One of the biggest video games out there is called coincidentally enough, "Portal". It's very well done, and very entertaining, without needing to be a horribly misguided piece of electronic poison that pre-programs our kids to be serial killers.*
Portal is really fun, I highly recommend it. In the game, you are given the ability to open up portals in walls, floors and ceilings. You use this new skill to navigate your way through increasingly complex situations. The game requires you to learn how to think differently. You are lured into taking on harder challenges with the promise of cake.

Form # 29827281-12
There's an 827. Both forwards and backwards. Interesting.
Also, if you add up the first number you get 39, which if multiplied, makes 27. By itself that one is not that great, but I find it fascinating that if you now look at the form number as an equation, you get this,
39 - 12 ='s 27...
The number does a bunch of really funny things like that. I'll leave the rest unsaid so you can work them out for yourself, if you'd like.
Many of our games are riddled with these Interdimensinoal Easter Eggs.The Original Super Mario Bros game is hilarious, if you're paying attention. Same with Legend of Zelda.
Enjoy the hunt!
