"sold as a retail product on Steam" I don't think the writer actually knows the definition of retail.

But I agree. [editline]20th November 2013[/editline] The Developer name on MODDB is 'Crowbar Collective' [url]http://www.moddb.com/company/crowbar-collective[/url] "Crowbar Collective, formed by the Black Mesa Development Team, is a new game studio."
So will it be renamed Black Mesa: Source to reflect the change?

These devs really deserve the money, but I finished the game for free ages ago :v:

I suspect Valve is using them to demonstrate a new engine since they currently don't have a game in production that would fit it. They are definitely closer to Valve than other mod makers.
