Lots of cool shit gets revealed around the interwebs about our favorite PC games, but a lot of it doesn't warrant a whole thread even though you'd like to share it with your fellow BRBU'ers. This thread is for all those little bits of news, trailers, or screenshots that are interesting, but won't require a whole thread of its own. So if you see something nifty, it goes here.
I'm glad. I'm getting the PC version of Metro 2033 myself. Being a STALKER nut, I'm all over another post-apocalyptic (like) shooter with Russian characters. I've heard a few disconcerting things about the game that I'm hope is better with the release and I do know it's a linear shooter, but it sounds really interesting and involving with the atmosphere.
Apparently it gets hunches of bunches of points for the atmosphere. Gun play is a tad weak, but works and doesn't take away much from the game. That's what the review up there says. Anyway, all I know is that the PC version is fucking gorgeous.
I'm interested in 2033 but I don't think my PC can run it. I'll try it though.
Teaser trailer for Brink was awesome. Teaser trailer for Deus Ex 3 was not.
Metro 2033 still lookin' good. All of the negatives are non-issues for me really.
Gamesradar review : 9/10
You'll love

You'll hate

* A few naive design decisions

I did this for Crysis, playing on Delta difficulty for my first playthrough and loved it.
So this is hardly news, but that's what this thread is for. The latest update on the TF2 blog has this Saxton Hale cover and ONE HUNDRED PERCENT CONFIRMATION OF HL2:EP3.
What? You don't see the definitive confirmation? Look at his right bicep. After you've finished masturbating, look at the manly veins. Then look at his massive, pinky-less fist next to it.
WHAT'S THAT?! Lambda followed by a three?! THAT'S AS CONFIRMED AS IT GETS PEOPLE. Would Saxton Hale's appendages lie? No you fuckwit. If you're stupid or something and still think that is a coincidence, then let me refer you to the left portion of his field of chest hair.
HOLY MOTHER FUCKER! LOOK AT THAT! The Free Man's image embodied in a sweaty tangle of Hale's man sprouts. Still can't see it? Are you just dense?
I rest my case.

None of this needed to be quoted.
Either someone did some mad phototototshop on that, or wtf.

Check the Teamfortress 2 blog. It's all there. ENGIE UPDATE IS SECRETLY EPISODE 3! You heard it here first.
Holy shat Spore, rep for you.
trippy shit. made for a good read during stats class. Dimarco kept telling me it was just a demo for HL1, but if the disc game with an update for HL1, it couldn't have been released beforehand, no?

It's currently outselling everything on Steam so it's probably good.
