Apparently Valve and Steam are being quite generous, and I wanted to share it with everyone now so they have a chance to take advantage of it. For a limited time, between today and Sunday November 5th, you can log onto Steam and download the mod The Ship for free! We talked about it a while back when it came out, and it definitely seems like a quality mod for Half Life 2, so I recommend checking it out!
I haven’t actually played it myself, since I didn’t want to spend the funds for a mod, so this is definitely a good thing and perhaps we’ll post a review after a few of us have it downloaded and begin the assassinations!
The website describes the mod:
Set on a series of luxury, art deco cruise ships built by Mr X, this devilish game challenges you to kill or be killed. Once you’re on board you’re given the name of another passenger whom you must find and secretly murder. Watch out for security unless you want to do some time in jail, take care of yourself and keep looking over your shoulder because somewhere out there is another hunter looking for you!

I soo wanted to play this ever since I first heard of it for HL1, it was so annoying though, I could never find a download spot, glad that steam works now. Looks like I’ll have to dust off the old steam account. Hope it’ll work on my el cheapo laptop.
It existed for the original Half Life?
What I’d love to see is an updated version of Natural Selection, for Half Life 1, which I really loved the style of and gameplay. There is no doubt one in production, but I hope it sees the light of day sometime soon.
So it’s Killer as a PC game?
The ship is free just for the weekend, it’s a trial download
Ahhh, bummer. Well, download it and play for the weekend then!
