Why is there no new hl2 news?

[Piecemak3r]

Seriously, im going stir crazy.

No way dood, the last time i unlocked the hl2 thread i killed church. (If you dont get it, dont ask.)

 

[MistaB]

Call up Gabe and ask him

:cheese:

 

[Owskie]

bout time some one flat out asked that question

 

[nostgard]

Because every time Valve announces something, God kills a kitten.

 

[Piecemak3r]

um, yeah. i dont think thats it. You may need to seak professional help. Seriously dood.

LOL @ AVATAR!

 

[SilentKilla]

Probably because everytime valve says a certain word, every site in the world writes a false statement. If Gabe would even say the word Delay, i would hide, in my basement, with guns, no matter if he was saying it WONT be delayed or will be, people will still make false statements.

[Cheetarah654]

hl2 is comming out.

[Piecemak3r]

well that makes a little more sense but is still very dissapointing

 

[Apos]

I'm sure people are already emailing, calling, and IMming them on Steam like crazy. But they aren't going to say anything until they are good and ready.

 

[MistaB]

yeah, i called them but gabe wasnt at his phone.

 

[Apos]

MAybe they've all given up and left for vacation while Erik Johnson slaves away to get steam working.

Gamespot, September 12. 2003:

"Valve remained tight lipped about Half-Life 2's release date at this week's press event. However, Gabe Newell, Valve's founder and managing director, did note that the Half-Life 2 benchmark program will be included in the box when the software does ship and that it will be distributed to the press on September 30. Taken in combination, these two bits of information make it doubtful that the game will ship on September 30, Valve's announced release date. "

That's the latest status beside the old ECTS 08/28/03 "Sept 30 = release" statements from Valve.

It's getting late for a big public announcement.

Well, its 9 PM EST, which is 6 PM PST.....theres still a little bit of time left. But doubtful we'll hear anything tonite. I say give it until Friday. If we do not hear a peep out of Valve on Friday, then consider it delayed.

 

[TheOriginalEvil]

I just got C&C Generals: Zero Hour, which is very fun for an RTS... I don't think I'm gunna be waiting around for an announcement tonite.

If we haven't heard anything by October 1st we're just gonna have to hunt down whoever invented that saying, because then nothing could be further from the truth.
