Nov 5th was their old date.
they changed it to the 16th today.
personaly though im boycotting game, useless bunch of tits...
*pictures this*
Tiny store with 60 people in it
8 staff
1 of wich is on the till.
the others are on the phone or talking to their pals.
the que is 30...
Yes i agree, muse owns.
and yip its from a placebo video... think ive got it lying around on my D: drive somewhere.
Anyhow...
ive got full time college from now to the 16th (weekends are normal) so the time should pass quite quickly.
God forbid somebody should have to either.
A. wait a few days/weeks to get 2 games
B. save up before hand and get a few games at the same time
C. pick one game he wants more.
Just becuase some guy is taking a hissy fit becuase valve arent bothered about some console game does by no...
Some people realy need to start taking those pills the doctors give them.... ;)
but seriously... thats either part of one of Placebo's or muse's video's in your avatar...
im going for placebo.
Just incase somebody freaks out.
6-8 weeks is only for your tshirts and all that useless crap.
the game will be in your hands come the 16th... barring any major disasters like england winning some sporting event :naughty:
Your a fast one :sleep:
/sarcasm
the game was announced as gold yesterday and that it will be released on the 16th worldwide.
every gaming site thats even semi updated had that posted within 20 minutes of valve saying that.
Well im thinking steam silver.
33 pounds plus all the software gold has.
and its 17 pounds you arent paying to get extra crap like tshirts and badges that display just how little of a life you have to the public.
retail collectors edition:
Counter-Strike Source: The next generation of the #1 online action game.
Half-Life Source: Digitally remastered version of the original acclaimed PC game.
Limited Edition T-Shirt: Available in men's size XL only.
Half-Life 2 Prima Book: Information on...
Kinda resurecting an old (ish) thread but i need answers and this is the best thread i reckon...
The only difference between the Gold and Silver packs on steam is that you get a load of collectors stuff with the gold one that gets mailed to you....
Silvers the exact same as Gold software...
I wouldnt consider any of the games listed in the first post as potential sales damagers.
especialy halo 2 wich isnt even for the PC ffs. (i realise it will be ported craply to the pc in 2005)
Hl2 will break the world record for most sales of a PC game in its first week, its garuanteed...
Looks like im getting it from steam then... Games always come out on fridays in the UK (some wierd law thing) and the 16th is a tuesday.
hmmm.. ill be 19 on the 30th of Nov. early birthday present me thinks.
The only game i ever felt like "wow this is amazing" from the very first minute of the game was GTA 3.
i honestly played half life and didnt hear any PR at all about it, wasnt as great as some people would like to belive.
I think that a game needs a certain amount of PR for somebody to...
i think your gonna get warned for spamming intentionaly and then banned for bitching about getting warned.
seems to be the trend with most new folks these days.
uh dude, gold isnt a release date.
gold = game is finished and is getting copied onto retail cd's
after X amount of time its released to stores, Steam isnt getting it any earlier than the stores are.
great avatar :naughty:

on subject:
I would be tempted to belive the guy but the whole Sierra thing just destroys any credability in it for me.
i know i may be over reacting but this isnt the first (by a long shot) time somebody would have...
