Interactive Portal Shirts – Now you’re thinking with Portals

by Kireas on Nov.16, 2009, under Games

Came across these shirts on ThinkGeek, and now I want a pair.

The cake is a lie.

The cake is a lie.

These two shirts show in the portal whatever it is that the paired shirt is facing, thus creating the illusion of a portal.

From the ThinkGeek website:

    P.S. – Pay attention to GLaDOS’ promise of cake. This may well apply to the shirts, remember. When you figure it out, you’ll be as sad as I was. I still want them.
