Classic Canadian comic troupe Kids in the Hall clearly think Portal is the funniest thing in the world. It doesn't look like they make it too far into the game, but if they react like this to the first box-on-a-button puzzle, I can only imagine how crazy they would go for the actual game.» Read More

MTV Multiplayer writes: "Do you ever get jealous at the amount of free updates Valve delivers for "Team Fortress 2? on the PC? You might be a console gamer.
Few people would blame you. "Team Fortress 2? has yet to receive a content update - free or otherwise - from Valve. But that doesn't mean they aren't thinking about it.
In response to the recent reveal of new maps, modes and character tweaks for "Team Fortress 2," I asked the studio if console owners could look forward to this, as well.
Valve's answer to MTV Multiplayer is open to interpretation. "[There is] nothing to announce - yet," said Valve vice president of marketing Doug Lombardi."

"One of our readers, Toni T, has sent us in this saying that unhappy Orange Box gamers are going to sue Valve unless they receive a patch for the game before July 1, 2008. I know that is a short time, though when you think about it the game hasn't received any real support in seven months. We post this as a rumor because the thread posted was supposedly deleted and we have no real proof whether gamers will actually pursue the suing. The case is for false advertising and they are bringing it to the US Federal Trade Commission."

Valve's been quite busy getting ready to roll out some impressive updates to their games and Steam in general:
"Valve today announced Steam Cloud, a free Steam system that will retain users' saved games and configuration files indefinitely.
Half-Life and Half-Life 2 will be the first games to support the service....
The company is also working on several new Steam systems, including a driver auto-updater and calendar functionality.

If you look properly you'll find that PC game sales are even, if not bigger, than all of the next-gen consoles, says Valve's Doug Lombardi."We sort of laugh at it," the marketing man told Shacknews."Because we've been wildly successful--we're very fortunate, you know. Our games have all done really, really well, Steam has taken off and become this whole other business for us, Valve has never been in better shape--and yet ...

Shacknews writes: "Developer Valve released the final details on its upcoming Team Fortress 2 content update during a party tonight in downtown San Francisco.
In addition to the known crit-increasing gun "The Critzcrieg," the remaining two unlockable medic weapons were also available for hands-on time. Dubbed "The Blutsaugher" and "The Ubersaw," they will serve as replacements for the medic's standard syringe and bonesaw, respectively. The weapons will be earned through a new achievement system, and equipped through a loadout menu."
The three new Medic weapons will be the Blutsaugher, a new syringe gun, the Critzcrieg, a medigun whose charge gives the recipient 100% chance of crits, and the Ubersaw, a saw that charges uber with each hit.
