Release Month Betting Pool!

its also rare for a game to get delayed because of a little spotty 8 year old trying to be 'cool' by hacking valve, but there you go.

if it was delayed due to proper reasons id agree with you but i dont

christ even the staff members are nuts now.

Quote VALVE: "the leak DID NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111!!!!!!1111 delay the game, it would have been delayed anyway"

:flame:

Last I heard was November.. but I vote september since november is not an option and it's nearer then never

A source would be nice.

I'm bored. So lets have a wack at the release month and see what the general level of confidence in Valve is at this stage, seeing as we've heard no news from them since Jesus switched the water jug with the wine one.

Where is the 2005 option?

 

[Tyrant]

ive got my money on June. seems about right, april is too early, september too late then again as the other guy said there may be delays because steam cant handle such big releases at the moment.

 

[Sp00fman]

My vote is on march. Can't help it, i still trust valve to release the game soon... silly me!

Next month comes the SDK, and in march finally HL2.

regarding CZ..... wasn't the whole idea of CZ that you could play against bots, for the ppl that don't have broadband? I bet there are only a handfull of 56k gamerss silly enoug to download anything through steam.

I chose April but i feel they may release it early May... Hopefully April though

 

[Brian Damage]

February.

I hope.

 

[mrchimp]

I say April, I'v had gut feeling it's April for ages, but if the SDK isn't released next month I'll move my prediction to september.

 

[PvtRyan]

Really, I don't know. April sounds nice, but remember all we base this date on is one comment from a Vivendi employee.
I hope it's either before may, or after 23rd of june (my exams are in between those dates)

 

[chimpmunk]

Hope it's the earliest possible, even tough if they release it before june, i'll still have school that means i'll miss a lot of classes to play

 

[X-FacToR]

July+ Our luck so far.. July or later.

 

[ferd]

May
but I think it might be even earlier

 

[csmighty1]

September 30th is my guess. When someone aks Valve why they chose September 30th they would say, "Oh! I'm sorry guys, we meant Sept. 30 2004!" And then the world would feel dumber....

April would be nice, but I wouldn't be suprised if it was September. April! *crosses fingers*
If not april I'll *shakes fist*

 

[Darg]

hrm... I'll say september simply cos it's a year from their original release date. That way they can say they really did mean september all along... just september '04...

Plus by then I shoulda save enough money for a new computer

 

[Stage]

November or later.

 

[dafire]

I guess it's next year.. hey .. they just got the "most wanted game for 2004" award thingy... guess they think they can also get the "most wanted game for 2005" award with hl2 ... hmm wait.. why not 2006, 2007 ....

 

[doser]

the game will be out this year.

there is no reason why it wont be.

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

Lets hope so eh!


Desert Combat isnt as good as it used to be anymore. Its full of ignorant sellfish bastards. Which means I can't use it to pass the time till HL2.

 

[Atari]

Condition Zero - Feb
SDK - March
HL2 - April

 

[OCybrManO]

I love reading all of these "April is too soon" posts... because, obviously, these people know something the rest of us don't.

I already made my guess in another thread... so, if you want it you'll have to go look for it.

 

[DigitalAssassin]

April. Please, please be april.
