    First congrats to gameservers.com for securing the exclusive rights to host the COD: Black Ops servers.

    Do you wish you could play Alien Swarm in First Person view? Well check this video out.



    You can pretty much see what to do from the vid, the only extra bit of information you need is that to bring up the console, you have to go to Options > Keyboard > Enable developer console. Then hit ` (to the left of 1) and type:

    firstperson
    asw_hide_marine 1
    asw_controls 0



    It doesn’t feel quite as slick as a native first-person game, of course, but it works remarkably well. It might actually be easier for hitting those goddamn flying things that stun you.
