Valve offers "Complete Pack" for $99Posted 12:05am Mon Nov 17, 2008 by Zach Lott Tags: Valve, Steam

Valve, not to be outdone by themselves with the incredible value of the Orange Box, has announced that the Valve Complete Pack, which offers just about every title the developer/publisher has ever released, is now available on Steam for the low, low price of $99.

Why is that price so low? Because you're getting a package that would run about $235 if you bought each game separately. It's a great deal if you're interested in exploring Valve's back catalog or if you want to gift it to someone else.

The Heavy Up Next For Team Fortress 2 UpdatePosted 1:37am Thu Jul 03, 2008 by Zach Lott Tags: Team Fortress 2, Valve, Update

With the updates to the Medic and Pyro classes now done, it looks like Valve isn't wasting any time in continuing their renovations of Team Fortress 2's classes, as they've posted on the official TF2 blog that the Heavy is next in line.

The blog post reveals details about how Valve is approaching the Heavy update, with their main goal being to make the class "more viable when he has no Medic to pair with." Their design plan displays a desire to balance the augmented Heavy with the other classes while still making him more fun to play.

Valve Launches Team Fortress 2 BlogPosted 2:09pm Sat Jun 21, 2008 by Zach Lott Tags: Team Fortress 2, Valve, Blog

Whether it be through free game weekends, comical trailers introducing each player class, or the constant stream of new maps, weapons, and achievements, Valve has done an absolutely fantastic job of supporting Team Fortress 2 months after its release. Now it looks like they're ready to start speaking directly to the player base, as they've launched an official TF2 blog.

While there isn't much there at the moment, the introductory post promises that Valve will provide a "variety of interesting things to read," including gameplay details and unreleased concept art. Another post includes information on the designing and implementation of the Pyro's recently added flare gun. Be sure to check it out and be on the look out for future updates.

Rumor: Team Ninja To Lose Dozens of MembersPosted 12:34pm Mon Jun 16, 2008 by Zach Lott Tags: Team Ninja, Tecmo, Tomonobu Itagaki

It looks like Tomonobu Itagaki won't be the only one to leave publisher Tecmo, as 1up has discovered that dozens of Team Ninja members may be planning to follow his lead and will jump ship and sue the company for unpaid bonuses.

The news comes after Tecmo issued a statement saying that the team is "intact" and "has several new projects already underway," leading many to believe that Team Ninja may soon be in dire trouble. Even if they hire new developers to work on future entries in the Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive franchises, they will run the risk of releasing products that aren't true to their predecessors.

1up also made note that Japanese law requires publicly-traded companies to report lawsuits filed against them to shareholders on the same day as the filing, which could cause huge problems for Tecmo, as they waited for weeks after the filing of Itagaki's lawsuit to reveal the information to their shareholders.

We'll have more information once it becomes available.

EVE Online Coming To SteamPosted 11:36am Wed Jan 23, 2008 by Tim Grube Tags: PC, EVE Online, Steam

The first MMO title to hit Steam? I believe so...CCP and Valve have announced that EVE Online will be the first MMO title to be available on Steam. To promote the launch, they will be offering a 21 day free trial of EVE for Steam gamers, and an addition 5 dollars off their first months subscription. Nice of them, eh?

The new account numbers were also revealed in the press release showing off Steams rapid success. It appears Steam is clocking in at 13 million accounts worldwide. As for you EVE fans out there, to continue CCP's stance, EVE Expansions will still be free so the "universe" can grow.

Added "nextlevel" server cvar. If set to a valid map name, server will change to that map during the next changelevel
Fixed PerfUI being used as a type of wall-hack on servers without sv_cheats set to 1
Reduced Granary spawn advantage for capping the middle point
Fixed players turning into "Scout" model after lagouts (and a variety of related issues, such as disappearing doors)
Fixed obscure crash related to resolution changing
Gave machinima creators access to "tf_testvcd" and "tf_testrr"commands for playing scenes on characters
SDK Launcher now has a drop list of engine versions in addition to a drop list of games/mods. This eliminates the need to specify engine version as a launch option

SEGA has signed whatever documents are required to release games via Valve's PC-based Steam internet delivery system worldwide. This may come as a surprise to people like me who did not know that SEGA makes PC games.

They do, apparently, and two of their upcoming Holiday releases will be hitting Steam's virtual, steamy shelves this December: Universe at War: Earth Assault and The Golden Compass.

Team Fortress 2 Halloween CostumesPosted 9:15pm Sun Oct 28, 2007 by Tim Grube Tags: Team Fortress 2, PC

I have seen many great Halloween costumes in my lifetime, but these have to be the best that I've ever seen. Not to mention, I could not stop laughing. You can tell these crazy gamers clearly have too much time on their hands. But, I do them credit--they did a great job depicting the classes in Team Fortress 2.

For those not familiar with the title, here is the original picture from the game.
