There's a Day of Defeat preview on GameSpy.com based on getting to attend a press event last night, where they learned more about the retail plans for this game that started life as a Half-Life modification: "Activision will not only be publishing Day of Defeat as a standalone game, but this will mark the beginning of a partnership with Valve Software spanning several games." They also offer news that the game is imminent, expected on store shelves on May 6. They quote some of the developers and the folks from Valve, and provide the gameplan for updating the free version of the mod:

Current online players need not worry about missing out on the fun. According to Lombardi, Valve is planning to release patches to make sure the online and retail versions of DoD are fully compatible, including the updated maps, weapons and code base. (The new maps are also being planned for an online release, but not immediately. )

..was on I believe David Letterman quite a few years back, making jokes about online gaming and Quake1 in particular. At one point, he makes a reference to himself playing Quake online, and said something to the effect of:

"Quake is great! I get to run around in dark scary places, where the college kids jump out from behind corners and blow my head off.. Then proceed to play soccer with my decapitated head!"

I LMFAO heh
