this is so awesome! didn't really know where to put it, general or this. anyway.. got this off Kotaku.
basically, this awesome guy hired the Glados voice actor and some professional level designers to design custom Portal 2 stages for his girlfriend to play. at the end of the level.. well its just awesome! here's the youtube clip to watch! i don't wanna spoil anything!
When GLaDOS Asks You To Marry Someone, You Say Yes
Gary Hudston commissioned three spectacular custom-built Portal 2 levels complete with fresh dialog from the voice of GLaDOS, Ellen Mclain, just to ask his girlfriend to marry him. After watching the glorious spectacle unfold, I'm ready to marry the guy.
Over the course of this three-level marathon of pre-marital proportions, GLaDOS manages to find a way to melt our hearts without, you know, actually melting our hearts. Sadly there's no reaction video of Stephanie playing through the level, but I'd imagine there were happy tears shed and possibly the odd enthusiastic squeak.
Because that's what came through on my end. Shut up.
Update: Rachel "Miss Stabby" van der Meer dropped us a line to make sure credit was given where credit was due. So hey, credits:

Thanks, Stabby!
simply the most creative marriage proposal i've ever seen
edit: hmmphh maybe a mod can rename this to Portal2 Marriage Proposal? instead of just proposal
oh my god :D I would have liked a second video showing her playing it for the reaction throughout the last part when she gets called by her name etc ^^
After watching it through before i knew it i think i actually said yes ... then i snapped out of it in a manly fashion when i remembered thats not my name ... of course... .
That was so great! Stephanie must have been squealing in excitement. She probably jumped onto her BF and hugged and kissed him SO hard :D. The second level was awesome. It was MASSIVE.

What if she wasn't into video games let alone Portal ;o

I really hope she didn't know it was a custom build before she started playing. Suddenly hearing GlaDos say your name during some game must really freak you out
EPT
No one show my girlfriend.
