Keeping on Track

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

Starting on the edge of a small train depot, you must fight your way through and across the buildings and trains.

Expect fierce resistance from all angles.

If you can reach a particular train roof, you may be able to escape.

Good Luck!

I pride myself on always trying to make the site better. Not just by adding new content, but by improving or introducing new features.

Today I am pleased to announce the rollout of Phase 1 of the PP Profile page.

This post will explain its current features and hint at Phase 2 and 3.

SniperVille 2

for Half-Life 2: Episode Two

That blue laser and the special sound the sniper rifle makes is enough to make me cringe.

I know that I have to tread very carefully and one false move may mean my instant death.

In this mod, you test your skill in 3 very different maps.

Poll Question 298 – How often do you play the free trials on Steam?

Single Player First Person Shooter Maps and Mods for Half-Life 1, 2 and Episodes 1, 2 and 3

Originally, this poll was going to be about “Have you ever found a game in your Steam Library and have no idea how it got there?” because I saw Borderlands 2 in my Library and tweeted about it and helpfully Dan Jordan told me it was on free trial.

But then I realized that it probably never happens anyway – or does it?

So, this idea came from that one.

To be honest, I don’t think I have ever taken advantage of a free trial. Basically, if I like the look of a game I buy it. That sounds a bit snobbish and I recognize that I should use these trials to play games outside of my usual genre.

I kinda wrote something along the same idea years ago called Game Radio Idea.

Well, there you have the background to this poll, but now it’s time to let me have your thoughts on these free trails and don’t forget to vote…

Welcome to August!

By the time you read this, I will be on holiday for 3 weeks in the UK. I’ll be checking my email and the comments, but won’t be posting anything until the last week of August.

I didn’t find any interesting videos to add this month, but maybe you can?

Have a great August and see you all soon.
