Its Gamespot's weekly Rumor Control, and they give Halflife2.net props for being the only site to catch the fact that the interview with the delay rumor was quite old.
However, only one--Halflife2.net--noticed a vital piece of information--namely, that the quote was from September 2003, when Newell was discussing hypothetical scenarios after the now-infamous code leak.
 
Second time Gamespot's recognized HL2.net in HL2 related news posts :thumbs:
 
yeah. I just noticed that. A little bit of free advertising...... :)
 
hmm...I didn't really understand that let me read through that again o_0
 
Not necessarily.
Hl2 . net is being commended essentially for doing something
gamespy is being noticed as commending hl2.net.
Actually, you could see it either way. They are good because they recognize us, or we are advertizing for them, or the third way which is that it isn't mutual "nodding"

i probably left something out
 
What? you can't say ****? **** that! Shit! Sorry, quite drunk right now.
 
People on irc still believe it has been cancelled to 2OO5...tbh the first thing I did when i heard was surf to HL2.net, and i was happy to see the news was fake :)

HL2.net 4EVA!!!!!
Thanks guys, couldn't do it without you.

Sprafa, can you resize your signature please. They need to be less than four lines or they take up too much room and people get annoyed.

Thanks buddy :cheers:

We're talking about the 2005 thingy aren't we?
I thought that was a recent response to why the game was delayed back in september. :o
 
We seem to be about the only fan site that actively questions and investigates things rather than running to the hills 'OMG,OMG, OMG' style.
 
Thanks guys, we really do take pride in trying to give you all the news as it is, and as quickly as possible.
 
lol alot of other fan sites hate us but then they start believing the stupid delay to 2005 rumors and we end up debunking those rumors them and making them look stupid. I love hl2.net

/me shakes everyones virtual hands in congradulations
 
It's because we're the only ones who understand the concept of time.
 
This site owns, this is seriously the best community i've ever been lucky enough to be a part of. Mods, admins, continues with your very good work!

/me chugs beers at the admins and mods.
 
I think this is the best community because we actually have rules to get rid off idiots. Most sites dont bother because they just want more members and more hits.



We are above all that! :)

Kinda....
