Well all this whining about HL2 only being single player was for not. They just released the deathmatch multiplayer update via steam. The are even offering a map creating contest with a $5000 prize. Ahh I'm looking forward to some old school Half Life Mayhem. I hope they still have the blue gun and trip mines. OCModShop has a quick review with some screen shots. Warning their site is a bit slow right now.

I really hope they include: satchels, snarks and mine. Those added so much to the game play... the Thai food from across the street added something too.

Well so far there are only two levels. No satchels, snarks, trip mines, blue guns, gauss gun, or even crow-bars. At least not in these two levels. But you do get the crossbow, revolver, laser guided rocket launcher and a couple of new guns. The mayhem in the few games I played online was furious. Its hard to get used to that crazy gravity gun. You can hardly take two steps without getting you skull smashed by a flying toliet or other random object. You can pretty much kill anyone with a single hurl of a sufficiently heavy object. It really impacts the game play.
