Half-Life 2: Delay? Maybe, Playable? Yes [Oct 07, 2003, 4:42 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
New delay for
Half-Life sequel on BBC News (thanks Eraserhead) has a quote from Christophe
Ramboz of Vivendi Universal Games on the Half-Life 2 source code theft that
takes a completely different direction than the talk of four month delays found
in a different article (story), as they have him saying:
"Vivendi Universal Games is only the distributor of the product, which is
produced by the US studio Valve and so it will up to them to make an
announcement." Meanwhile, Thieves
steal playable version of Half-Life 2 on CNN Money contradicts reports that
downplay the amount of code stolen, choosing to reveal that the Source
source thieves "also stole enough game maps and other components to put
together a playable build of the game. Today, five days after the first leak,
they have released that build."
Can we maybe put this to rest? The facts have been said almost 20 times in the same thread. We'll know more in a couple days, now that it's an international event (which I bet these theiving hacking bastards are lovin'), I don't think Valve or Vivendi are gonna keep quiet. Vivendi especially, they have shareholders busting down their door wanting to know why their one last saving grace for this year is not gonna make it...Bet they're kicking themselves in the ass now for cancelling Babylon 5: ITF...
