not always the case as you have proven yourself to be sarcastic AND retarded.
Yup Valve fanboys never learn. I HAYT NOKIA FOAH RIPPEN AFF MAH FVORATE GAM CARACTER. I NEVA BUY NOKIA EF ETS LAST FONE ON RRTH.
Don't you just hate people who think that valve made things like a robot voice?
[QUOTE=tehMuffinMan;25607426]Don't you just hate people who think that valve made things like a robot voice?[/QUOTE] SUE EVERY ROBOT MOVIE FOR RIPPING OFF PORTAL!!! Seriously GlaDos isnt the only robot on earth. And to say the least to the valve bandwagon VALVE copied glados's voice from another movie way back.
You guys are huge nerds if this bothers you in the slightest. Pathetic.
[QUOTE=TheSpy;25607446]SUE EVERY ROBOT MOVIE FOR RIPPING OFF PORTAL!!! Seriously GlaDos isnt the only robot on earth. And to say the least to the valve bandwagon VALVE copied glados's voice from another movie way back.[/QUOTE] You obviously didn't notice, its not only the voice, its the commercials theme itself. Especialy that bust of a person, thats what you see sometimes in the portal trailer or the instructions at Portal chambers.
[QUOTE=tehMuffinMan;25607426]Don't you just hate people who think that valve made things like a robot voice?[/QUOTE] It's not the fact that it's a robot voice that's pissing people off, it's like when auto-tuning started becoming popular and people were using that. One person found out how to improperly use the program to get that effect, and everyone else started doing it. I'm not saying everyone's gonna be using a GLaDOS voice now, it's just people freak out about stupid things. I find it funny and I bet Valve finds it flattering.
Sounds like Glados but it isn't. Different pitch.
[QUOTE=SonicHitman;25609400]You obviously didn't notice, its not only the voice, its the commercials theme itself. Especialy that bust of a person, thats what you see sometimes in the portal trailer or the instructions at Portal chambers.[/QUOTE] What theme?? Its a ad. Valve Fans just don't understand that maybe nokia was allowed by valve to use the theme but instead you ignore that fact like its a mini fly.
These are obviously just cryptic videos advertising portal 3...
I actually thought that was cool. Also, I am so downloading the neurotoxin emitter app. it should be a hit at parties.
The ad isn't cynical enough :frown:
