Winning Half-Life 2 User-Created Deathmatch Maps
Voodoo Extreme has the news that the winners of a recent design contest held by Valve will now see their Deathmatch maps added to the Steam repetoire. From the article: "Three Half-Life 2: Deathmatch maps are now available via Steam. These maps were created by the three players who won our recent HL2:DM mapping contest. If you have HL2:DM installed in your Steam games list, you will receive the new maps automatically."
I'll we have to do now is await the Slashdot map pack and HL2:DM will be complete. Features: A special capture-the-flag level featuring SCO on one side and Slashdot on the other! Level set in Soviet Russia where the lag complains about the players! Level set in North Korea where only old people use gravity guns! One level so complex that it can only be run by a Beowulf cluster of sentient supercomputer overlords! A level made in the post-9/11 era! And, of course, the bonus Underpants Gnomes level created by CowboyNeal.
