Half Life 2 officially supports the Oculus Rift, Pokemon X and Y get a new gameplay trailer,

and much more! Hey guys, I'm Jess, and this is the Curse Weekly Roundup.

Pokemon X and Y, the first generation of Pokemon games for the 3DS, have received a new gameplay

trailer - it's short, but promising, and Nintendo's gearing up for a big Pokemon announcement

on Saturday, which we'll fill you in on during our Marriland Pokemon Update on Monday! Show

of hands, who's getting these games on launch day? I wanna know WHICH one you're getting

though - comment below and tell me whether you'll be picking up X, Y, or neither!

And speaking of Nintendo, YouTuber ZackScottGames recently noticed that something odd was happening

with his gameplay videos - apparently Nintendo's using YouTube's Content ID system to identify

videos containing Nintendo gameplay. They've been claiming ownership of these videos and

taking the ad revenue for themselves - low blow, dude. These content creators are essentially

giving you free advertising and talking to hundreds of thousands of subscribers about

how great your games are....and you're going after the few dollars they would've made off

that content? Nintendo, what are you doing? Stahp!

Moving right along, Half Life 2 will officially support the Oculus Rift. First off, let's

get the obligatory Half Life 3 being delayed joke out of the way. Anyway, the Rift is just...amazing

- I actually got to try the demo of EVR on it at Fanfest, and it WAY cooler than I'd

even been expecting - I can't wait to see what Half Life 2 will be like on it. Have

any of you guys gotten a chance to try the Oculus Rift? Leave me a comment and let me

know what you thought of it! And in case you've got one of the dev kits, we'll drop a link

in the description with instructions on how to get Half Life 2 on it.

In other Valve news, Dota 2's Ti3, or their upcoming third International tournament, has

officially reached the largest prize pool in eSports history. They're taking an interesting

crowdfunding approach, starting with a prize pool of 1.6 million dollars and increasing

it by selling interactive tournament guides. At the time we recorded this, the prize pool

had reached ________ and still going! Even if you hate Dota and think League's better

- you gotta admit, this is a victory for eSports all around. Oh, and if you wanna catch OUR

Dota 2 invitational, remember that's still going on - this is the final weekend of the

tournament, and the winner's bracket finals begin at 2 PM Eastern with Liquid versus NaVi.

Alright guys, who's gonna win? Comment below and lemme know who you're rooting for.

Let's take a break from Valve and talk about Rift - it looks like they're jumping on the

Free-to-Play bandwagon - not surprising after SWTOR's quick turnaround, and considering

WoW's been dropping subscribers lately. Rift will be free to play as of June 12th, bringing

with it the game's update 2.3, titled Empyreal Assault - but spelled all fantasyish and old

timey. This update adds a new zone, world event, Chronicle, and "stronghold" challenges.

And moving on...back to.more Valve news. A listing for something called Steam Trading

Card Beta was found on Steam's servers over last weekend - that's literally ALL we know

but that definitely sounds interesting - is this going to be a way to trade items and

games, or maybe just a fun little game to amuse us? Go ahead and lemme know what you

think in the comments, and whoever has the most creative answer for what Gaben's cooking

up this time will win a $20 Steam gift card.

THat's all for this week, but go ahead and hit that subscribe button if you haven't already,

and give us a like while you're at it if you wanna see more gaming news and giveaways!
