Fun fact:

There was actually 4 games planned with the fourth one being an epic End Game style cross over finally of Portal, TF, Left for Dead, CS, and Half Life all coming together to fight the combine But unfortunately the series only had a Half Life and decayed down to 2 games in each series.

I think portal was supposed to be in the HL2 universe, at least at some point... obviously l4d and tf2 are not.

They are canonically in the same universe, there are references to Black Mesa in Portal 2

People getting whoosed by this is hilarious. Nicely done.

I think the TF2 crossover is just a little too ridiculous.
