haha

well go over to hl2fallout and tell everyone to come to hl2.net for a party...

 

[poseyjmac]

they aren't allowed to express joy lol

 

[otomo]

this is the only thread not to get closed in days it seems like mods are really close happy here

 

[mchammer75040]

hl2.net mods you need to put some freaking celebaration banner on the front page

 

[Mr. Redundant]

This is why people get angry at Valve.

prime example.
people get really excited at an announcement by a Valve member/Valve.
Valve misses date, doesnt say anything, then admits a delay.
people who were so happy praising Valve, feel utterly slapped in the face. (merely because they got so damn happy, because they thought Valve would actually meet a deadline.. but those expectations are quite unrealistic in this case)

then people bitch about how they missed the date, and how Valve really need to invest in some decent PR, and perhaps have better scheduling/team communication.

Valve zealots rush in and insult the people saying crap about Valve, simply because they love Valve like a long lost puppy who sits defenslessly out in the rain on a cold night...

but in the end...
EVERYONE ENDS UP WAITING.

 

[ShinRa]

yea seriously the front page looks ****in boring for such a great announcement. put a picture at least!

Lets not be hasty, I'd start making one for when it comes out though...

(Unless they have one from September of last year, )

 

[Jack_Karverboy]

Evertime I click this thread theres two new pages lol :cheese:

Hydra, Another Tech question, Did u choose the x800xt for the simple fact it runs haflife2 better than the Geforce 6800 Ultra or was it something else.......

 

[poseyjmac]

ROFL!!!

[D@Linkwent]

Yeah, they need to decorate the Front page of Halflife2 with banners and party hats, maybe beers on the side who knows, Also confetty never hurt noone, unless scientiests were mistified over paper rain
Good old Family guy joke

 

[Malfunction]

Linkwent, the x800 XT PE is an all around better card.

rofl that got a good laugh outta me

 

[OCybrManO]

I love the way that guys says...

"Guinny
Hydra"

... as if Hydra is part of his name.

 

[AlaskanStewie]

I guess this is a good time to convert some people to Christianity? Eh? Maby Not... Ehh...

 

[poseyjmac]

your xtpe certainly is the top dog right now, but the 6800gt and x800pro are pretty much neck and neck in hl2. nvidias no slouch

 

[D@Linkwent]

Guinny, IN the long run The x800xt wont have Shader 2.0 so what do u mean in the long run its betteR?

 

[ShinRa]

I shall hereby be called...guinny hydra.

 

[Locust]

I would laugh my ass off if they decided to say "Just kidding" about the gold statement.

 

[ShinRa]

Guinny, IN the long run The x800xt wont have Shader 2.0 so what do u mean in the long run its betteR?

because ps3.0 doesnt really bring any amazing performance to the table. the only reason ati's cards cant keep up in games is because of their poor open gl codepath.

 

[GuNzABlaZiN]

I would laugh my ass off if they decided to say "Just kidding" about the gold statement.

I wouldn't, I'd be heartbroken. Gimme a hug.

Dude.. think positive! If they miss the date, you have have many accompanying you in the bitching.
