I just noticed that one of the other games--1...2...3...Kick It--had an update today. Here's what it says in the Update Notes:
Oh my God... GLaDoS perfected Portal technology! Its Black Mesa all over again!
SHE WILL TEST US ALL!
TEST US ALL!
TEST US ALL!
Look at all the other Potato Sack...
No, he's right. The portal gun can pick up objects and move them. Not shoot them, but if we want an in-game explanation, maybe they couldn't get it to that point.
Or they simply bought them and use them like any business would. We were assuming that all that stuff you saw from Black Mesa wasn't commercially available. Its possible that in the world of Half-Life things like HEV suits, medical assistance stations, and zero-point energy manipulators were...

Anyone else think this product may be part of a package like the original Portal? I mean all the games they mention to compare it to--Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat, Team Fortress, Portal, and Alien Swarm--were done in that way, so perhaps this part of a package?
Dare I say, an Episode 3...
TWICE.
(Nerbacular Drop was the indie proto-game from Digipen that lead to the creation of Portal.)
I applaud Valve for not only giving a chance to independent developers--straight out of college, no less--the opportunity to work on a main-stream (and award-winning) game, but also for...
