    Portal 2 is officially confirmed. It’ll also have co-op. More coverage here. You can almost feel the excitement violently emanating from me.

    Valve updated Portal a few moments ago with this cryptic line being the sole change.

    Portal

    • Changed radio transmission frequency to comply with federal and state spectrum management regulations

    Don’t ask me what this means, but there’s a new achievement for the game, and Steamforums posters are already all over this. For now all we know is that there’s rumors of a radio in each chamber, and they play different messages, in morse code or whatever. As an European, I can’t check it out, as Valve updates always come at the darnedest times.

    EDIT: More decodes. Cheers for the link, Lunch.

    So whoever’s been waiting for that new expansion just so they could play with the original cast will be disappointed. The old cast is appearing in The Passing only as non-player characters. On the other hand, L4D1 will receive an expansion later on that ties in with the new L4D2 expansion. Derp.

    Also, I’ll be updating the site from now on with other gaming news I find interesting. Source/Valve may be a fun subject but they don’t throw out good news that frequently, and since the editors I don’t pay stopped writing, I’m going to try to bring content here more often.

    Edit: I’ll also be trying a few new things with the ads, if something does happen and you get bombarded with really annoying ads, please contact me.

    Not much to comment here. The runner-up entries have been posted, and there’s a rumor going around that a couple of entries weren’t exactly created by the submitters.

    EDIT: Yeah, not much of a rumor, as the comments say. TF2’s also been updated to work with the steamcloud, but other than that, the patch doesn’t offer any new gameplay changes.

    Talking about scootlegs is fun and all, Valve, but where’s our cvar that re-enables it?

    He’s the co-founder and head of one of the most influential game developers of all time and now Valve’s Gabe Newell is being honored for his many achievements. The Game Developers Choices Awards have announced that Newell will be the 2010 recipient of their Pioneer Award.

    Newell, who becomes the third winner of the Pioneer Award, is being honored not just for his achievements in game development with the Half-Life series, the Left 4 Dead series and more but also with Valve’s creation of the Steam download service. He will receive the Pioneer Award at ceremonies at the the Game Developers Conference on March 11.

    Good for him! He and everyone at Valve deserved it. Now maybe this will be a big incentive for Valve to say something about Episode 3. I believe congratulatory e-mails are in order.

    Hopefully everyone’s had a nice Christmas so far. Besides the circus of value the steam store has been lately, Valve’s got another gift for you. A new single from the Midnight Riders, All I want for Christmas (is to kick your ass)

    Games, Mods. Posted by KayRule @ 4:22 pm Comments Off

    The guys over at L4Dmods have started cracking on custom Melee weapons, which the game supports surprisingly well. This only works with Melee weapons.

    Very simple and temporary tutorial.

    Riot Shield Mod, using scrapped melee weapon models, when Locally Hosting or Playing as Singelplayer, it has a chance to show up in all games.

    Note: While looking through the models myself I found an unused w_didgeridoo.mdl, currently working on a weapon mod to see what that is.

    L4D got updated a while ago. Let’s see…

    • Fixed a crash related to a Crash Course achievement
    • Fixed an issue were bots and computer controlled special infected were being reported via “View Game Info”
    • Added Team Versus 4 on 4 competitive matchmaking

     
    The most significant change here is the new matchmaking search mode. Which is funny because IT DOESN’T REALLY WORK PROPERLY AT ALL.

    Earl Alexander, the voice of Louis from that game we sometimes like to play, has been interviewed recently on kill9tv. There’s a lot of interesting points in this video, such as how he managed to land the VA spot for Louis, his reactions to the community remixing his voice, and much more. It’s in four parts, so make sure you view each one by following the annotation links.
