Steam is having a free 24-hour trial of Left 4 Dead tomorrow! You can pre-download it today to be ready for tomorrow – no obligation to buy.

RAWR!

For everyone who has HL2, especially those who just got it with the Orange Box special this weekend, there is a mod out there that completely re-skins the game with HD models – the Cinematic Mod v9.51!

Here is a website with pictures of the mod.

There’s just one catch – the download is huge! At 9GB, this is a whooper of an update (hey, it’s HD, what do you expect?). Still, I’m gonna pick it up, and I encourage those of you with newer rigs to do so as well. So, you download the Cinematic Mod 9 Base files and the HD addon, then the 9.51 update.

To download, I am using a very nifty program called Cryptload to download these links for me automatically:

Cheers mates!

(It says 360, but its out for PC too)

New versus maps are also out! SARGE LETS PLAY (It only takes 3 minutes of non-stop hording in survival mode)

If anyone reads this. I’m setting up a LEFT 4 DEAD event for April 24, Friday 10PM est
WE NEED TO DO SOME LEFT 4 DEADDING

After a long wait. They added a new (beta) patch, with a new map!

Operation Blue Pearl

What’d you say? Re-install dem BF2s?

Hop on tonight to play some COD4. It doesn’t really matter where, but it sounds like the majority of us out there really don’t want to play anything but hardcore mode, and I’m one of those people. Even if we don’t get a scrim going with FB, we can still have a lot of fun crashing a server. As a side bar, we had a COD4 server at one point, perhaps if we get enough people pubbing/scrimming on a regular basis we’ll have the demand for a server of our own again.

?Ǭ†I posted up in some forums, namely texas team players and GH1S, it looks like we might be able to play some GH1S guys in HC tonight, but I still have to talk to them tonight and see what’s up, might not happen because of short notice.

?Ǭ†Point being, hop on tonight to play some and at the least say hey.

?Ǭ†:!:?Ǭ†Your assignment for this post: Comment up and?Ǭ†let us all know what you think about weekly scrims on Thursday. I’m just throwin it out there to see what you guys think.

Cheers!!!
