The guys over at Battle-fields.com have kicked up an interview with Valve Software's Erik Johnson regarding Steam, Half-life updates and more. Here's a taste:

Counter-Strike will be receiving some significant content with this update, can you first detail the new weapons and riot shield that will be making an appearance?
There are two new rifles in Counter-Strike 1.6: the FAMAS and Galil. The FAMAS is an accurate and fast firing assault rifle. It has both single-shot and burst modes of fire. The Ts get the Galil, which is less accurate but does more damage.
The CTs will have the option of buying a Riot Shield that should mostly be used as the first line of defense when storming Ts that are holed up in their base (see pics 3 & 4).
