Hey, i was just reading my new PC Gamer magazine and it says that HL2 will ship on 9-28-03... HMM, Ebgames says it ships in November, so what's the deal? Does anyone know when it really ships? Thanks guys, i just need to know if i should buy groceries this month or not... :confused:

You're in luck! It's been pushed back to Q3 2004 so you can eat this month!
But if for some reason it does come out this month you can have your cake and eat it too. Just turn tricks on main street and not only will you get to play some Half Life goodness but you'll be able to down a pabst blue ribbon and a bag of doritoes at the same time. All it'll cost you is your dignity.

LOL Hell, thank the lord for my wife, if it wasn't for her, I'd be on a liquid diet (but with games to play once per week)!

Q3?? NOOOOOOOO, i was willing to live with food stamps!
And for you Steve, praise your wife and go buy her a new game.
Don't worry, he's having you on. It's still provisionally on for a Sept. 30th shipping date. You can safely resume your self-imposed starvation. Have fun! :)

Gamespot is saying that HL2 will be released later this year. Could it be that Renzantic meant Q4 2003? Who knows. I'll just be glad when it finally comes out without any "bugs". If you know what I mean.

I'm so dissapointed, i feel like those guys on the flash movie!!!
If Valve doesn't even have any set dates scheduled, then i'm afraid that they're going to postpone the game past the christmas season... (you guys remember Team Fortress 2?)
Gakk, just found out after I posted when I went to pick up Gothic 2. Q4 2003 they say, but we'll be lucky if we see it before Christmas.

I knew this was gonna happen. Oh well, to help you through this time of mourning, make sure you pick up Chrome to tide you over!

Well, it plays MUCH better than it even looks. I'm excited about this one, and it's a game I will stop at nothing to get... Even selling off all my GCN games is a distinct possiblity if I don't have cash on me on release day... The demo is sweet.
