Turns out that lil then a month ago Valve Software (the dudes from Steam and halflife)
registered the following domain names :
gamerlifemovie.com
gamerlifethemovie.com
Now the question is why and how and what ? If you google the above domain names you will get some results about Halflife the movie and some non game related stuff that Valve is working on. So basically i am pretty clueless why Valve registered these domain names. Valve is not a company who just registers a bunch of domain names for defensive purposes. Usually they register domain names for a project or a new game. In this case it would be a movie ?
Guess we’ll have to wait and see (unless Gabe wants to reveal more info, mail me !).
The WHOIS record is as follows :

Valve Corporation
