you'll love Mirror's Edge then. It even gives ME motion sickness after 30 min. Luckily I'm okay with Half Life 2.

One of the coolest mods I've seen yet:

When you take into consideration how I skateboarded off of an exploding parking garage while being chased by a runaway UPS truck full of bears only to land in one of those portable swimming pool trucks, saying how this hide and seek mod for Team Fortress 2 was the highlight of my week means something.

First thing is first, credit goes to Shacknews for finding the crazy thing. What makes the mod so great is that you aren't just hiding your character on various maps -- instead, you are a prop, and you have to position yourself in a believable way so you don't get found.

By the way, you absolutely have to see this mod in action before you brush it off. To be more specific, check out the epic frog chase about halfway through the clip.

A new update for Portal adds "radio support", which is turning out to be an interesting promo.

It's been less than 24 hours, and fans of Valve's first-person puzzle game Portal have already deciphered what the new achievement is and many of the radio messages. The achievement is to find the radio in each level and take it to an unknown spot, where it will spit out a transmission at you. Those familiar with ARGs - or Alternate Reality Games - will be instantly familiar with what Valve is doing, and the video above shows just what the radios are transmitting: images.
