you didn't read it properly did you?

We just like the way they look, swaying in the gentle breeze created by a million people simultanously fainting from shock at the news that Portal is free.

it's a joke i believe

I did but do explain the joke if you can. What do they refer to as "strings"?

Strings literally attached to the game. "Fortunately, they're entirely decorative. We just like the way they look, swaying in the gentle breeze created by a million people simultanously fainting from shock at the news that Portal is free." Real strings swaying in the gentle breeze.

This. You can download the game, and play it free forever... However, at least 1 person purchased the game yesterday... I would know :P

I wonder if they could clear up that part about the SDK. I originally thought this meant anyone could get it to play mods such as PVK2.
