    They released a new game mode, Detonation, for DoD:S, so they are making another free weekend for the game to show it off. Just download the game via STEAM, and play!

    Edit: fine, I admit it, It's already preloaded................

    I'm a fanboy, and too much has been changed from the first DoD for me to enjoy DoD:S very much.

    I can't get warm with the old engine.
    But I love all Source-based games.
    CSS and DoDS are taking me much more in than CS or DoD.

    Original DOD FTW!!!!! I play those old games because they kick ass, and I have to minimize quickly very often, and new games take forever to minimize and get back up again, even with 1gig of RAM.

    Game is just as shit as it was the last time I played it.

    It's a shame because the originals 3.1b/1.3 were great games :(

    Fuck that shit :( I spent extra cash on the special edition too. All I got was a faggoty little book with excerpts from a bigger book. I have no idea what that book is called.

    I tried it and even though I liked it (since it reminded me of DOD days long past) I don't like it enought to buy it.


    I would have bought it when I bought HL2 - if I had had the chance, instead I found out about the different packages after I got my retail one. Meh.

    The title screen music is alright, but other than that, meh.

    The game is flawed, when you finally make some headway and cap the flags the enemy controls, they take it back quickly due to some design in the map that gives them an advantage. Nothing but a back and forth struggle. In other words, it goes no where really fast.

    But aside from that, I did have loads of fun blasting folks using the ironsights, I love those rifles :p

    The only map I've ever liked is Anzio. Because America starts off on the beachhead :D
