Now, what does this have to do with video games? Well, after doing some digging, I found Babel Research's website (http://www.babel-research.eu/) and, sure enough, look at the two symbols at the bottom of the page? Seem familiar? Also, if you look quick enough, an image of a cat appears at the bottom left hand side of the page, and in the source, at the bottom, the text appears <!WASITACATISAW>. Was it a cat I saw? If you remember from Half life 2, barney is always spooked about a cat.
Also (not as deep this time), the sound effects used in the video were EXACTLY the same used in half life 2. Coincidence?
Now, there is debate if this is real valve stuff or fan stuff. I'm banking on valve.
So what is this? An AR advertisement for the next half life game? Happening during the 6 hour war? Or just an overly obsessed fan video? Who knows?

There's a site with some of the secrets to the sites related to this.
Just found this interesting.
