Valve has one of the coolest offices we've ever seen (as you may remember from our studio tour), but one thing they didn't have last time was a real-life sentry gun to help protect against intruders. That has now changed.

The sentry gun above, modeled after the sentry gun from Team Fortress 2, was created by WETA, the special effects team. It monitors the room while emitting noises taken directly from the game -- although, no, it doesn't actually shoot intruders. Check out the impressive bit of fan service in action in the video below.
