Steam: Alien Swarm Free

Alien Swarm is a game and Source SDK release from a group of talented designers at Valve who were hired from the Mod community. Available free of charge, the game thrusts players into an epic bug hunt featuring a unique blend of co-op play and squad-level tactics. With your friends, form a squad of four distinct IAF Marine classes.

This game is free on steam, so get over there and pick it up asap, well worth the time it takes to download.


APB: Funny

I’ve been running the APB Arrest Database for almost a month now, here

What happened was that I pulled up in front of a car that was moving to let a teammate out, it stopped at the point both cars rear ends were touching, which caused what you see below. The point were they popped apart was my doing by moving away from the car. It wasn’t lag induced on my end. Vehicles in APB are server side. As well as the pedestrians. Leaving me to belive that the problem is server side.

There’s other times where you see cars lifting the front off the ground from a dead stop. I can’t wait to see what changes they have in store for us when they “repair” the driving in APB.

You can’t shoot me I’m AIDS. – Privates!

Leave it to Zombie Cow to make a game out of anything, and make it look fun.

Surely some sort of mistake? Where the HELL did this third dimension come from, then?

That’s right! Zombie Cow Studios is proud to announce we’ve gone all futuristic and 3D with Privates, a funky little game about tiny little condom-hatted marines going right up peoples’ rude areas and shooting all the nasty chompy things that tend to live there if you’ve been carelessly putting bits of yourself in silly places.

Much love to the enormously-talented @lemmy101 and @CaptainBinky who have, in all honesty, done the vast majority of the hard work. Sometimes we have meetings and I have no idea what’s been said at all, it’s all ‘quaternions this’ and ‘tristripping that’.


I have however worked out that Tristripping is, tragically, not NEARLY as exciting as it sounds. It’s all something to do with triangles. And not even sexy triangles like you get on a sexy 3D stripper’s knockers or anything, just normal triangles. :(



There’s more to come very soon, including trailers and screenshots of the unpleasantly-brown levels. You know why.

Micro Volts Online / H.A.V.E. Online

For ages, a secret battle has been waged, going unnoticed right in our own backyard.

No one knows for sure when or where the first toy declared war. Rumor has it that their uprising began with four original limited edition figures, code named MicroVolts.

Naomi, Knox, Pandora, and C.H.I.P. were the prototypes. Battle lines were drawn, and they were soon joined by an endless number of modified versions. Now, toy figures around the world are engaged in all out war for valuable battery resources and supremacy of the Micro World.

All we can do now is stay out of their way and wait for a champion to be declared.

According to their site the above is the story. Whatever the story, if I get to run around a bedroom blowing up dolls I am all for it. Reminds me a lot of UT99 and the Bedrooms map. They are accepting site sign ups for CBT announcements, just follow the main site link below. I will let you know more when I get a solid date on their CBT signups.
