Valve Announces Next Game

Now, why you people bother to get your news from us, I'll never understand. We're hardly reputable, never on-time, and the amount of news that has come out since our last news posting is astounding.

Nevertheless, here's some super big news worthy of immediate action (read: immediate=25 days later).

Game Informer Magazine took a trip to Valve's office to check out what they've been working on. And in this synopsis they published online, they officially announce Valve's next big title in 2011: Defense of the Ancients. If you've ever played Warcraft III, you'd probably know about this mod. It was/is super popular, and a refined sequel was in high-demand. Valve picked up the developer Icefrog and gave him a job working on a better sequel with Source technology. It's been on the rumor mill ever since Valve hired him a year ago. In other words, we saw this coming for a while.

If you have no idea what DotA is, I recommend reading the article on the Game Informer website.

In other older news... So as you can see, lots have happened! (not to mention a bunch of Portal 2 media)
