half life 2

dhkimboa · September 24th, 2004

when is it gonna be out for pc? thanks

Coolsvilleman · September 24th, 2004

Well if what they say is true in about a month or two. Exact dates I wouldn't rely on yet. Though they may be holding out for a christmas release. Oh and I beleive that people who ordered it on "steam" can download a pre-texture package or something so there later download will not be as large. BTW: I think they already have a thread for this.

Mr.Smith · September 24th, 2004

No one knows yet. But Valve has sent the release candiate to Vivendi sometime last week so if all goes well, it should go gold soon.

dhkimboa · September 24th, 2004

thanks :d

Gabe Newell said "Half-Life 2 is days away from completion and we should expect it within the next 2-3 weeks" in an interview at Gphoria. But then again that was almost 3 months ago

Stifmeist · September 24th, 2004

i know N1ghtw0lf.

Valve has said that they had a problem with hackers or so, but tey are still exposeing it.
Man, iu really looking forward to it cames out!

Strider · September 24th, 2004

last i heard vivendi wanted to delay the release to mid november, which is also around the time rotk extended edition comes out

Mr. Killjoy · September 24th, 2004

I think it will take about 2 months from now, but I won't be suprised if it's released on mid-december

If that does end up being a grudge, they'll end up getting sued AGAIN, just for not letting their game go gold. At least we'd have a reason not to blame Valve this time. That'd, of course, mean a lot longer of a delay, though.

I love half life, but Im so sick of valve messing with my head, and thats exactly what they are doing, just messing with us.Just set a date allready and stop messing with my head!!!!

Squigi63 · September 25th, 2004

face facts, either it's never going to be released or when it does get released all the fanboys are going to ***** about how not good it was, and that it was delayed too long or it's too short. I wish this game was never made, its cause me more trouble than crabs.

zen_master · September 25th, 2004

When I think about it maybe they are delaying it so THAT wouldnt happen, maybe valve is trying to do theyr absolute best, so that it wouldnt be a dissapointment . I never thought about it like that... It kinda makes sence why are they delaying the game now..

Player-X · September 25th, 2004

If you don't want it just ignore it

read the article that was just posted. Valve can't set any release date, it's all up to vivendi, and they can hold it for up to 6 months.

RF · September 25th, 2004

Seems there will be a half-life 2 collectors edition for $79.99 usd. So its going to cost me $110CAD. Imo its gonna kick ass tho

I'll only get the Collector's Edition if the regular doesn't come with Half-Life: Source. And I wish the T-shirt they're packaging with it was in medium...I'd be floating in an XL.

Mr. Killjoy · September 25th, 2004

>> I'll only get the Collector's Edition if the regular doesn't come with Half-Life: Source

SKU3 will be the same as SKU2 concerning the content on the CDs/DVD, SKU3 only have some goodies added

Is that official? If that's true then screw the T-shirt.

Mr. Killjoy · September 25th, 2004

Yup that's what Valve said long time ago
