CS:CZ wasnt held back 5 months waiting for the right time to release it.
It was held back cos it got slated by PC Zone in an exclusive review, they gave it something like 50% saying it was CS with new maps.
next thing that happened was a misterious delay and the game comes out completely...
It was announced as gold yesterday.
that however does not mean it whent gold yesterday.
Developers regularly hold back the gold announcement.
so their goes that niave theory out the window.
:laugh:

Obviously saying HL2 for any of those would be retarted since its not even out.
Damn, look at the fanboys running to valves protection yet again.
Its so damn funny i mean, one minute they will be like
"OMGZ teh *insert game here* doesnt have *insert minor feature here*... hl2 pwnz that shiot1111opneoenmsafm"

I find hl2 fanboys flaming DNF for being late quite ironic considering Valve are doing THE EXACT SAME THING.

Its becuase we are tired of fanboys like yourself who after a year of what can only be described of as a complete joke still think valve can do no wrong.
Ive never seen such a apparently proffesional company mess up so many things.
no doubt though your head will be buried deep in a sea of...
Put it this way, i wont cry if the game never comes out.
with RTW and other games like DOW and COD expac coming this month i realy dont care when HL2 comes anymore.
Valve said sept 30th for months.
They never once said any other date up until 6 days till release.
and right up until then they where letting people upgrade their machines solely to play HL2 on full settings knowing fine well that the game would never see the light of day in that year...
I would rather see 1 good post with 5-6 people quoting it in agreement than 1 good post followed by 5-6 people saying the same thing but with different wording.
