TF2: first kill with reflected flare

Over on TeamFortress2Fort.com, Scorch posted a screen shot of the first kill with a reflected flare (that I’ve seen anyway). What makes it even better is that it was the pyro who shot the flare that he killed.
In other words: a pyro shot a flare at him at the exact moment he used his “compression [...]

TF2 Hitboxes

If you haven’t already seen it, there’s a rather interesting video on WeGame showing how the hitboxes (how/where you can shoot your enemies) in Team Fortress 2 work.
Ever wondered why you shot someone and they didn’t take damage, or how you got shot when you were already out of the way, etc? Here’s the answer:

Diablo 3 announced!

Blizzard announced Diablo 3 today, at their “Worldwide Invitational”. The official Diablo 3 website has also gone live, and has all the relevant information about the game, as well as a 19 minute long gameplay video!

FaceWound hacks

He recently released the latest version for free, though he says “it’s totally unfinished, unpolished and should be treated with the same attitude you’d treat a leaked alpha with” - despite [...]

TF2 Stats (program)

A new program has just been released for Team Fortress 2, called “TF2 Stats”, which reads in one of your game files and displays all kinds of interesting information (even more than the score board does). The guy who coded it, did it over the Easter weekend - not bad for a few days work.

TF2: “Reptile the movie”

There’s this Team Fortress 2 player, called “Reptile” (who’s really good as soldier) and there’s a video out of him on the net that’s really worth watching. I’d recomment NOT watching the YouTube version, but rather downloading the high quality version from Team Pandemic (direct link).

Dota Client 1.8 download

This morning I read about “Dota Client“, which I haven’t heard about or used before so I figured I’d download it - only problem was I couldn’t find a working download link, the “official” had a wait time of nearly and hour, and all the forums I found with it required me to register but [...]
