[QUOTE=Andokool12;36891330]Getting sick of the gratuitous amount of Portal jokes that saturate the internet is not being a hipster[/QUOTE]
Stopping liking something as soon as it becomes mainstream (i.e: young internet people realize something exists and use it) is pretty much the textbook definition of hipster as far as I know
I wouldn't consider this a meme considering it's actually quite fitting.

No that's not it, that's not something I would remember from my childhood. It's specifically a game-show-ish male voice going "In SPAAAAAAAAAAAACE!" that I remember[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=rrunyan;36890457]That's it. Finally the joke is over.
And what a way to go out.
It's had its ups, and then alot of downs (mostly downs) but it ends on a high note.
RIP "spaaace xD" we love you 5ever[/QUOTE]

Wait, isn't that Wheatley? Because Space Core has a pupil.

Ricochet was not a mistake
it's not Valve's fault that everyone can't fully appreciate it's genius
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;36890421]You'd think this meme would get old by now.[/QUOTE]
Its just a homage, no need to act all superior.
How was Left 4 Dead 2 a mistake. It took place in a different region with different characters.

On top of all that here's a new article that states L4D2 sales out sold the original.

Well HLS was supposed to show how easy it is to transfer content from GoldSrc to Source, and it did. I fail to see your point against THAT.

It was buggy?
If you can read it says an anonymous member of the team, not like they all got together and said hey let's print wheatley on it.
[QUOTE=CakeMaster7;36892123]It was buggy?[/QUOTE]
Oh god a game is buggy it is ruined.
[QUOTE=Lukeo;36890499]Memes aside, I think it's pretty cool Valve is being acknowledged by NASA.
Maybe Valve will start selling rocket hardware?[/QUOTE]
Gaben rockets.
Get to Mars faster than HL3 is released.

I fail to see how either of these were a mistake.
I've never played Ricochet so I can't say that it was for sure but I'll just take everybody's word for it.

Ricochet is an extremely fun game that's perfect for playing with friends.

Are you fucking kidding me, it's called getting sick of a shitty reference, not "disliking it once it becomes mainstream". You think Portal was omg so totally underground at some point?
[editline]22nd July 2012[/editline]
This shit is like the 2012 edgy teen version of calling somebody a communist.
"No I don't like this"
"Wait a minute, isn't that, uh, [I]hipster?[/I]" - [B]Gasps[/B] - "Because I'm pretty sure [I]everyone[/I] likes it!"
"Hey, yeah! He's a hipster!"
"DIRTY HIPSTER"
"GET OUT OF HERE YOU[I]HIPSTER![/I]​"

defensive overdramatic argument 0/10
this reference wasnt even drained, idk why you're complaining
[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;36890421]You'd think this meme would get old by now.[/QUOTE]
Depending on the context it's not a meme, just a reference to a video game. Why is every reference now just a meme? There's a difference between a meme and a reference towards something.
This is a reference. It's not joke, or an image macro, or anything like that. It's literally just a character and a quote from something because they really liked the game.

Why is it that the only time I ever see you post is when you're
1 - Defending EA
or
2 - Trying to shit on Valve/Steam.
[QUOTE=Maloof?;36891080]I never really got the SPAAAACE joke to be honest
I went to party this one time and this I got to talking about Portal 2 with this guy and he immediately goes 'SPAAAAAACE!' and laughs like it's the funniest thing in the world
I performed the most awkward chuckle ever[/QUOTE]
sounds like a fucking blast
This thread got so fucking off course.
[QUOTE=CakeMaster7;36892123]It was buggy?[/QUOTE]
How so?
[QUOTE=Ermac20;36890755]am i the only one who didn't like this game?[/QUOTE]
How can you not like it? Great support. Great coop. Great singleplayer. And huge mapsupport by the community, due to the Level-Editor. How can you [U]not[/U] like it?

If a reference was used way too many times than it should then it becomes a meme.
"The cake is a lie" used to be a reference then everyone started using it
"Arrow to the knee" used to be a reference then everyone started using it
"It's over 9000" used to be a reference then everyone started using it
"This is Sparta" used to be a reference then everyone started using it

So is S.T.A.L.K.E.R.. But it's still one of the best games i've played

The cake is a lie is alot worse, My friend invited me to play WoW again (Yeah, I know) and there's a guild on the server called "The cake is a lie" and I asked the guild leader if he knew where it originated from, he didn't.
