They now have a level one [[Team Fortress 2|Sentry Gun]] [[De Fictionalisation|in their lobby]]. They also have the ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YR0WN55p_zI absolute best]'' snack bar in the whole gaming industry. <ref>Although [[Big Fun|who'd be surprised by that]]?

In April 2012, their [http://www.gameinformer.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer-Components-SiteFiles/imagefeed-featured-valve-employeehandbook/Valve_5F00_Handbook_5F00_LowRes.pdf employee handbook] was leaked to the Internet. A very informative piece, that somehow manages to make them even ''more'' awesome.

* [[Arc Number]]: For some bizarre reason, Valve is continually stuck on 2. None of their series ever seem to reach a 3rd game. (Thus spawning the [[Memetic Mutation|meme]] "Valve can't count to three!") ''Half-Life 2'', ''Left 4 Dead 2'', ''Team Fortress 2'', ''Half-Life 2: Episode 2'', ''Portal 2'', ''[[Zero Punctuation|Manchester United 0]]''. Now they're even making a second game for [[DOTA|a series they didn't start]].
** Not to mention they're on their second engine; the increasingly dated Source engine.
