An interesting Steam update announcing the winner of the "win a trip to VALVe" contest, and also their "up and coming" mods list. Another interesting part of the news is the new "tournaments webpage".

"Friday, July 15 2005

This coming Monday, July 18th, one of the winners of the "Win a Trip to Valve" contest will be arriving here at our offices. Lawrence S. Burstein PhD, of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida purchased the "Gold" edition of Half-Life 2 during the contest timeframe and was our first winner.

In other news, we're always on the lookout for new and interesting mods which use the Source engine. Here's the latest batch which have caught our eye:
Insurgency, Hostile Planet, Badge of Blood, MINERVA, Hull-Breach

Also, we've launched a new webpage for tournaments, where organizers can submit a tournament registration request for their event to be posted on the Valve Tournament Calendar. If you're looking to compete, spectate, or host an event, check it out."
