It's Not All About the Graphics Part 1
CVG have posted a snippet of an interview with Doug Lombardi which discusses the age old argument of graphics versus gameplay.
Best example? Portal. "Before it came out, Portal failed to convince all those who like nice graphics," says Lombardi. "But when it came out it had really solid gameplay and a clever story, and so it won over 30 Game of the Year awards.

GoldenEye: Source Update
Yet another large update from another large mod. GoldenEye: Source has today given everyone a peek at the progress that's been quietly going on behind the scenes. It's been quiet for GE:S since their last update in March, but they haven't been slacking off.

 
The update summarises the team's artistic progress on various maps and models, along with the team selection menu, scoreboard, 3 music tracks, some beautiful map renders and a gameplay video!

And if you fancy your hand at a little Photoshopping, the team is requesting some assistance with the design of the logos for the 14 odd achievements that have been drafted up. Credit where it's due, folks!

Mods to Get Steamworks Revealed - AOC 1.2 Coming Soon
Valve has released a new news post revealing exactly which modifications will be getting Steamworks support, and best of all, it begins next week!

As a part of our continuing efforts to support the MOD community, we will begin hosting selected MODs directly on Steam starting next week. The first five MODs to ship on steam will be Age of Chivalry, D.I.P.R.I.P., Insurgency, Synergy, and Zombie Panic. As always, owners of any Source game will be able to download and play all of these MODs for free.

Once installed, these MODs will appear in your "My Games" list and will receive automatic updates just like other games on Steam. Also, these MODs now take advantage of Steamworks, which provides stat tracking and tighter integration with the Steam community.

We're excited to see MOD developers get wider recognition for the hard work they have done, and we hope to support more MOD teams in the future. Watch for the official release next week!
Age of Chivalry aims to be the first mod to take advantage of a big version release from the modifications new Steamworks access. Version 1.2 of the mod will be released over Steam on October 2nd.

Rockstar Pack Hits Steam

Ah, the good old days.

Valve has announced that a bundle of Rockstar games will be made available on Steam. Apparently this doesn't apply to Australia just yet, but everyone can enjoy the likes of the Grand Theft Autos and both Max Paynes, as well as Wild Metal, Midnight Club 2, and Manhunt.

And if that wasn't enough for you, they will all trade at half price this weekend! If you've been without them all these years, you might want to pick up the Max Paynes for $5 each, or $7.50 for the pair. Or if you're after maximum value, the entire pack can be had for just $29.99!

(Thanks, warped crakhead)
