We don't know where this rumor came from, but there have been whisperings of a version of Valve's cake-pushing (it's a lie, we hear), environmental puzzlefest involving some kind of weird gun making its way onto the Wii. In true baby-punching* fashion, Valve has shot down rumors of the title's release on the Wii, as rep Doug Lombardi stated that it's "an extremely interesting idea, but there's nothing in product."

Of course, as with most of these gaming rumors, it just won't be taken out back and shot like a certain yellow dog. Doug added "not yet, anyway," at the end of his quote there, leaving us all wondering if this could happen. And, if it did, wouldn't it be the perfect Wii Ware download?


*Nobody at Valve punched a baby, to our knowledge. What they do on their own time, is their business.
