Half-Life 2 Deathmatch Confirmed

Satertek writes "Following up a previous post, a teaser was posted on the Steam website with the image HL2DM.jpg entitled 'Soon', confirming rumors of a Half-Life 2 Multiplayer Deathmatch game. It was also brought up on the forums by Valve. It will be released alongside the SDK sometime this week." Update: 12/01 13:49 GMT by T : Since this was written, "this week" has turned into "now"; the update was released last night.

After playing the game...

I know why they call it HalfLife. Spend any amount of time playing this thing and you have half the life you did before. In my case, that wasn't very much, but not it's even less... :(

totally humiliating

When are they going to rip off Unreal Tournament 2004 Onslaught?

You misspelled Tribes. Granted, Onslaught isn't an exact replica of Tribes' gameplay, it shares more in common than it differs.

Imagine that, only two maps. Maybe ValvE should have some kind of map making contest to help fill that void. They could offer a $5000 first prize and maybe two $3000 second prizes. That would be cool, and then you wouldn't have to complain about only two maps.

I wish there was a moron filter on the interlink.

Half life 3

And they are also already working on half life 3! see here [ubersite.com] for details! That site even got some screenshots from an pre alpha build!

Toilet?

[taradfong]

Huh...I didn't think you could gravity gun the toilet. I must return to the john and try it! My personal favorite gravity gun implement had been, of course the devastating, indestructible and semi-transparent radiator, but I may now have a new favorite.

Remember the good ole days of calling the Sierra BBS in California, when long distance was like $10 a minute?
