I’m sure you’ve all heard the old analogy for infinity and probability that an infinite amount of monkeys, typing at an infinite amount of typewriters, would eventually produce the entire works of Shakespeare? Sadly, our infinite amount of reporter monkeys is a little stupider than that. Instead of producing us a free copy of the works of Shakespeare, they churned out an interview with two man studio stabyourself.net responsible for the rather wonderful looking Mari0, a Portal/Mario crossover project. Although in retrospect, the fact that we could only afford to buy one typewriter for our monkeys to share between them probably didn’t help matters much.

"A while back, indie studio Stabyourself released one of the greatest video game mashups ever to be released for free, Mari0. Recently they announced that fans would be receiving a Special Edition of the Super Mario/ Portal crossover, bringing more hats, a new final boss, an updated campaign and online multiplayer… and more hats."
Mari0 developers talk the week before release, the aftermath, and what’s next
Honestly, I dunno if "releasing a game" counts as putting a file online, but still, okay port (Missed some interaction that was there in the original, but still definitely solid! Good thing it worked out for them and they still aren't in court, too, heh! :D
I still am kinda worried about my game being released and Activisions lawyers knocking on my door...-shivers-
Mari0 is freaking awesome. Seriously, huge props to the developers for all of their hard work. It's really amazing.

Developed by Stabyourself, Mari0 is a complete from scratch recreation of Super Mario Bros. with a focus on perfectly imitating the feel the 1985 classic gave us. And this time around, Mario has a Portal gun that will help him solve the new puzzles that are introduced to the game."
Maybe I overlooked it somewhere. XD
I dunno, I couldn't find one when I checked it out though. No worries, went and googled it afterwards. Seems like an interesting concept to say the least!
