Gamecloud - First, when was the decision made to port Day of Defeat over to Source?

John Morello II - We knew well before the release of HL2 that we would be porting our multiplayer games to the Source engine. It was just a matter of time before it was DoD's turn.

Does this mean... TFC Source?!?

Hey, do we have to have Half-Life 2 installed in order to play the new DOD?

I just reinstalled steam last night and preloaded DOD.. just wanted to make sure if I have to also grab the full HL2 all over again in order for DOD to work.

"For example the Garand and K98 now have the ability to fire a "rifle grenade" a long distance with accuracy. They're great for clearing snipers out of windows, or banking them around a corner off a building without exposing yourself."

Oh, God. Grenade launchers on WW2 rifles.

4 maps at ship? Not just 4 maps, but 4 remakes/rebuilt original maps.

How sad is that ... yet another reason to save $20.

Another crappy and useless interview. Why can't any of these journalists come up with anything interest to ask the devs.?

Or, more to the point, why won't the PR departments work harder and allow the devs. to answer tougher and more interesting questions?

All the information seems incredibly familiar to me, I'm sure I've seen it before. That's my main gripe, there are so many gaming websites out there, content gets repeated and regurgitated so often, it starts to lose its effect.
