Counter-Strike For Source Engine Shown In South Korea 17
Thanks to CS-Nation for its discussion of the first public showing of Valve's team-based FPS Counter-Strike: Source, including new screenshots and videos, as "the first playable exhibition of it [was held] this weekend in Seoul, Korea." An earlier CS-Nation news story has comments from an attendee, who suggests: "It isn't really different from the way you would feel while you're playing current CS. New physics and graphics are obviously improved, but it wasn't really enough to make me shock in awe." However, he does argue: "The graphics, of course, [are] absolutely excellent. I think the new de_dust2 is the map that can show the real power of [Half-Life 2 engine] Source."

Turns out Cliffe is a star in South Korea, as many players and game designers are in a nation with the highest broadband penetration in the world and the biggest mmorpg, in terms of registered users, ever (Lineage ~ 4 million subscribers). It's good to see talented young people get the credit and the fame they deserve, even in a country where pop songs are all about Starcraft... [bash.org]

I believe the decision to simply upgrade the graphics is actually a very smart one. The gameplay in CounterStrike is incredibly addictive and a few changes in the wron

And right on cue, Nightwatch [hl-nightwatch.net]!
Okay, it's not released yet, and it's single-player only, but a lot of people seem convinced we're cheating somehow. But we aren't - we're just a bunch of nutters who can make the prehistoric Half-Life engine sing and dance like the very latest...
