The Summer Sale is upon us. Deals and discounts abound! Hopefully our wallets will make it out in one piece this time.

Valve has made some updates to the Refund policy on Steam. Let’s have look, shall we? Maybe we can finally get our money back for Spore.

A while back the SourceRuns team had done a segmented speedrun of Half-Life 2 known as Half-Life 2 Done With a High Magnitude of Velocity (DWaHMoV). Since then they’ve done runs of Portal, Portal 2 and some mods, but now they have come out with their next big segmented run: Half-Life 2: Episode Two – Done Quick or EP2DQ for short. Check it out in it’s full glory after the jump.

Black Mesa, the mod that set out to recreate the original Half-Life from the ground up in the Source Engine has had a long and exciting journey from the days when it was just an ambitious idea.

Today, Black Mesa finally comes to Steam after being Greenlit on Steam so long ago.

A while back Zen Studios teased that they were doing something of the pinball variety with Valve.

I thought it was going to be a hat-based F2P Pinball game built on the Source Engine, but it looks like I’m wrong because today Zen Studios announced Portal Pinball a new Portal-themed board for Pinball FX2.

It’s that time of year again, signalled by the smell of turning a digital copy of the Compendium that comes along with Dota 2’s The International event every summer.

There’s something strange going on over at BlackMesaSource.com.

The website for the highly anticipated Half-Life recreation modification, Black Mesa, started showing a mysterious video the other day of an analogue TV filled with color bars, which is directing viewers to a some sort of countdown clock.

Valve is now allowing game developers to implement their own systems that can detect and also ban users from playing their games on Steam.

Hungarian game developer Zen Studios, renowned for their pinball game franchises such as Pinball FX and Zen Pinball, have teased an image suggesting a possible partnership with Valve.
