Although late, it's time to recap and celebrate all the Halloween-themed goodness from the past few weeks! The headlines this week include new spooky updates for Team Fortress 2 and Dota 2, the introduction of four new Asian currencies to the Steam Store, and the addition of Steam "Item Stores"...
A new Steam Update which slipped completely under our radar yesterday evening has introduced "Item Stores" to the Steam Community. As the name suggests, "Item Stores" will act as a compliment to the Community Market by allowing game developers to set fixed prices for in-games items, clothing, or...
It's Halloween! Instead of going out and having fun with your friends, join us as we pick up where we left off in our last episode by diving deep into the stories behind the rest of the Half-Life 2's monstrous synths - mysterious weaponised creatures that form the backbone of the Combine war...
We couldn't think of a super obvious and suitably-gorey topic to cover for Halloween this year, so we decided to take an in-depth look at the Combine's vast array of weaponised synths - creatures forcefully adapted into cyborgs for universal war! In this first half of a Database two-parter...
With Diretide now a distant memory, this year's Halloween-themed festivities for Dota 2 are focused around "The Haunted Colosseum", a new custom gamemode created by Valve. As originally previewed months ago during a teaser for the Reborn beta, The Haunted Colosseum is a 5v5 battle for...
The annual tradition continues with this year's Scream Fortress VII event for Team Fortress 2! Despite initial fears that this year's event would be rather limited compared to previous years thanks to Valve taking something of a backseat regarding its development, Scream Fortress VII is...
With Halloween coming up in just a few short days, this past week was particularly quiet as Valve continue to keep their event plans under lock and key! For this week's show, we're going to be covering the few itty bitty pieces of news that did manage to make it out over the past seven days...
We're finally back after a short absence! We've got a lot to cover in this week's News Round-Up, including explaining what exactly the recent Half-Life 3 leak means, what the community have been working on for TF2's recently-released Invasion Update, and how constant patches are changing the...
I find the promise of "all future games" a little hard to swallow. Then again - I guess it is an extremely small amount of people and it will definitely keep those few loyal.
It also shows Valve isn't just going to be releasing Free to Play titles from now on, unlike what some believe.
After what feels like years of work by so many members of the community, the "Invasion Update" for Team Fortress 2 has finally arrived. As an entirely community-created update picked up by Valve several months ago, the Invasion update introduces Aliens into Team Fortress 2 for the first time...
After over two years since the Steam Controller's first unveiling in September 2013, this week's Round-Up covers the device's final journey as they are prepared to head into homes for the first time. Elsewhere in the episode, we're also discussing the recent conclusion of Team Fortress 2's Gun...
As hinted at during the recent reveal of the Frankfurt Major for Dota 2, the Fall 2015 Compendium has finally been released. Like those associated with the annual International tournament, the Fall Season Compendium can be purchased from the Dota 2 Store and will provide players with access to...
It may be a little later than planned (hardly a big surprise), but this week's Round-Up episode is absolutely crammed full of talking points and major headlines. These include the reveal of Valve's recent work on Photogrammetry for virtual reality, the release of Dota 2's latest major balance...
