Just because it's a SOURCE game does not make it a mod... the game was developed by Turtle Rock Studios (and subsequently bought out by valve.) It costs $45-$50 because it is a new IP that I'm sure will continue to take up the majority of their resources for a few months while they fix everything and make sure more people buy it.
I'm pretty sure
CSS still costs $20 and that's just a prettier version of
CS (which IS a mod)... at least this is a new game ;P
That being said, get 3 real people together, play on Expert a couple of times... wayyyyy more fun than bots or 2 people (and Expert in the 2 demo levels isn't that hard.) I personally can't wait for Versus with 7 friends (yay TeamShovelinians) because pouncing on the guy who just HAD to go back to get his gun, or rescue his dead friend from the closet is going to make my night. Campaign is great, but I'll probably only play it through a couple of times or if there aren't 7 people on to do Versus with.
