Interesting Port Usage In Msdn

I was going through an MSDN tutorial when i came across a "random" port assignment.

<!--c1--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->sockaddr_in service;

service.sin_family = AF_INET;
service.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr( "127.0.0.1" );
service.sin_port = htons( 27015 );

<!--c2--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->

Notice the use of 27015. What do you think the chances are that the MS programmer who wrote this MSDN entry is a HL gamer? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->


Ok, maybe that was a bit nerdy, but I found it amusing.
