Is there a chance Valve did this on purpose? An NDA isn't anything new, but they didn't have people sign any and a simple in game notice, to not share information, is pretty much the same, as telling people to not think about a purple elephant, the second you mention it. Marketing is everything these days and all I see is a ton of news and people talking about this game. You almost couldn't have done it any better way.
