Lethal Stigma Public Beta Released
This mod was really below my radar for a while; all the previous gameplay showed was a few crafty additions to the traditional Half-Life 2 Deathmatch experience. However, I can confidently say that Lethal Stigma is something worth checking out.
Daydream Music Video in Source
I’m still impressed with what people have accomplished in Hammer. Enormous maps and intricate scripted sequences are common, which makes it even more impressive when something like what Mysfit has put together surfaces on the internet.

Steam Game Releases: August 9-13
Steam news has been slow this week, there’s a new beta and some updates, but nothing huge.
