arse

like it really matters now.

 

[PainLord]

They are ****ing journalists. Theyll do anything for a story. Their source isnt valve therefore its bullshit. Now stop posting every link with this delay claim and go do something else. Im fed up with the amounts of idiotic spammers on this board.

Yahoo

Sorry, I certainly wasn't trying to be a "delay spammer" - I just thought it was significant that the "potential delay" actually made one of the top news stores on Yahoo.com.

I'll climb back under my rock now.

 

[Saltpeter]

Newssites know as much as we do.

 

[manny_c44]

How can yahoo have a coverstory?

Its a website.

 

[mortiz]

it's the same announcement that Reuters covered. Just because Yahoo have it as a front page story doesn't make it any more into rock solid proof

Christophe Ramboz, VU Games' president of international operations:


"A third of the source code was stolen. It's serious because it forces us to delay the launch of the game by at least four months, that is to April 2004. Just the time to rewrite parts of the game."

Valve, though, has not confirmed that delay. (Calls to the developer were not returned.) That's an important thing to note. Large independent game developers such as Valve and id Software typically decide when their games are released – not the publishers.
