Portal's GLaDOS Invades Garmin nuvi GPS Units (Video)
Of all the virtual characters out there in video game land, the artificially intelligent entity known as GLaDOS has to be one of the creepiest. She proclaims that she is still alive after the end of Portal, only to invade Rock Band a short while afterwards. I guess rocking out isn't enough for her just yet.
I personally use the British English voice option for my Garmin nuvi 250, but if you're looking for something a little more digital and a lot more creepy, then you'll want to check out the new GLaDOS voice pack. It's not an official release from Garmin, but the GLaDOS voice pack is a great pet project from Ryan Van Middlesworth . I just hope GLaDOS doesn't suddenly start giving me wrong directions.
This was a triumph. I'm making a note here. Huge success...
