This article is filed under Characters.Gabe Newell (Alias GabeN, Gay Ben or G.A.B.E.N.) is the co-founder of Valve Corporation, the company responsible for popular video games such as Half-Life, Portal, Team Fortress 2 and Left 4 Dead.
History[edit]
Gabe Newell was born in 1962, and he was the most intelligent man at Harvard University, causing a huge number of teachers to lose their job. He replaced all of them! Then with his gigantic brain, he went to Microsoft, only to be fired by Bill Gates for hacking his high-tech computers. During his time in unemployment he became so depressed he began to eat his weight in food every day. Gabe's huge stockpile of money from his days at Microsoft began to dwindle quickly due to his newfound eating habits. It would be the next spring (after Gabe's hibernation) before he would answer a newspaper ad looking for a helping hand...
Valve Corporation[edit]
Before Gabe turned it into a videogame company, Valve was a plumbing syndicate, founded by two famous plumbers, but the syndicate went bankrupt thanks to Gabe wasting all their money on food. So, he decided to turn the old plumbing corporation into a merry land of fun, joy, and Russians. This was a drastic business transition but it earned the company a big enough profit to keep itself afloat while still being able to manage Gabe's monstrous appetite.
