Valve titles appear on Impulse
RPS has noted that Valve has made its games available on GameStop download service Impulse. The marketplace, which was owned by Stardock up until last year when it was bought by GameStop, now has five titles from the company: Portal 2, The Half-Life Complete Collection, Left 4 Dead 1 + 2 and The Orange Box, all of which end up requiring Steam activation anyways. Still, your options on where to buy Valve games has become more broader now.
More details here.

Left 4 Dead Boomer action figure is grotesque
But some people are apparently into that sort of thing. The level of detail on this figure is incredible, and we really can’t imagine who would want to have this on display in their home/office. But in this case it’s a sort of horrifying beauty. Full picture after the break. More »

L4D2: If 60,000 earn Connecting Fights achievement, Blood Harvest beta gets unlocked early
Valve’s added an updated version of the original Left 4 Dead Terminal Map for Dead Air into Left 4 Dead 2, and it is handing out an incentive to test it for bugs and the like. This incentive will come in the form of an achievement called Connecting Fights, which is earned by playing a complete game of Versus in Dead Air. What’s more, once 60,000 people earn the achievement, Valve will unlock the beta version of Blood Harvest on Steam the following weekday. Think of it as the same as with the Dead Air incentive, only instead of the goal being 20,000, Valve has added and extra 40,000 on top of it. Get to work. Thanks, Shack.

Left 4 Dead “The Sacrifice” cinematic trailer is full of zombies, desperation, more zombies
The new Left 4 Dead “The Sacrifice” trailer presents a classic match-up of brains versus brawn. And overwhelming numbers. And speed. And mobility. And every other conceivable disadvantage one small group of weak, scared, tired humans could have against a never-ending, never-faltering brain-hungry horde.
Our guess? Everyone’s gonna be perfectly fine, of course! How else would something called “The Sacrifice” end?
