    I was playing earlier and noticed that they look pretty similar.

    Tom Morello is the guitarist for Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave.

    Louis.

    It's simple really.

    Valve doesn't allow black people into their office, so they had to use Morello instead. He is obviously the perfect candidate for the job, considering his black features yet distinct lack of actual blackness.

    Have you ever seen a picture of a black dude in Valve? I didn't think so.

    Going through the commentary, Valve have at least 2 black employees.
