Alright what’ve we got. The Sacrifice, the new DLC campaign for L4D and L4D2. In addition to the campaign where one player will have to take one for the team, Valve will also retrofit No Mercy to work with L4D2, and they’ll release a nice online comic too. This comes out in October.
I don’t recall if Portal 2 Co-op was announced in the past, but Valve’s release a nice little trailer for it on youtube.
This isn’t news, but some guy hacked up a trombone and fitted it with some incendiary equipment. Okay, the flamethrower trombone is cool but am I the only one that feels nervous when he turns it on in his room near all those easily combustible materials?
Oh, and a random item generator. It churns out some really underpowered stuff, we know.
EDIT: Oh, you silly racing fans. The heavy ain’t a truck.

My first random item was jarate that had “20% less firing speed” and destroyed stickies
And a buff banner that activates on kill, causing 5 seconds of fullcrits!
You were being sarcastics, weren’tcha?

What about the “The Invisibility Scottish”? Unfortunately, there’s a 20% slower firing speed associated with its use.

but personally my favorite is:

Yea, I watched the GTTV live and was ridiculously excited about the whole show. I really can’t wait to get my grubby hands on this stuff. I really can’t choose who to kill, though. Anyways, great videos finds as usual, EVD. Thanks.
