[QUOTE=TheBorealis;53196164]Gabe actually mentioned HL two or more times during the Artifact presentation :v: Also they have Portal cake mix, the Portal cake was based off a cake from a local cake shop, maybe they asked for the recipe?

[QUOTE=TheBorealis;53196164][t]https://cdn.arstechnica.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/IMG_2560-1440x886.jpg[/t][/QUOTE] Curious as to why they have 360 versions of Portal 2 rather than PS3 versions, or why they have console versions in general for at least L4D and L4D2, both games I know have retail PC versions because I own them. Maybe they care about the "platinum hits" label of L4D, but I don't see that on either L4D2 or Portal 2.
[QUOTE=153x;53198397]hey, I have that brown 70s Aperture mug. It's tiny but makes a nice bookshelf piece[/QUOTE] Didn't know they were so small. From the HL thread [QUOTE=Blade Rx69;53197211]The 70s diner mugs were sold in the old Valve store. They appeared on a few other stores like ThinkGeek but these days it looks like eBay is the only option.[/QUOTE] Might like one (less now I know they're so small), shame they're not sold anymore

[QUOTE=DoktorAkcel;53201092]Maybe because PS3 versions were handled by EA?[/QUOTE] Yeah, but PS3 versions of Portal 2 were the fancy cross-play buy-one-get-a-PC-copy-free we're-tired-of-Microsoft's-shit ones. I'd think they'd at least have one copy of it if for no reason other to acknowledge that they did crossplay "successfully" all the way back in 2011.
The PS3 version of Portal 2 including a Steam key is a big reason why I became invested in PC Gaming. It has a special place in my heart.
