I wonder where they got that from

-Steam Powered Forums

Could it be? Next weeks suprise Team Fortress 2 Beta?
 
Hmmm I dont think its probable, but we can only hope :)
 
If it's some incarnation of TF2, I'd be disappointed because no physics gun, but then I'd cheer up because it's TF2 :).
 
Now if only Munro would give us a little more information on that "7 Hours" picture, I wouldn't be going nuts with speculation (not that I am!) :)
 
Nah - I'm keeping my expectations low for next week's surprise.

I'm predicting it'll be - "SURPRISE! Remember when we said we'd give you more CS:S maps and models in December? Well here's the surprise - we actually delivered them when we said we would! How about that?" :)
 
Yeah people are getting pretty excited, but it's most likely just a new CS map. Not that it wouldn't be wicked to have a brand new map, rather than just fancy versions of old maps.. but still, I'm betting on it being a CS :S map. But a new one, or another old one touched up who knows.
 
December 31st is the tentative date for every long delayed game. Last year, HL2 and Doom 3 were also given 12/31/03 dates, becuase no one knew when they were coming.
 
TF2 is a phantom.
Yeah, so much of a Phantom that the entire source code was leaked last year, and it appeared to be pretty far along.

Read the news,look at the media, it's 5 years old. They had game magazines review it and they won awards for it at e3. in 1999...

-Here's a recurring Valve trend from june 2000

[NextWish] How do you feel about the certain "mod" developer which posted the offical valve login / password on his mods news page and in the result it got leaked..
[Robin Walker] It's a fact of life that betas get leaked. We'll live.

Oh look what's listed right before DoD, it even has a nice link for the official website that hasn't been updated for 4 years.

If it was to be anything about Team Fortress 2, it would be "NEWS" and only that, things going over gameplay, technology used, terrian deformation, maps...etc. Anyone thinking it would be a beta is wishfully thinking like crazy. I personally think it's CS:S content like they said they would have out in December. Cliffe was the one who told us about that CS:S content coming, and then Lombardi (i think?) was the one who said we get the suprise, just the other day. 2 minds thinking differently, Lombardi just wants to make it sound likes its huge, or maybe it's just the community who gets OVER EXCITED like crazy just because he says there is a suprise for the community next week. In my books, he's entirelly referring to a classic map*, de_prodigy, and player models...sorry kids!

If it is actually TF2 news of some sort, then I'm going to freak out...but considering they mentioned this CS:S content coming...way too doubtful.

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND :)
