If what you claim is true, those are some interesting topics to learn about. You didn't really provide any evidence about your trip or the discussions you had, but certain things do sound plausible. I'm not sure about the Portal 2 community puzzle stuff as I can't really see a reason why they...

I really need to try out Destinations myself next month when I get my Vive up and running again.

MFL's mum.

No worries, I wasn't offended by what you said - just thought I would clarify. Basically, I work as Rocksteady's 1st and 2nd line IT support, meaning, probably about half of a typical working day, I'm the person who responds to most of the development team's cries for help with their tech. This...

I'm not really "in collaboration" with them, I work for them in their IT department as a full-time employee! But yeah, Sony's showing at E3 was incredibly strong and well-focused around games and just showing what they had to show - very little bullshit.

Considering the studio I work for (Rocksteady) announced our new game (Batman: Arkham VR) at the Sony press event yesterday, I'd say I care quite a bit about events at E3. Especially considering how involved with the project I've been! I also got to meet and listen to Mark Hamill a few weeks...

Quietly, and without much fanfare, Valve have this evening announced and released the 6.88 balance patch for Dota 2. The unexpected update comes only a day after the conclusion of the Manila Major tournament, and is therefore only a minor patch featuring small gameplay tweaks with no major...

I just farted. That felt pretty good.

While definitely not a "game" by any traditional definition, Valve's latest foray into the virtual reality software space is certainly an interesting new release. Known as "Destinations", this free, VR-only piece of software allows Steam users to create, share, and explore 3D environments...

After a hiatus of a year and a half, Valve's extremely successful Steam Dev Days are once again returning to Seattle! As the follow-up to the 2014 event, this year's Steam Dev Days will take place on October 12th and 13th 2016 and will once again feature numerous talks and events designed to...

While I'm thankful I've never had to make a post like this before, I am extremely frustrated (at myself) that I now have to make one at all. Context Earlier this evening, we aired a Round-Up episode claiming Erik Wolpaw, one of the senior writers on Portal and Portal 2, had left the company to...

With "The Lab" having been out for a little over a month and a half at this point, it's definitely the perfect time for Valve to re-inject some life into their freely available virtual reality title. Today's "Appliance of Science" update, available free of charge, adds a bunch of extra...

Although slightly later than planned, this week's Round-Up episode covers an interesting and wide spread of news and discussions. Headlines from the past week include a huge sexual discrimination legal case against Valve, the release of early Vulkan support for Dota 2, and claims by Valve...

Given certain departures from the company and the sheer length of time it's been since we've seen anything truly new, I'm mostly in this camp at this point.

In this very Dota-centric Round-Up episode, we're talking about the introduction of The International 2016 Battle Pass and the amazing success it has garnered thus far, before briefly discussing the welcome return of the Dota 2 Short Film Contest! To stay up to date with all things Dota and...

Following the enormous success of last year's Dota 2 Short Film Contest, Valve are bringing back the now-annual tradition to allow for a whole new set of videos to be created and submitted. Between May 20th and July 26th, Valve will be accepting Dota-themed videos of no longer than one minute...

As part of the run-up to this year's International 2016 tournament for Dota 2, Valve have today released the event's Battle Pass and Compendium. Available for $9.99 / £7.19, the Battle Pass provides players with access to the statistical compendium from previous years and the usual host of...

Following yet another very quiet week from Valve, this week's short Round-Up episode is discussing a recent hat-filled patch for Team Fortress 2 and revisiting a bunch of neat improvements to the Steam Reviews and Broadcasting features added a few weeks back! Like we say every week, be sure...

After accidentally missing last week thanks to one of my own blunders, we're back to recap the past two weeks of Valve news! With Valve once again quiet, the biggest news we have to discuss revolves around the on-going Dota 2 / Warhammer cosmetic item contest, the re-tweaking of the 6.87 balance...
