So it seems I’ve finally caught up to 2007, not only have I got this twitter thing (about which I have another blog entry forming) but after 920 days since the last time I used it, I’ve re-installed Steam. I’ll be first to admit, I’m a sucker for a bit of a freebie give-away, and what better give-away is there than Valve’s Portal free to claim till May 24th.
Now at this point, I might have talked about the game (not that it’s really useful any more), or about how Steam has fixed those things that made me stop using it, over 2 years ago. Unfortunately, everything that I disliked about Steam then, seems more or less to still be present in Steam now.

So over the holidays Barney’s Mind (YouTube) reached its finale, and while Freeman’s and Shephard’s Mind (YouTube) are busy being worked on, a rather awesome rendition of Chell’s Mind (Portal) has appeared to fill the void (YouTube).
Meanwhile, whilst sorting through my old collection of flash video files, I stumbled across the Transformers break-dancing short, by Mark Wilenkin and Lazer (amongst others). Since the original sites and video have long since disappeared from the ‘net and the video is so good, I figured I’d re-post it here.

Please note; I take absolutely zero credit for any of this work, apart from re-hosting it.
Oh and I have a couple posts sitting around the Drafts waiting to be written properly, so hopefully more stuff soon.

So if you haven’t heard, S2 Games, the company behind the Savage series, have a new game coming out, and what’s more is they’ve been doing Linux Closed Beta testing with the guys over at Phoronix, and the Linux Gaming community has responded, in a big way.
Phoronix posts on the subject so far;
Come Play This New Linux-Native Game With Us!
Linux Gamers Are Excited For New Games
Okay, Linux Gamers Are REALLY Excited!
Game studios, pay attention. Linux gamer’s exist, and there are many of them, and they move with surprising force, (and buying power).
So what is Heroes of Newerth all about? Well, we can’t exactly tell you. S2 Games has all media under an embargo covering this game. Basically it’s an online, multi-player strategy game that is based upon DoTA (Defense of the Ancients).
