CS: Source Half-Life's Only Multiplayer
James DeSimas writes "Halflife2.net was able to get an exclusive interview with Chuck Osborn from PCGamer. In the interview he found out that Counter-Strike: Source is indeed the only Multiplayer for Half-Life 2." This comes on the heels of the news that PC Gamer will feature a special HL2 Review in its upcoming issue. Full Steam and Retail packaging details about the game are also available from many sources today as well.
It may occur to you, then, that perhaps most of the people who have no interest in CS:S have played the original? And, seeing that there's little more than a graphical update between it and the original, perhaps people were looking for a little more, y'know, innovation in the years they've spent on the title?
UT2k4 isn't particularly stellar, but it has a variety of gameplay types and several mods which are fairly new and interesting. I'd prefer to play it than Valve's rehash of CS.
