Black Mesa hands down. They were the better company because their products were not impractical and had a clear goal in the field of science for the company, unlike Aperture who kept fighting an uphill financial battle to stay alive. Sure Black Mesa caused the end of civilization with a bad accident, but Aperture was on its way to doing the same thing. Plus compared to the number of deaths that occurred for each company, Black Mesa was way safer than Aperture.

This is true

Aperture Science PR Department

We didn’t do the same thing though! Plus, they stole our funding!

No, what you were doing was screwing around with the different multiverses playing god, being a careless wreck in pursuit of your testing initiatives, easily putting not only our own Earth in jeopardy - but countless other ones! Perhaps instead of blaming others for your financial failure, you could actually focus on being smarter with your decisions in the field of science rather than have the idealism and practicality of a third grader.

Aperture didn't cause the end of the world as we know it so I'm slightly more inclined to be on their side

Wait, this post just me think about the Half Life x Portal connections and how weird it would be to see an alient grunt or combine soldier walking around in one of the portal games

Black Mesa because of their soda machines.

Aperture Science PR Department

The obvious answer would be to vote for Aperture Science. Anyone else caught voting for Black Mesa will be thrown in the incinerator room.

Didn't see HR throwing people into firepits at Black Mesa. Plus they got pensions so...have fun with bankruptcy!

Black Mesa is better at covering up their missing astronauts.

Black Mesa. I wanted to work there when I grew up. Then, the resonance cascade happened.

Black Mesa is cooler, you can talk to real Aliens there and not some gay robots

Clearly it's Aperture Science! They never waiver in their commitment to do what they must, because they can.

of course is Black Mesa. In Black Mesa you can use crowbars ,pet houndeyes ,using cool experimental weapons , ruining microwave casseroles , going to the borderworld xen and so much more. And what aperture science have just a boring portal puzzle that dont have any sense. And the whole place is run by a crappy AI #black mesa for ever (sorry if it was very rude)

Black Mesa is better, because they don't create something that kill tons of humans, and don't make cubes from humans!

Svetava The Tigris

Black Mesa has charismatic people there, they're friendly. Like, Barney Calhoun, or Eli Vance In Aperture, everything will try to kill you... "Accidentally" (I am looking at Cave Johnson and Wheatly) (P.S i feel bad for Rattman)

DON'T FUCK WITH THE SCIENCE TEAM! Black Mesa is far, far ahead of Aperture, because they actually did something useful for the people and improved human science, and that end of the world accident was caused by G-Man, not by Black Mesa mistakes, and even more, Black Mesa survivors actually saved rest of humanity from the Combine, and even Wallece Breen forced humanity to survive instead of die in hopeless battles. So Black Meas wins this vote for me,and Aperture can suck their igniting lemons.
