I must say, your Portal cake has a lot of personality, even if it is a little on the tipsy side. Shame about the Nuka-Cola; whenever I saw it in Fallout, I always imagined it as being this ideal combination of Coke and Dr. Pepper with a little extra je ne sais quoi. I was hopeful the mint would fulfill that purpose, but alas, no dice. Honestly, I'm tempted to try a few of these recipes out myself.... if only I could cook. Even the simpler things like the Sims Autumn Salad would probably turn into a Homer Simpson cereal fiasco for me.
Gotta make that Portal cake, as a fellow gamer-baker.
Warning for those planning on making the pretzels: I've made pretzels before, and SERIOUSLY it takes FOREVER but it's hard to screw up pretzels - they are very tasty. I made mine into some standard pretzel shapes and some Atari-logo shapes.

Fab article, and, since he's too scared to try baking a full-on portal cake, my boyfriend is currently downstairs baking up a batch of these bad boys: http://www.snackordie.com/2007/10/portal_cake_cookies.html
Only he's substituting red skittles for red hots, cause UK.

This is an amazing article. I, with probably many others on this site, will try the Portal cake next time we have a birthday or party coming up. The other recipes are also good for general snacks and meals. And being one that can't cook, this might save my life later down the road.
That's what I was looking forward to seeing. The photos.Chimaera said:
Oh little cake, you tried so hard.
The lab, where you can see all the food, plus some extras that didn't get mentioned in the article. [http://www.flickr.com/photos/catsininkwells/sets/72157623169863973/]
I'll be honest Nova, the Prospekt of you making a cake form a valve game was a little hard for me to believe at first.
Good article, am current deciding the likelihood of being able to create an entire party (as in dancing/drinking party not a group of mates for raids and what not) entirely catered with video game recipes. Fair to say you have inspired me somewhat.
Oh and those pretzels looked amazing.
One thing I should mention is the foods mentioned here were not overly healthy, besides the salad, a wider range of healthier options would be interesting to look at. If only just to go slightly against the whole unhealthy gamer image often portrayed

One time my brothers and I tried to make that soup from Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. We mixed canned pumpkin and salmon, and used cream instead of the cheese. I didn't think it was that bad, actually, although the salmon and the pumpkin didn't blend very well.
It was more funny than anything

Am interested in making the Nuka, but what the hell is Squirt! and what's the Australian version of it?
I'm not much of a cook, but my Portal cake turned out fantastic. It was delicious.
I should give these other ones a try.
