It seems a tad appropriate that the Fourth of July holiday weekend will also have a new major update for Day of Defeat Source, the WWII multiplayer shooter from Valve. The developer just released that update to the game via their Steam client, adding a lot of new content and features.

The new version adds a new map to the game, Palermo, which is based loosely on the real Italian city that was the site of one of US General George S Patton's victories (it' also based on a popular community made map Sarleno). The update also adds 51 new achievements to the game, player stats, Steam Community integration and a new freeze cam that will let players look to see who killed them (and even take a screenshot of the event). Some new visual effects to the game have been added as well. People who haven't player Day of Defeat Source will be happy to know that from July 4-6 you will be able to play the full game for free.
