As the release is fast approaching and the lucky guy who went to valve pointed out that some steam/hl2 details will be released shortly, surely there will be a huge indication as to if the game will ship.
Because it's not exactly like the game will be in stores on the 30th after Gabe & the team spending all night working on it.
It's time to look into distrobution, It's granted that Sierra(Viveldi) have got all the boxes sitting ready in some machine to have the cd's inserted and a huge convoy leaving the headquarters off around the world. Or is it likely that distrobution will be done from each seperate major company producing, Does Sierra have manufacturer plants multinationally?
After all many games stores have titles a week in advance, as the 7 day broder closes in, we're sure to see a definite line.
Such an operation for a shipping date just 9 days away seems extremely vast and the paperwork and system analysis for such a system must be 'awesome'.
I have tried to avoid anything that has been likely to be dwelled (discussed) on before.
Oh yea, anyone else noticed on gameplay's front page that there is no longer any date for HL2 next to the link but it still exists on the game page? Mid Edit, I notice quite a few game pages have been updated, such as Game have now gone to TBC, Amazon have the date "December 1, 2003"
