The Ship

Sounds like fun.

The concept is great, it's one of my favorite HL1 mods. I think the one for HL2 was shown at E3.

They'll probably have a "play free for one weekend" as they did with Day of Defeat.

I really like the idea. Unfortunatelly I am incapable of purchasing anything on steam at the mo.
Think it's about time I get a creditcard :(

I understand the premice and have watched the trailor, but I still dont think I have a good idea of how this game works... is it 1st person? 3rd? Are you given a weapon randomly? Is this an on going game world, like a type of MMORPG or is it played in rounds or on teams? I guess I may have to wait for a free trial.

It's a round based game played in the first person. You find weapons scattered around the ship and are also allowed to outfit yourself with clothing and accessories also found scattered around the ship. At the beginning of the round, you are given a target and you get a different amount of money depending on how you kill your target. Every minute or so you get an update on your target's last known position on the ship, but you've still got to track and kill him(or her) without witnesses to the crime.
