Companion Cube Steam Machine canceled after Dbrand angers Valve

When Valve announced its cube-shaped Steam Machine back in November, one company asked the most obvious question: What if the Steam Machine looked like a Companion Cube from Portal? Manufacturer Dbrand then took the idea and ran with it, and more than 15,000 people signed up to buy one. After months of anticipation, Dbrand unceremoniously pulled a YouTube video promoting the Steam Machine Companion Cube accessory and removed it from the company’s website last week.
