Portal 2 Midnight Release? (Updated)

If you guys head back over to the Aperture Science again, you'll notice a different countdown, the potato count is going down fast. A friend informed me that it might be a midnight release countdown. So it looks like Valve will release a game early instead of late. I will post a screenie later of the site, I am currently on my tablet and cannot do so.

I was finally able to get a screenshot for you guys and along with the picture is new text:

10:50 - Engaging starch-based power cells
11:00 - Reboot safety test protocol initiated...
11:00 - Relaxation chamber locks released...
11:00 - Involuntary hazard mitigation associates have assumed testing positions...
11:00 - Pre-release lethality assessment initiated...
12:40 - Calculations complete for Audiosurf. Recalculating a new launch projection...

Just 5 more games that need completion, I wonder what will happen if all games get completed. Maybe an even earlier release?
