Half Life was so freaking cool. You shot zombies, and combines, and people, and it was great. But Half Life 2 was even better! It was better graphics, had a better story and had new characters. The Game play was like Bio shock, one minute you could be sniping combine soldiers and the next it could have a zombie appear behind you out of nowhere.
So you're this scientist named Gordon Freeman, on your way to work in Black Messa. You have to go through some police border security thing at the train station. The police are horrible, they throw citizens into their luggage and beat people with no reason. They wear gas masks and have a "stun stick", which they use to beat people. Metro police are annoying, so when you get to shoot them it gets fun.
They also drive Combine APC tanks, which they get aggressive when you get near. It's strange as the further into the game the more harsh they are. They also have gas masks, but run like they're school boys in a jogging session. They also talk murmured, and will chase you for some time if you throw something at them.
Later in the game, you arrive in this place where Barney is undercover as a Metro police combine, and tells Dr.Kleiner your trying to get to his lab. But then you blow his cover and he says to escape from the window. Then he gives you a crowbar. This is where the action begins in it.
You basically beat the crap out of Metro police and some combine's, which is amusing as they fall as if they just passed out. There's also a glitch that rarely happens with Metro police where if you shoot them in the head with your weak pistol, they stand there with their arms out. They don't move unless you get close.
Then they corner you and knock you out, and you hear Alex Vance kill them before they finish you. Getting to the labs is a series of puzzles, such as vending machine doors and other. Kleiner can't find his pet headcrab, a type of Zombie. Barney wont stand for it.
Afterwards and a short time later, theres this hard elevator part where you have to shoot falling objects away from you with the gravity gun, one slip up and you die. This part is hard and becomes annoying when you have to retry about 6 times to do it.
Amnesia The Dark Descents, has been out on Steam since the year 2010. But as the sequal, "Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs" is coming out soon, I thought I might as well review this one. There are going to soon be two good Amnesia games!
So the game is a horror survival, where you're this guy and you purposly erased your memory to kill something, blah blah, and you have Amnesia. All you can remember is your name and something is hunting you. There are a bunch of enemies in Amnesia but some of them are naked. Yes, that is why ESRB rated it M for nudity. And I am only going to mension some enemies.
First type of enemy is a Servant Grunt, a type of Gatherer which is the most common enemy in Amnesia. It chases the player, Daniel, for a short amount of time and is really fast. It attacks by clawing and has a huge mouth that lets out a low-piched demonic breathing noise. It is also only of two monsters break things in it's way, such as closed or locked doors, tables, chairs and other. It is also the only one wearing anything... chilling.
Second enemy is a Brute, another type of Gatherer but with one messed up head (Seriously, it's head is an upside-down horse shoe sort of shape with a huge mouth, no eyes and no nose.) This is one of the naked enemies. Eugh. It screams and is two times faster than the Servant Grunt, and also claws you faster. It also staggers and breathes heavily. To see how dangerous it is, here is a quote from the Amnesia Wiki:
The Brutes are the rarer, more dangerous type of the Gatherers. They deal so much more damage than a Servant Grunt that they are able to kill Daniel in a single hit, although if the player is at full health it is possible survive one hit from them.
Next is the Suitor... boy does this one like nudist beaches. They have no eyes and are one of them with huge black holes for eyes and another black hole for their mouth. They also have; well, what looks like a carrage weel made of Iron around their neck, peircing it. These are slow, not so dangerous enemies although they are pretty powerful.
But what I find weird is how every monster staggers like they've had too much beer. Also, the game dosen't really need to be rated M for Mature (17+ in The USA, 18+ in the UK) just because the monsters are naked. I mean, when a monster like a Brute just broke down a door out of no where and is chasing you, are people really going to stop and stare at their crack?
Also, the music when they're chasing you is pretty cool. It has the dark, chilling atmosphere and gets louder as they get closer. The game is set in a castle, you get notes and potions for health, etc. But this is one of them annoying games where it has the stupidest bar in gaming: The Sanity Bar.
Okay, Sanity Bars are alright, because I would get scared staring at a Suitor for ten minutes while it staggers along moaning at me, but really - you lose it in the dark? If you stand in the dark too long, your Sanity slowly drains. Is Daniel 7 years old? Really, I find that funny. He can stand Suitors chasing him, Brutes screaming and braking down doors, but not standing in a dark room without his lantern. That is funnier than Waynes World.
Also, there are things that you can pick up along the way, which are:
Tinderboxes, which light candles.
Oil, for lighting your lantern so 7 year old Daniel dosen't go insane.
Potions, which refill things like Health and Sanity. They're pretty useful.
Notes, which can help or be stupid and waste time.
Books, ditto.
Crowbars, used for braking doors or rock piles and attacking monsters.
Axe, ditto except for rock piles.
A shovel, which can't be used just carried.
A pig carcus. Ew.
A chair, which you can carry. "Take a seat, class..."
A little golden statue which Pewdiepie calls Stephano!
But Amnesia, although not scary, is a great game. ESRB warnings are Gore, Launguage (some Suitors mock your with swears), Nudity and Violence.
Old Games can be good... but obviously it is so with Rockstar Games!
This game is amazing. It came out in 2006 and took all Xbox 360, PS 2, PC and Wii players by shock, as if it was Grand Theft Auto using kids. This game is set that you, Jimmy Hopkins, has just arrived at a boarding school and everybody hates him. And what does he do to earn respect from them? Fight them.
First of all there are six chapters; each focusing to beat every gang in the School. First you fight the bullies, which is fun because you think the main antagonist, Gary Smith, is leading you to something exciting but he leads you to a sewage hole, in which you fight a huge crazy guy named Russell The Fight is basic, but fun and Russell then does help you a lot in other missions. The bullies throw pathetic punches and are easy to beat.
Next are preps, which are basically snobs. Their leader is a real rich snob called Derby Harrington, guarded by a huge dude called Bif Taylor. There is a pre boss fight where you box Bif, since the preps are known for their interest in "The Arts" such as Boxing, and other. Once you've beaten Bif, it seems the preps will now leave you alone. But Derby comes and encourages them that they wont stand for that, and you fight all of them in a boss fight with Derby. Pretty easy, but the Preps have a Boxing Style of fighting making them hard to hit as they dodge great. Derby is so rich, he has his own "Harrington House" on school grounds for the preps!
Third are the greasers, who try and look tough and wear Leather Jackets. This Boss Fight their leader's girlfriend starts a fight between preps and greasers, who are rivals anyway, and you have to follow Peanut to find out where Johnny is so you can fight him. They wont let you, so you have to fight them. Their style of fighting is hardcore, as they block great and can high kick to break your block. In the end, he furiously tries to beat you up when the cops appear. You run from the cops with a full trouble meter and chase Johnny. If you are successful he lands in the junk yard, but the greasers pull a chain over the entrance, tripping you off your bike. Pete helps get to the crane, but you must take out the other greasers that throw firecrackers, stink bombs and eggs first. Johnny rides around with a brass pipe whacking you over. Once Pete gets to the crane, it picks up Johnny's bike and you get in a fist fight. Easy, but kind of disappointing, as greasers are meant to be tough as nails.
There is also a mini boss fight, where you have to collect items for Lola and take down greasers. Norton, a huge dude finds you, and fights you with a huge sledgehammer. Brutal.
Next are the Jocks. I think this boss fight is the best one. It is well written, creative and tons of fun. You disguise yourself as the mascot, meaning that you help the Nerds ruin their game. Once they find out it is you, they throw modified rugby balls (I'm British, so Americans you can call the footballs. Sorry for the confusion!) that explode if you don't pick them up and launch them back, exploding on the Jocks. But the Jocks are stronger than usual in this one and can pick you up by the feet and hurl you around. You fist fight Ted's bodyguard then tackle Ted as he runs away like a wuss. But this is also the big game, and the whole audience sees you beat them. The Jocks are the toughest boss fight! Challenging and the mini boss is the Mascot Boy.
Fifth are the Nerds, which is the second best boss fight. It is very creative. You have to find the leader, Earnest Jones, and get him to help you destroy the Jocks. This is before the Jocks, let me say. You must fight the nerds until they give you information to get to him. Then it's fighting Nerds with ranged weapons while Earnest taunts you through a speaker. You have to destroy the transformer with your firecrackers or slingshot, then he runs inside the Observatory saying that the doors will protect him. You have to jump on the spud cannon he was shooting you with and knock down the Observatory doors. Then he has another spud gun, throws weapons and other things. You shoot the platforms he stands on to make him fall, then you take his pop rocket launcher and tell him that your his friend, not his rival. Pretty hard, yet very cool.
For the Sixth gang to fight, it's the townies. But you don't really need to fight them, except for fighting their leader Edgar with lead pipes. And do I mean, HUGE lead pipes. So then he helps you defeat Gary, who turns the school against you. His boss fight is easy as he uses the greaser style of fighting yet is very weak. Once you defeat him, he is expelled and you get 100% respect from all the gangs. Now you can do whatever you want to do.
There are also crazy ratings for this game, such as a lawsuit against it in America, it nearly banned or rated 18 in my country yet managed to be rated 15, and in Brazil it's banned. Yeah, bullying is a touchy subject and the nerds squeal when you punch them, but really, do you have to be that harsh with raitings?
Warnings from ESRB raitings are tobacco references, crude language, animated blood/violence, bullying, sexual themes (kissing), nudity (look for paparazzi mission), and biosexual relates (you can kiss certain boys) as well as obviously: violence. But Bully Scholarship will live on as an amazing game.
Hipsters, get off of that PS3 and Play some Atari!
Let me just say why I didn't write those past days. I was on holiday and trust me, it was 15 pounds for a internet Wi-Fi card for three minutes, and that wasn't worth it. But I'm back. So today there is a ton of Game Systems like Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, and so on. But what have people missed from the 20th Century? What do people underestimate? So, right now, here is the top 10 old game systems.
1) NES by Nintendo
There is a huge library of games for this. You see retro games which you can search for and play free online like Ghosts N Goblins, but they never save and often are not the full game. So you get this - The NES. It has such great games such as Castlevania, and a simple plugin with a nice controller. It is only 16 bit or 8 bit games, but graphics do not mean anything. This is better than Wii.
2) SNES by Nintendo
What happens when you take the NES and add better 32 bit graphics, better music and awesome games? You get the SNES! This was even so good some called it the Super Nintendo, or the original Xbox 360. The controller has a nice design and new L and R buttons which were new in the time of it. It now had four buttons and a better D-pad.
3) The Original Xbox by Microsoft
No, you idiots. The Xbox 360 was actually a sequel to this. I am actually surprised people missed this great piece of technology and just went straight to the sequel, the Xbox 360. It had some great games on it like Grand Theft Auto and Driver 3. There were so many good games on this and more than 2 control ports, which was new in it's day.
4) Play Station by Sony
There has been FOUR play station consoles! NES was great but there wasn't four, so this one had to be great. It had such games as Rocky and Independence Day, which had huge glitches and were yet still successful as games. It also introduced shapes as buttons and not letters, and a new thing of the time - video games on CDs. And a new exciting thing then - 64 bit games!
5) Atari 2600 by Atari
This one is the classic one. It had games that were 5 minutes long, which is crazy for the time now but long back then, and classic easy simple games like just "Tanks" and "Golf". The graphics were 8 bit, but that doesn't matter. The games were also amazing, yet somehow managed to keep simple and entertaining nevertheless.
4) Nintendo 64 by Nintendo
64 bit games were new and huge in the time. Although we don't care about graphics, these systems were in graphics wars back then. People didn't care if the game was good, they were all about the graphics and with Nintendo and Sega both in a race of time to beat each other with the greatest graphic games, Sega going for 32 bit they were won - with the 64 bit Nintendo console.
3) Commodore by Micro Computer
It was the end of graphic wars back in the 1980 to 1990's, and here comes computers! A great new invention where if you had one, you were the man! Text Adventure games were taking over, and this was the great new system for them. Kids were ape over this and back then computers were newer than any console now. This was being worshipped by teen gamers!
2) Sega Genesis by SEGA
SEGA had just lost the graphic wars, but they didn't care! Here comes the 16 bit Sega Genesis, instantly growing back the kid and teens to Sega and their games. Graphics were no big deal at that time, and this was amazing 16 bit heaven for gamers. It had amazing Castlevania games and such, making it the new Gamer Holy Grail.
1) Game boy colour by Nintendo
Nintendo didn't care either. The war had ended. Game boy was great, but Game boy Colour was amazing! All your favourite games on a small colour console sounded great, and it didn't dissapoint! It was amazing just the idea of a small portable system and not a huge heavy system. Portable Systems were new in that day, and popular as well.
A top five! Looking for the worst enemies they can be un-original, boring, or just not good enough. These also can be unmemorable. So with that out of the way, sit back and enjoy as I tell you the worst video game enemies!
5) Bully Scholarship Edition - Derby Harrington
Now before you berserk, Bully is a great game by Rockstar. But even being a Boss, he is the worst character. The suspense to beating him up and all the other preps you face, and then fighting him is easy. Most preps, even the weakest put up a fight. But he often lets his guard down, throws weak punches in all. And he is the Leader of the Preps! This is just... stupid. Can't it be Biff?
4) Bully Scholarship Edition - Jhonny Vincent
ANOTHER Bully one. This boss battle, another boss, is just beating up Greasers and running around with Jhonny on a bike randomly with a stick being not as such effective. He yells Im coming for you but looks like a moron and can't hit a boulder if it smashed his face.This boss fight is just terrible.
3) Minecraft - Silverfish
Now I love Minecraft. But even hardcore fans like me will agree that Silverfish are un-creative and just a real pain. They come in Hordes and are easy to kill, but annoying due to the fact they wont go away and keep spawning over and over in Strongholds. Their sound fx are annoying and they drop the stupidest things. They are un creative and dumb.
2) Portal 2 - Deffective Turrets
Portal 2 is the best Valve game aside from Half Life 2. But the turrets are amazing... except this one. They don't bother even trying to shoot and will say things like "If anyone asks, I killed you." But even the bad guy Wheatley refers to these as "crap turrets" as they really are stupid. They can't even shoot and could atleast have an attack.
1) Half Life 2 - Metro Police
Somebody put on a gas masks, running shorts and black boots and gloves, then run around with a stick in a limping fashion! These are the slowest and weakest enemies, and it's annoying when tons and tons of them corner you and whack you in the FACE with their stick. They also mumble and are just cheesy, as they run like a zombie. But it is funny watching the glitch where they run through a wall then die. I just really hate these...
So I did the best of 1990-2013, now the worst. These aren't meant to flip anyone off, so before you go ballistic in the comments respect my opinion. This Ten is NOT bad and one is worst like last time, so lets see and begin the countdown!
10) Facade
As if a cheap simulator wasn't enough, here comes FACADE! Yes, the crappy excuse of a first person simulator where you can steal things, be thrown out for saying things like Melon and easily crash it by answering the phone. One time, the game crashed on me with Trip (male) fingering his wife with a smug face! Then the AI also freezes, not only is it crap, but it took 5 years to make. Really?
And the RIDICULOUS time it takes to download is 1 hour, 40 minutes!
9) Duke Nukem Forever
Even the title is ignorant! Duke Nukem forever? Every snapshot Duke Duke Duke? Because who doesn't love controlling a witty blond douche bag who smokes all day and tries to save the Earth from aliens? Everybody! The trailer may make it look promising, but don't be fooled. Duke's full of himself. The scripting is also unfunny. Just the quote: Look at my a**... no, seriously do it! How is that funny? And to prove he's a douche, look at this:
Oh yeah, kids, be a steroid crazed gun-wielding maniac and you get all the girls! And this:
Okay, why the hell is Alex from Half Life in this? Is she cheating Gordon? YEAH STEROID ENCOURAGEMENT What the hell? And don't get me started on the one saying hail to your king...
8) Half Life: Blue Shift
This game... it came in the 2000's and Half Life 2 was in 1998... my god, it sucks, and you''d except since Half Life 2 was epic, a great game! The graphics are crap, and mostly I don't judge games by graphics, except this one's graphics are a joke to Half Life fans! But this is a joke. The voice recording sounds like Barney is a Windows 95 computer starting up and the enemies are just horrid - The zombies look like Freddy Kruger without his hat! And the characters all had their level of dumbness - Barney couldn't say open fire before he was shot, Otis is a fat policeman which doesn't belong in Half Life, and Scientists look like they're hailing/dancing to threats and not running! Oh and heavy human Grunts - the way they run is just - look for yourself.
7) Revenge of the Sunfish
I don't even know what to say to this. Basically, it's a crappy random game where you flirt with your keyboard, pick cute animals or get a scary face and other. It's like they went on MS Paint and drew some crappy stuff then stuck it in a power point... which they probably did! You touch a plant and get transported to being a popup destroying a stupid face! I am just speechless... download it and you'll see.
6) ET for the NES
Oh boy. So you're about 7 - and your playing this when you fall in a hole. What the hell were they thinking for this? You collect - well what looks like livers or drugs to make a telephone to phone home (pun in game) but one problem - you fall in holes that you can't get out for a glitch, Dr's chase you and pick you up then carry you to a temple - doing NOTHING to you and when FBI and Eliot run in to you they - die?
5) Roblox
ITS FREE... not. BE ANYTHING.... that you can afford. This is the weakest attempt at a 3D Sandbox mmo I have seen. The Admins ban for saying hi, BC discriminates NBC users for not having it, guest players are tortured, it costs for everything when the trailer says it's free but its not unless you want your robloxian to suck... and the Adds are just babyish.
My god this is one pile of crap.
4) Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest
First Castelvania was epic... die skeleton! But the second one.... crap. You are trying to clear a boss when the note comes up "WHAT A HORRIBLE NIGHT TO HAVE A CURSE" and you have to start at town. That sucks. And this is farming, because when you are cursed or you die you lose hearts, which you use to buy things to advance, so you gotta grind more skeletons! And the items are useless, the whip has more effect than all of them together.
3) LSD Dream Emulator
This game is weird. It's based on dreams from the designer, and if it's Japan we all know what's going to happen here, which is a real freak. From walking around giant feet to chasing a turd, you never know when behind you there's a head with arms. ARGH. Sheesh, LSD!
2) Bubsy 3D
This game is a pile of crap. Bubsy is like Duke Nukem and won't shut up. He throws it in your face constantly the games a freaking plat former saying WUT WUD A PWATFORMER BE WIFOWT PWATFORMZ every 2 seconds! He also says things like: Woah and Argh when he jumps and death he sounds like a moaning 5 year old raiging at ghosts and Goblins.
1) Call Of Duty
This ruined gaming forever. You always die at the end of each game and they're each disturbing in they're own way, like watching the last few seconds of a marine before they die of radiation and being burned. The game is also damn well too easy and witty lines are everywhere, so did a five year old write the script? The game sucks, the script sucks, the story sucks, and all it is is shoot shoot shoot. Most cut scenes don't do anything but be witty and swear, so this is the worst game every.
Screw you, Mordern Warfare, Black Ops, and Definatley Mordern warfare 4.
This Blog... well. Started few days ago and got so many views... thanks guys! So for a treat, lets look at the best games from 1990-2013. These are my opinions but you'll probably agree on most of these choices. Le us begin! 10 isn't worst and 1 best, but these are just at random. These are only games I have played or have high knowledge about - sorry Legend of Zelda Fans!
10) Half life 2
This game just blew my mind. Such a simple game about zombies and aliens into such an epic series - just wow. But hl2 has to be the series' best. I mean, you go from fleeing from police, finding Striders, to killing them with a crowbar! Gordon has to be the best character from valve of all time, his appearance attitude, I mean he's one hell of a guy.
9) Left 4 Dead series
Who thought when Zombies were overused, such a great game popped up out of nowhere? Tanks, Boomers, everything is creative. Like types of zombies and names for them out of pure mind. The simplicity and audio as well just makes it a must-have. So even you COD fan boys out there, go to Amazon and order this! Or Steam (which I 3>)
8) Team Fortress 2
Does Valve ever stop great games? Nope, which is amazing. The whole game is hilarious - from a Russian heavy who is obsessed with sandwiches to a scout who drinks Bonk all day. And the weapons are great, as well as the Idea. But this game is Valve at it's purest. Go down to steam and get it for free!
7) Portal
"Now your thinking with portals" is the best quote from Valve. VALVE WHY U OBSESSED WITH GOOD GAME MAKING? Not complaining though. The idea of jumping from one hole to another with teleportation, having a west-English accented Core following you and that - that damn cake! GLaDOS is such a moron she gets turned into a potato - POtaTOS!
6) The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Go on youtube. Search Skyrim Parody. Be amazed. Just the idea of flinging gaurds about by yelled Fus Ro Dah and then buying a house in Whiterun with a creepy slave who nibbles on bread for until death. This game is the best Elder Scrolls and sparked more parodies than Arena, Oblivion and the other games. Congrats, Dovahkin.
5) Garry's Mod
Since when did making people kick themselves in the head become stupid? With making Machnima videos to making zombies howl at a banana, this is one of the best Steam Sandbox games you will ever come across, so don't miss your chance to get it. Hate head crabs from half Life 2 killing you? THEN SHOVE THEM OFF A FLAT!
4) Amnesia: The Dark Descents
Okay, so you just bought the game, grab some oil and find a Gatherer. Another player? Hi could you help- ARGH! And you die. Not necessarily scary, but the most fun horror-themed game ever. I mean, what horror game could be better than running from zombies inside a haunted castle? Nothing! This game has only one problem - a sanity meter. BOY DO I HATE THEM THINGS!
3) Minecraft
The only game where you can go to Hell and beat a zombie pig to death - RIDING A PIG. Mojang released the classic Indie game Minecraft on November 2009, which was an instant hit. From surviving to Building a spinning balloon this is a classic. WELL DONE NOTCH! Who would of thought a great game from a fat Swedish man?
2) Bully: Scholarship Edition
When has beating the crap out of crazy people who tie headmasters up become boring? Rock star has really worked on this one, and it needs more players. IT DOES! You are new in a boarding school with morons - you must fight every leader of the gangs/cliques like Preps who are Snobs, Nerds, Bullies and Jocks. Each boss fight is unique in it's own way.
1) Call of Duty: World at War
Wait, you come back here and read this! Yeah, apart from it's screaming 12 year old fans and witty moments, the games were OK. When it was shoot shoot shoot and nothing else, it was crap. But when the scripting was great and the story-line was good, it made a good FPS. World at War was the best, but I haven't played the one where Captain Shepard kills you!
Notice in every COD you die? MW4: Radiation, then Shepard, boy is war tough. So yeah, that was my top 10 games 1990-2013!
You may of heard that, according to the official NASA website, we have time travel portals around the Earth discovered in 2012. Now, don't get excited, because these portals have not completed research and may be just something else. But I guess it is amazing.
Huh? What did you say?
We discovered waves around The Earth that occur when The Earth completes a full turn on it's axis (24 Hours), that act the behavior of portals and send time, because of the day and night circle. But lets dumb that down for you. So because the Earth turns and creates the Day and Night circle, it creates time-travelling waves which act like portals. Awesome, eh?
Can we go through them?
Er, we have no idea because as I said, they're still under research. They're very thin (compared to Earth anyway) and can only let small particles through and out. But then again, how do we get out? We don't have any idea. Maybe you get teleported. Maybe back a century. Maybe dead because of the Paradox if you weren't alive then, you didn't exist so you would be a ghost/spirit sort of thing. These are about a few kilometers in width and take a few light years to process an object through the void.
So this is short, but it hasn't had enough research as I think it should...
The Portal series is gaming at it's finest. From creative ways to kill a turret to finding that damn cake, this is a series you should play. But Wheatley - oh boy. Remember that time where you stare at the picture, and then you let in a little flying Robot Core with an English west accent, who tells you that you have brain damage? Yup, that's him. SPOILER WARNING.
Mad with power, he fakes helping.
He seems to help you for a large while. Like telling you about turrets, not diving head first into one-way death and persuading you the right way, he is a memorable Antagonist from the series. Until he gets transformed. GLaDOS puts him into a machine but she is ripped off from her body and replaced with Wheatley, who turns her into a potato. POTAtOS! But then GLaDOS yells at him, calling him a moron. Then throwing a tantrum, yells "Could a moron do this? Huh?" and smashes the elevator you're in, throwing GLaDOS in with you and then plumiting you into a deep, dark black hole. From then on, you and GLaDOS try and defeat this little moron.
Tantrums, Tantrums.
As well as this, he throws a load of tantrums in the game, such as singing I'm not a moron. But don't be fooled, Wheatleys full of himself. He also says: Okay, I'm going to kill you! At one point, taking a long time to persuade you to jump into a death pit. As much as this sounds suicidal you're gonna have to to advance in the game. Also, very early he says "Alright, they said if I disconnect myself from this I will DIE. So get ready to catch me - CATCH ME CATCH ME CATCH ME." But if you somehow do, the game is stuck until you let him hit the ground. It's scripted.
GLaDOS hates him.
Not only this, but he was GLaDOS' inner core, constantly insulting her and stressing her. Once in her body under control, he shows off and talks a bunch of crap. Also, Wheatley won't shut up about pens. What the heck is with pens and him? He won't stop directing you, which is nice for a while but is annoying when you're doing a complicated test chamber and he starts drooling on.
Eventually, this moron gets shot into space with Space Core. SPACE! He also orbits the Earth with him. Imagine if at night you looked out the window and saw him yelling at Space Core a million miles away! This is satisfying, as he calls a certain place his "lair." What a snob! So yeah, Wheatley? YOU ARE A MORON!
