Wheatley: Difference between revisions

Video game-wise, Wheatley appears to be an upgraded version of GLaDOS's Intelligence Core (the one telling the cake recipe), with a blue "eye" and three dots, though Wheatley has dots only on his right side. From early screenshots and the Portal 2 E3 teaser trailer, the model also appears to have been greatly improved and more detailed, with a wider range of emotions.  

Wheatley's Cockney accent heard in the "Meet Wheatley" video shown at E3 2010 uses a placeholder voice provided by Valve animator Richard Lord.[3] Due to very positive feedback, Valve considered at some point making the voice official.[7] Later Lord himself emphasized that his voice was temporary, saying that "theres no way you will be dissapointed with the final voice - im over teh moon with who it might be." [sic],[4] until it was announced that Stephen Merchant, who also has a British accent, would provide the final voice.[2]
