3

What's that funny symbol?

- Valve

I think it's some kind of indian luck rune

I notice that 3 looks like a sideways ω, which is the symbol used to represent an ordinal number larger than all finite ordinal numbers.

In other words Valve might see 3 as essentially meaning infinity, and is thus unreachable. No matter how many new versions they make, they can never get to 3.

I feel old that I remember when people made this joke about Capcom - That they didn't know how to count to 3. Now it's just Valve, it's for all their games instead of one, and I feel like it's been true way longer than I could make the joke about Capcom lol.

For context, there was like a million versions of Street Fighter 2. (SF 2 : Champion Edition, SF II: Turbo, Super SF II: New Challengers, Super SF II: Turbo, Hyper SF II, it went on and on).
