Template:Archived Page History/Half-Life 2: Deathmatch/en

Half-Life 2: Deathmatch was released on November 30, 2004 as the multiplayer component to Half-Life 2. Gameplay is fundamentally identical to Deathmatch Classic, and the multiplayer mode in Half-Life, where players get one point for each kill and they lose a point for each suicide.

Half-Life 2: Deathmatch was, at one period of time, available free for users of certain ATI and Nvidia graphics cards.
