Half-Life 2
held hostage on GameSpot has more information from the ongoing legal battle
between Valve and Sierra/Vivendi, indicating that it's possible that the release
of Half-Life 2 could potentially be delayed by as much as six months as a result
of the spat. The following was entered into the court records by VU Games'
deputy general counsel Eric Roeder:
"Valve has announced that it will deliver a release candidate version of Half-Life 2 (HL2) (a game required under the 2001 SPA) to Sierra/VUG within the next few weeks. If Valve delivers a release candidate version that complies with the contract and is a Final Milestone, then VUG will have six months to release the product under the 2001 SPA. Valve is pressing VUG to release the product early within that six month window, and its representatives have made a number of public statements without our consent or concurrence that the product will be published and released to the general public in September of this year."
