Counter Strike: Steam News Update + New CS Source Models
 Congratulations to Dangerous Waters for being recognized as IGN's Game of the Month. You can head over here to read their writeup. To check out Dangerous Waters or Space Empires 4 Deluxe as soon as they are available, preload and pre-purchase them before next Tuesday and take advantage of the preorder discount. This offer will expire next week when the games go live.
We mentioned last week that we'd be giving people a sneak peek at the two new models coming to Counter-Strike: Source this month, and hopefully these don't disappoint. Here are the new SAS and Leet Crew posing for the camera.

Counter Strike: Steam News Update!!!
"With the release of the map Militia looming for Counter-Strike: Source, we wanted to give the community a sneak peek at what the conversion will look like. As you can see, this new version of Militia is visually a dramatic departure from the previous version. There have also been a few changes to the way the map plays, which should make for some interesting matches.
We'd also like to point people in the direction of the Dystopia team, who last week did a major release of their popular Source MOD of the same name. Head on over to the Dystopia website to download their latest version.
