    "You can say no. He'll get over it. Eventually." GLaDOS is amazing ♥

    Nothing is stronger than the love between two nerds.

      What about the love between 3 nerds.....bewm

    • @mysterymarezz

      Just as strong, I suppose.

    Every once in awhile if I'm feeling a little bit down, I come back here and read the comments and it cheers me right up again. I love all of you guys, thank you so much for watching my proposal and taking the time to comment.

      Gary, I might just be a foolish teenager, but this is the best proposal I have ever seen. I saw this video years back when I realized I could make my zombie survival map a reality in Left 4 Dead 2, and this proposal has inspired me since. I wish you the best man, and i’m sure i’m not the only one that you inspired with the project. Just know you made the day of many people, not just your wife and inspired many more.

    The best thing about it was all the marriage jokes Ellen McLain made, but still keeping it in the idea of it just being how the character of GLaDos is, making it seem almost as true as the game itself.

  • @BonnieBugsy
    @BonnieBugsy 12 років тому +99

    "To ensure that you are fully engaged."
    I just now got that.

  • @enderchick1570

    love how GLaDOS drops hints like : engagement , blushing , " trapped with someone the rest of your life " ,and stuff like that

    @SinisterPixel 8 років тому +54

    It took me a while to catch that those weren't just lines from the game GLaDOS was repeating. The map was really well done and the scripting was ingenious (all those wordplays).

    Thank you Gary Hudston and those that worked on this project, as an indie studio owner, and lead programmer for another studio, I now know EXACTLY what I will do when I meet someone that I love enough to want to marry them. I only hope it can be as well done and touching as this was. I really wish there was a reaction video for this.... I want to see her say yes damn you!

    The voice was funny, I love how it said "blissful." This was a very original proposal.
    The side-effects of the emotional testing were so funny! Lucky for me I don't have knees... because I'm a snail. XD *snail blushes * Do you know what music was playing at 6:56? I've been trying to find that for a while!

    • @thevision3150
      @thevision3150 9 років тому +2

      Ellen McLain basically proposed for him lol
      But this is so cute and romantic anyway!
      I don't know that music, but the song after it is Exile Vilify.

    @JanuaryGirl1 12 років тому

    I loved this. I teared with a squeal when it got to the chapel, even though I already knew what was coming. I love it when people use something that interests them and is interactive for proposals. Whether it's a treasure hunt on the beach, a skywriter, a video game, a song sung by the band at a concert or a hijacked question and answer session at a convention, it's all the same. We try to ask the one we love to spend the rest of our lives together.
