I am writing this post in response to all those ppl who are getting angry at valve.
Valve has a huge reputation to live up to. Their debut game won game of the year awards from over 50 different publications, and cmon, we all played it, It was f***ing awesome. If valve didnt put enough effort into this and released a crappy product, the HL community would be seriously pissed off. They set their own bar extremely well with the first one, and they know they better make the second one blow it away.
also a word on what herbster said in his post (All i want to say is: screw you valve) they werent a week away from completion. they were a week away from the goal they had set for themselves. If you think about it, you dont finish the game one day and have it shipped out the next day. The cds have to be burned, playtesting, production, it takes awhile to do all that stuff.
personally, i too am one of those ppl who gets my hopes up when the scheduled release date is coming, and get let down when it passes. but every time that happens, i know that its gonna be an awesome game because of all the work theyre putting into it. 4 years on the engine alone, this better better be a good game.
TAKE YOUR TIME VALVE
