I'd say the Half-life series and Portal series are related, but Portal is less dark and I'd only consider the Borealis cannonical. Day of Defeat and Counter Strike could have a similiar universe. Team Fortress Classic and TF2 could be similiar if you count the picture of the TFC Engineer patting the TF2 engineer on the head. |

Half-Life and Portal do take place in the same universe. There's the Borealis, then there is Cave Johnson referencing Black Mesa and claiming they stole technology from him. I'm pretty sure there are some other references but they do in-fact take place in the same universe. Not too sure about Team Fortress, not a big fan. Never played Day of Defeat, so I'm lost on that one. Then L4D as mentioned, takes place in our world in a "what-if" scenario, so to say. |

Ok, I'm going to summarize what I know: L4D is the main universe (alternate path of reality, so to speak) TFC and TF2 are in the same universe; confirmed by TF2 engineer's dad being TFC's engineer The CS series and DoD might be in the same universe but that's up to Valve to decide, I figured they're war games of real-life battles (WW2 and USA's War on Terror) so they would be in that vein; however: CS, Ricochet and Deathmatch Classic are (at least by the Steam store pages) to be in the same universe, at different points in time. The HL series and Portal series are 100% confirmed, Portal references Black Mesa several times and vice versa. And finally, Alien Swarm is more likely than not in it's own universe. |
