Half-Life 2 For Sale?
November 13, 2004, 4:57 pm · valve
If you have purchased a copy of Half-Life 2, we are sorry you are still waiting to play. This is not Valve's choice. Vivendi is insisting that the game has not yet been released, and has threatened that Valve would be in violation of its contract if we activate the Half-Life 2 Steam authentication servers at this time.
Thanks for your patience and we will update you when we have more news to share.

There may be a snowball effect with retailers all selling early (to avoid losing sales), at which point Vivendi may bring forward the release date - although I doubt they'd do it on a Sunday, many places are closed - and Vivendi would lose revenue.
