"So grab a gun! You'll know when the test starts!"
OH was doing something on his lappy when he heard that and started laughing. Then he was totally hooked.
Also easy to miss is an explanation why Chell didn't run into any other test subjects...
Indeed, it's equally unlikely in either time frame. But then so is all the stuff that went on at Black Mesa, so at least it's consistent.
Wheatly says he got all the others killed trying to retrieve the portal gun. Chell was the last one left and the only one to survive even long enough to get her hands on the damn gun.
As for CJ, from the commentary and what I recall from early reports of the game CJ was probably going to turn up at some point as another personality sphere (probably the final boss.) Indeed, Valve said that the initial intention was to have Chell meet a succession of personality spheres rather than just Wheatly (the 'adventure sphere', 'inaccurate facts sphere' and the 'spaaaaace!!! sphere' were apparently left overs from that concept.)
As for what they ended up doing, you do hear CJ say that if they can't download his brain before he dies to do it with Carolyn instead, which is apparently exactly what they did.

Need to replay it with the commentary on. I've been playing Orange Box again, but I want to play Portal 2 again now.
Cave died before the technology was perfected. That's the only reason Caroline was put in there in the first place.
I just beat the SP portion of the game myself yesterday. Awesome game.
The 1st one is €9 on steam but if you buy them together it's only €4 more then just Portal 2...
I don't have anyone willing to play the co-op game with me. Moot point anyway I already sold the game
co-op ending and secrets
at the end, you find all the test subjects in cyro.
You could have asked here. I'm sure someone would have wanted to join you.

Why?
He's probably the type of gamer who buys a game, beats it and sells it. You should pity him.Why?Moot point anyway I already sold the game
How often do you really go back to play old games? I sure don't, hell, I have a huge pile of unplayed NEW games that I need to get through. Portal is about as replayable as a Big Mac. I can totally understand the concept of getting a return on the game after being done with it. Shame about missing out on the co-op though. Lot's of fun.
Of course I don't sell off my old games... but I think that might be a flaw more than anything.

I've been back and played Portal 1 numerous times, I go back to quite a few games. Valve games especially.
Some of them we do. I'm not saying getting rid of a stack of old games isn't a good idea but boasting about getting it finished (but not completely) and sold straightaway is just baffling.
Bloody hell, I still have games around that I probably haven't played in the best part of a decade or more. Hell, some of them I've never even completed. Same with books and DVDs. To be fair though, most of my games are PC games and they have never really been worth selling in any case.
Yeah, I cannot afford to spend SIXTY BUCKS on a video game. 
I buy it, play it in a week, sell it off, and make most of my money back. It's a sweet deal.
I'm not on X-Box Live so I couldn't do the co-op online.
It's okay though I'm watching a YouTube walkthrough of the co-op as we speak, by two people who are complete morons and take ten minutes to figure out every puzzle. You'd think they'd work out the puzzles before recording it in HD and uploading it onto YouTube

Why didn't you just watch the whole thing on YouTube? You could have saved yourself even more money.
