US Propaganda – From TF2?

Team Fortress

With what’s happening in Eastern Europe now, each side claims that the other is spinning the truth. However, the most recent development is that Russian state media claims that the US has, and continues to spread propaganda.

Vote For Valve At The 2011 Spike TV Video Game Awards!

Other Vote For Valve At The 2011 Spike TV Video Game Awards!

This year’s edition of the Spike TV Video Game Awards, or “VGA’s” for short, are coming up this Saturday, on the 10th of December. Whether you believe every random “video game news” website that says “industry contacts” told them Half-Life 3 would be announced on stage (maybe you even believe that other website that says it might even be that mysterious PS3 exclusive), or if that weird T-shirt thing has just got you a bit more excited than usual, the VGA’s are still worth checking out. Why? Because Valve will probably be walking out of there with accolades, that’s why!

But they aren’t going to pull it off without your help! So, anyone ready to do some science? And by science, I mean “voting for Valve… again”?

Valve And Overkill Games Working Together On “PAYDAY: Left 4 Dead”

Other Valve And Overkill Games Working Together On “PAYDAY: Left 4 Dead”

If you like video games, then I’m pretty sure you like “PAYDAY: The Heist” – even if you don’t know it yet. Released last year by Overkill Games, it’s a cooperative shooter that places you, along with 3 other friends, in a number of action-packed scenarios that all have one thing in common: killing officers of the law; and acquiring liquid capital. It was mostly an under-the-radar hit and the community can be really lame, but it’s definitely worth buying.

And apparently, we’ll be needing to get really acquainted with it in the near future. Read on!

Marc Laidlaw On The Cancelled Half-Life Spin-offs: Return To Ravenholm And “Episode Four”

Other Marc Laidlaw On The Cancelled Half-Life Spin-offs: Return To Ravenholm And “Episode Four”

Fans have always been curious about the scrapped, the cancelled, and the replaced. That’s why we have “communities within communities”, fan-followings that study and emulate the HL1 and HL2 “betas”, as some choose to call them. But it’s when we get wind of mysterious projects we’d previously never heard of, that we really get excited.

We decided to e-mail Marc Laidlaw himself, to find out what’s the deal behind all these supposed, canned Half-Life spin-offs. And not only is he great at telling stories, he’s also great at… telling us stuff. So he actually did tell us some stuff – regarding the recent info we dug up on Return To Ravenholm, and the controversial possibility of an Episode Four.
