Default Portal Gun VS Gravity Gun

From the Valve Games What one would you like to own more the Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device "Portal Gun" or the Zero-Point Energy Field Manipulator "Gravity Gun"?

I think the Portal Gun is cooler but what do you think?

Finally a thread I'm interested in. This is pretty hard. I have so many fond memories of slicing zombies in half with saw blades flung from the gravity gun. I've also more recently falen in love with throwing myself around the world in Portal. The Portal gun is able to make crazy portals and pick things up that are near while the gravity gun can pick things up that are quite far away and throw them far at high speeds. Oh dear this is a toss up really... Wait... I forgot one thing! The organic gravity gun! That makes gravity gun win for sure. Throwing the combine will never get old.

Edit: Dog also has a gravity gun and Dog kicks ass.
Edit: So does Gordon Freeman. +3 kick ass.
Edit: Chell is ugly.

I wonder how a real Portal gun would effect gravity. I mean, if you put one on the floor and one on a wall would you get sucked into the wall or something? Wait, wait, what if you shot one into space and one on the ground. Once it hits something would it form an earth destroying super vacuum? Woah, what about this. What if I put one in the desert and one under the Atlantic ocean? Yep, Portal technology would be pretty fun I suppose.

It would be fun to shoot one at Mars and one on Earth.
Now your thinking with Portals.

Do you think doing that would kill Earth or make Mars habitable? That is the real question.

No I don't think that because Portals arn't Black-Holes, Portals don't suck up everything thats around them like the wall there attached to. Portals only suck up things that walk or go through them like cubes.

Well it is only natural that if you place one portal in a place with an atmosphere and the other in a vacuum that the portal would begin to suck in air to create equilibrium.

Gravity Gun for me. The Portal Gun is amazing, but I couldn't believe how cool it was to pick practially any object off the ground and through it at the combine with the Gravity Gun. That big blade in Ravenholm was perfect for it too.
