Wow. Who would have thought you could do something THIS awesome with Source characters? Forget that Daydream stuff, this is the best.

Well, it certainly took long enough.

The 2003 Half-Life 2 leak caused ripples in not only the community, but the world as a whole. It shaped our community into what it is today, yadda yadda, and more importantly, it allowed the creation of the world’s first Half-Life bubblegum.

Using content and screenshots from the leak itself on its packaging, this Russian/Ukrainian bubblegum seems to have been created sometime in early-mid 2004. Check out a community-made video showing its ground-breaking opening, after the jump.

GREETINGS, YOU LITTLE P***IES. THIS IS VIC, WRITING AN EXTREEEEEEME ARTICLE FOR THIS EXTREEEEEEME VIDEO. PRESS THE F***ING “MORE” BUTTON TO VIEW THAT S**T.

Valve’s on the offensive, people!

Not only do we have Mutation Week 17 up, but we also have bi-weekly community campaigns operated by 120 official servers, summer sale on all  L4D merchandise, and that DLC we all forgot about.

More details after this.

Once voice actors let the cat out of the bag, Valve goes to work.

Valve just registered a DotA trademark two days ago. For more details, press dat button.

Damn, what a busy week. Big TF2 update suddenly emerges, EP3’s still got nothing, and Valve will make a fantasy game. Yippee.

Remember Portal? That experimental game Valve bundled with the Orange Box? And that sequel they just announced? Yeah, that’s the one, and it’s coming to GamesCom, next week, in Cologne, Germany. More juicy details after that chasm I leave in the path of your speedy browsing.

Back to the News Roundups. Not as much stuff this week, but still quite a few interesting news.

A big thanks to Pinky for helping me get the feature image up!

Hello and welcome to the Resistance Bulletin. I’m your same old news editor and part-time refugee, Vic, reporting from the inside of an abandoned coastal house just outside of City 17, in mortal fear of a Combine patrol which has stopped nearby.

Excuse if my writing is poor, but I have been forced to drink from the polluted seawater nearby, and some discarded cans of Private Reserve. I can feel my brain cells slowly dying.

Dayum. This new video, showing off GMod’s latest Cloudscript weapon system, posted by Garry himself, looks pretty stunning.

We’ve always been amazed by GMod’s versatility, but this is just too damn awesome.
