\nCounter Strike: Global Offensive players think they\u2019ve found a Portal-related ARG in the game.
YouTuber Valve News Network has gathered together a bunch of in-game clues that point to the possibility of another ARG that could be leading up to the reveal of a new title \u2013 via PCGamesN .
The first clue comes from the boarded up Room 3 in the newly rolled out Danger Zone\u2019s Blacksite map. YouTuber snaileny accessed the room via a secret passage and found a handful of computers inside, emitting a code.
Redditors assembled to decode the message and discovered that it translated to the first line of Portal\u2019s ending song, Still Alive; \u201cThis was a triumph, I\u2019m making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.\u201d
There are more weird things that have popped up that players haven\u2019t figured out yet, including cameras on the map that lead to a shipwrecked boat, and detailed test pattern textures that don\u2019t appear in Blacksite.
Redditor birkir has created a list of oddities that may be a part of this potential ARG, while Valve News Network is going to continue with his datamining efforts to see if he can root out anything else significanct.
As he points out in his video, Valve included an ARG in Portal ahead of the Portal 2 announcement, so it could be at it again in the run up to the announcement of another new game.
Either way, the investigation continues for now.<\/p>\n
