HL2 is now gold, my HTML skills need some brushing up so its not linked, however if your too lazy to copy-paste on line, i did the two paragraphs from that first link right here, but still visit the link and see all the pretty pictures that are *not* Half-Life 2.
"LOS ANGELES (October 18, 2004) Vivendi Universal Games (VU Games) today announced that Half-Life® 2, the sequel to one of the most critically acclaimed PC titles in gaming history, will ship to retail outlets around the world in November. The Company confirmed that Half-Life 2, developed by Valve Software, has gone gold with a planned retail street date of November 16, 2004. The countdown to the highly anticipated retail street date has begun around the world, as VU Games completes plans to ship localized versions of Half-Life 2 simultaneously in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Korean, Thai and Japanese.
"Half-Life 2 has surpassed our expectations in every sense its high-quality graphics, ground-breaking physics and immersive first-person shooter gameplay set a new standard for PC action games," said Bruce Hack, CEO of VU Games. "Half-Life 2 will go down as one of the best-selling PC titles, and we are thrilled to deliver this ground-breaking title to the worldwide gaming community this fall."
Somebody removed my first itteration of this topic for unstated reasons, although i think i kknow who and why, also, feel free to go off topic, just to cover out asses. It wasn't me who purportedly deleted a post of your's but advocating abuse of Comnet is quite likely some form of really vile CoC violation at worst and insubordination at best. Welcome to your fine. - Fury

As usual, I can't understand a single sh!.. thing of what Snipes is trying to communicate to us. What in the blue hell do squares have to do with HL2's release?
Nevermind.
The important thing is this : Half-Life 2 + Counter-Strike : Source equals extreme sexual pwnage.
Let gaming be re-revolutionised and redefined again by Gordon Freeman, leet nerd scientist, for the second time. This time with a sexy sidekick to boot and an even sexier .45 USP Match to kick alien ass with.
half-life and counter-strike forever!!!!1111one -----------------------

As I'm sure you guessed, I was the one who removed the thread. ONCE AGAIN you can't watch what you type so instead of taking the time to edit your post I just deleted it. If you don't like it, take it up with my one and only superior (Kad). :P -----------------------

oh, i swore, wasnt expecting that one, thought it was my title formatting(bolds and caps) yeah, though, i knew it was you, i hope to God HL2 sucks, i hope PCGamers 98% was unjustified, i'd laugh my ass off, and i though CS:Source only came with the d/led version, the erason my thinking is thus is that i was hoping for more from D3, and sence i didnt get that. . .
Hashi: a square means somebody who's not cool, more or less, it was more of an 80's term, but i like it alot, Tal knew what i ment.

Square is an 80s term? WTH?
Trust me, I grew up in the 80s and we NEVER used that term. You must've mixed up your fetal alcohol dreams with the re-runs of Leave it to Beaver running in the background.
Yes, I know that was uncalled for. Delete it if you must. -----------------------

No, it's pretty true.. "Square" came well before the 80s. -----------------------

ah wich would explain why its popping up again, probably a 60's-70's term, wich would fit with the annoying new retro style crap that seems to be going around, gar, well, one word i will stop using.
crap man, you coulda just told me it was pre-80's, i'm running on guesswork here, i never saw the 80's, atleast not that i can remember, all i realy can know its that its a pre-99 term, i stopped drinking as much, thank you very much, and i dont even know what leave it to beaver is.

"Leave It to Beaver" was an old TV show, about some kid named Beaver or something like that. Can't remember the decade, though. 50's? 60's? Think it was somewhere around there. -----------------------
