Remember the Half Life 3 trademark that cropped up last week? Well that did seem a little rumour happy at the time and it’s recent disappearance (of the trademark) suggests that it could have been a hoax overall, or the legal team at Valve doing a fine job of covering their tracks, who knows! This new one however seems all that more legit as Portal 3 gets trademarked, but also passed further legal authentications with the OHIM (Office of the European Union).
Either trolls are getting brave and risking fraud charges, while also being through enough to fool several major legal departments without Valve catching on, or this is the real deal. However, this doesn’t mean squat without a game announcement.
Trade Mark Name: Portal 3
Trade Mark Number: 012190286
Officially Checked: Yes
The rumour mill is in full swing recently, with Valve working on the SteamOS thing, SteamBox and all kinds of little projects. Yet you have to think, if Valve really are trying to take a bigger chunk of the gaming market, they’re going to need some games! Portal, Half Life, Source and a few others are prime real estate to launch their SteamBox and we have to keep hoping they’ll see the light of day soon.
