Speaking of Steam reminded of the story that Valve are releasing, for free, the new Source 2 engine. Someone posted on that story this link to a Half Life 3 confirmed worker-outer. S'funny.
So I got the DI "collection" (DI, DI-Riptide and some fairly worthless-looking DLC) all for less than 10 bucks, installed it last night and maybe I'll get a chance to take 'er out for a test drive later.

I've got the Gunfighter release. The arcade part is fun, though repetitive. In the last, and hardest arcade level, you stand at the bottom of a canyon while about 50 guys are on the rim pouring lead at you. Most of the others are more interesting. The main game and duelling parts are kind of lame. Great graphics though. Probably not worth >$10-15 imo.

And I killed the first DI zombies, with a canoe paddle and a piece of pipe. At first I wasn't too keen on the story, but I'm starting to get into it. And the graphics are awesome.

I'm plodding through the missions on it myself. I'd like to be able to scroll through the available weapons with the mouse wheel though, going into a menu to pick another weapon is a tad cumbersome.
There's a way to do it. I googled it but haven't bothered to try it, and didn't save the url. While the environments are generally awesome, and some of the missions are better than others, the actual zombie fighting is tedious and repetitive. I don't think the weak damage caused by gunfire is particularly accurate e.g. three clips from the 'dangerous automatic rifle' didn't bring down a 'ram' (big zombie in a straight jacket), so that's kind of disappointing. Anyway, I'm about ready to pack off to the prison.

The fighting is repetitive, but I'm only two hours in, so was hoping it'd get better against the bigger baddies. :/
I find myself resorting to kicking them to pieces to avoid wasting/weakening weapons. There do seem to be a load of pickups though, so maybe I'm being ultra conservative for no reason.
I've just got to the bit where you get to drive about for the first time at the Life Guard station and have to run a few errands for people.
