Highly anticipated Half-Life 2 mod Neotokyo is launching on Friday. It will, of course, be a free download for anyone who's already purchased Half-Life 2, and will be available on their website, located here. It's been described by some as a game that "took a bunch of concept from Ghosts in a Shell and slapped them into Source." And no, that isn't a bad thing. Ten maps will be made available at launch, all sporting the "Capture the Ghost" mode. It's like capture the flag, except with a manikin body, which is sort of awesome. There's no time given yet, but the 900MB zip file will pop up sometime on Friday.

There's a trailer below for anyone unconvinced that "free" is cheap enough, and it might be the best edited trailer for a mod I've ever seen. Seriously, check it out, you'll be drooling in no time.
