    A Minute With: Portal

    Inebriation aside, I know what you mean. It was somehow satisfying to be able to help friends through this game without ever actually pushing them to do anything specific. For me, the phrase was "just look up," since that was the thing that stumped all of them, for some reason. The phrase...

    Will there be a new Valve game this year ?

    As much as I would cream my jeans if they announced another Half-Life or Portal game, what I want most from Valve right now (game-wise) is some new IP. Preferably (in my opinion) something mostly linear and narrative-driven, since Valve are already sitting on top of such enormous multiplayer...

    Irrational Games shutting down

    To this day, I still don't fully understand the hate that Infinite gets. I had a ton of fun with it. I'm not saying it was better or worse than anything else, just that I had a lot of fun with it. And that's all I expect from video games: fun.

    Introducing Steam Tags

    Oh, also, I think this tag system is a really good idea.

    Steam Dev Days Media Released

    It's also worth noting that each YouTube video description for the talks contains links to that specific talk's presentation slides in both PDF and PPT format. I've updated the post to reflect that.

    One of the best guides I have ever seen....

    It's the Carl Sagan profile picture that makes it funny for me.

    What do you want to see in L4D3?

    When people ask what I want in a new Valve game, my answer is always the same, so instead of re-writing my answer for the third time, I'll just quote myself:

    Man goes crazy in the most badass way imaginable

    Wow. This is damn impressive, no matter how you look at it.

    I exist. As far as I know.

    As much as I love the first Half-Life, I still can't play through the whole thing without cheating. I didn't start playing video games until about 2010, so all those older games with much steeper difficulty curves still murder me. BUT I am working on getting better. *under my breath, speaking...

    Steam Beta Client: In-Home Streaming Now Supports Non-Steam Games

    Last week, the Steam Beta client was updated to formally support virtual reality as well as In-Home Streaming between different PCs over a local area network. Now, Martin Otten of the Steam team has posted a changelog for today’s changes to the Steam Beta client. Perhaps most notable is the fact...

    SteamDevDays: Day 2 Round-Up

    I like how Valve made an homage to the classic fan-made "Hats vs. Hats" graph:

    SteamDevDays: Day 2 Round-Up

    With Steam Dev Days wrapping up yesterday, the Twitter-centric news-drip of Valve updates has officially run dry. But that doesn't mean every bit of news has been covered. After yesterday's round-up of news from the conference's first day, here are the bits of news that stood out to us from the...

    SteamDevDays: Day 1 Round-Up

    Ever since learning about Valve’s developer-only conference Steam Dev Days back in October 2013, the internet has wondered what interesting new revelations might come from the no-press-allowed event. Luckily for those of us not in the developer community, some attendees have been contributing to...

    what are the things you want the most in source 2?

    As I mentioned in this thread a while back, the feature I most want to see in Source 2 (from a player standpoint) is dynamic map loading. That is, you could be playing a level, and as you progress through the stage, the game is consistently loading the next map, effectively eliminating load...

    What Clothes does Gordon Freeman Wear?

    Writing dialogue that includes Gordon without him ever talking must be difficult enough. Writing that same dialogue without him even having a name? Fugedaboudit!

    CES 2014: Steam Machines Round-Up

    Yesterday, Gabe Newell took to the stage at International CES to officially unveil the first generation of Steam Machines. During his very brief on-stage appearance, after revealing the partner hardware units, Gabe confirmed that controllers will be sold separately, and independent developers...

    Valve Unveils First Generation Steam Machines

    I still just want to buy Valve's first-party chassis. It could be completely devoid of parts, for all I care.
