The origin and definition of ''It was worth the weight''

Worth the Weight

A joke about the heavy founder of Valve, Gabe Newell, a game developer that creates great games but is terribly slow. It stems from Gabe himself saying that a certain game will be "Worth the wait" when it comes out,the original line, however, did not use the word “weight”, but rather “wait”: “After 9 years in development, hopefully it would have been worth the wait.” It is often used to mock Gabe’s weight and large physique.

For those of you who dont know who gaben is, here is the definition

Gaben is Valve Software's Gabe Newell's Password for Half-Life Fallout. Was found out by one member and exploited into the "fake gold post" where the member posted as Gabe.

It created a Youtube craze, just look it up on there.

Here are some examples:

Person 1: Half-Life 3 is taking an awfully long time to be released, and Gabe has no news... 

Person 2: Hopefully it will be worth the weight!
