MORE FREEWARE/F2P GAMES FROM VALVE!

Here’s something: since the release of Valve’s free Source-based co-op shooter Alien Swarm which took us all by surprise last year, hippies and socialists have been able to get their hands on a Source-based game without paying a thing, which in turn lets them play those lovely Source mods for free as well. Well, we’ve just received word from Valve’s Robin Walker that due to the recent release of a free Team Fortress 2, the Source SDK will soon become free to use in its entirety, for everyone.

The Source Software Development Kit, for those of you who’ve never clicked the Tools tab in Steam, contains everything you’d need to make a mod, except for personal ambition. It has everything from the infamous Valve Hammer Editor to Face Posers and Model Viewers. At the moment, to gain access to the Source SDK you have to purchase a Source based game such as Half Life 2, or as the official website states, Team Fortress 2. Which is of course now free.

News came via this Reddit thread detailing the exploits of an enterprising young man going by the name of Riley, who just happens to be the playtest leader of esteemed Source mods Zombie Panic Source and No More Room In Hell. They asked Team Fortress 2 developer Robin Walker if buying an item in the TF2 Mann Co. Store would give access to the Source SDK, Walker had this to say:

Yep. That said, your email has triggered a process here that made us re-examine that, and we’re going to just go ahead and make the Source SDK freely available. Thanks for making us better!

We emailed Walker for further confirmation, and he went on to explain:

We are in the process of getting it all done. It’s a bit messy because we have multiple versions of the SDK, and there’s some dependencies we need to shake out. But yes, the gist of it is that we’re just going to go ahead and make the Source SDK freely available.

Isn’t that nice. Makes me wonder if everything Valve makes from now on will be free OF COURSE THEY WON’T DON’T BE SILLY. We’ll probably be seeing an official announcement soon (and an update to that official page), but in the meantime you might want to brush up on your Hammer skills by having a look at the official SDK Documentation.

What are your favourite Source mods, readers?

Thread Update.

Completed pages 1 to 20 in the new updated posting format.

This format includes adding in game game pad support and netbook friendly info. Along with verifying working links and updated system requirements info.

I'm putting together a FAQ along with a break down of how to use the list for those that are looking for a specific type of game and/or new to freeware/F2P PC gaming.

Also - I will be moving games around to be placed into their proper genre listing. A good example is getting rid of the survivor horror section as it never sat well with me. While doing this I will introduce a new tag that will have the THEME of the game on each game posted. Here are the themes I will be placing:

Comedy
Drama
Fantasy
Horror
Military
Mystery
Other
Romance
Science Fiction

This new format is something that I will be working on with a few other ppl, if you want to help out let me know via PM.

I'm also thinking about another tag devoted to time, like this:

Under 30 minutes
Over 30 minutes
Under 1 hour
Over 1 hour and up

If anyone has any suggestions for themes let me know, not sure if I covered them all and I want to keep games themed under other to a minimum. Also there is a chance that I may skip a game over on whether or not it support game pads because if it was SP and I ended it, I've probably already uninstalled/deleted it and forgotten. Let me know if you see something that I should correct.

Megamash

Action/Arcade
Single Player - Yes
Multiplayer - No

Theme: Science Fiction

When you first start Mega Mash, the latest flash masterpiece from the folks at Nitrome, it seems like you're about to play a 7-in-1 game cart filled with clever homages to classic games. Then everything goes wonderfully haywire.

The screen fills with error messages, and then it fills with the simple joy of Mario Bros. clone Carrot Story. You maneuver your bunny rabbit over blocks, stomping on enemies, and just when you think the other six games don't exist, you jump into a side-scrolling shooter. It's only a brief jump before you're back in bunny form.

The next levels introduce more games. A Bomberman clone juxtaposes itself with a chain-swinging ninja game. Back in bunny world, shifting into a Tetris-style puzzler builds stairs so our long-haired hero can progress.

It's a gorgeous symphony of old school gaming goodness, all at once. Go see for yourself. - Kotaku
