Summary: Yum yum. Strange Bacon Grease isn’t just the title of this week’s show, it’s also one of the items released into the game. With it your run-of-the-mill pan can be made into a strange pan to record the score of your panging pan kills. This, along with the Mann Co. Painting Set is one of the possible drops from the three new crates just added, #50, #56 and #57. If you purchased Valve’s soundtrack CD, Portal 2: Songs to Test By then it’s time to break the seal and look inside the case. That code will earn you an Ap-Sap. If you bought the songs over any of the e-stores, you’re SOL. The good news is that you can still buy it and retroactively claim the device which will talk to you in Wheatley’s psychotically depressed voice. Just what you’ve always wanted. While the indie title Don’t Starve! is still in pre-release it’s possible to get your hands of a Ham Shank (teehee) and your head on a Wilson Weave. In related news several new hats and items have been added but not yet identified. Some say they are to become part of a promo pack for Poker Night and the Inventory 2. A game yet to be announced. Ruskeydoo may have some inside knowledge but he’s not saying. Actually he mysteriously disappears to make a nice cup of tea around about the time we started to talk about it. Funny that. Still, we have some news from our own BubbleBobbler that the Dapper Disguise will be facial distorted when the spy speaks his lines. Now I want to see it too. Two more things on the updates, I think we’ve figured out what sb_filter_incompatible_versions does and the TF2 beta has been brought up to date so they can run further tests on the Steampipe update… whenever that will be. If you’ve been following the hardware news you may be under the impression that Xi3′s new Piston box is a steam box. Apparently Valve don’t think it is. Xi3 unsurprisingly dispute this.
