    Damn. I was just in another thread defending them for taking down that tf2 thing. But Portal64 was a very different kind of thing IMO and seemed more like a demonstration of technological capabilities rather than trying to mow Valve’s lawn. I suppose it did seem to use a lot of their assets though.

    The fact that it’s Nintendo’s IP seems the key thing here.

    So did Nintendo get Valve to do this, or is Valve just covering its back from the notoriously-litigious Nintendo?

    Pretty uncharacteristic for Valve, wonder if something changed in their legal department. In any case, what a shame. This was quite an impressive project.

    It’s called “Team Fortress: Source 2” btw.
