Half-Life 2 Release Dates? [Oct 01, 2004, 08:02 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Half-Life 2 set
for 26th November in Europe on Eurogamer.net admits that Valve's shooter
sequel has yet to achieve gold status before mongering a rumor they've come
across that a November 26 European release date is to be announced soon and that
the North American release for the game will be November 23. They cite "retail
sources in the UK" for this information, though there's no indication where this
originated beyond that. They contacted VU Games about this and learned: "There
is a good chance Half-Life 2 will make it before this Christmas. We're targeting
the holiday season." They also have word from Valve's Doug Lombardi saying
"Unfortunately, I do not have a release date from VUG right now," going on to
express their own confidence this was just a smokescreen, saying Doug was "no
doubt under orders to wait until it's 'officially' announced." They also have
word that online reviewers will not get pre-release versions of the game.

The above line makes me a bit nervous. Why wouldn't they give a pre-release copy to online reviewers?
Now I wonder why theyre hiding the game from reviewers? Could it be cause the game sucks? They know it sucks, but they know everyone will buy it before the word gets out just how bad the game is?
thinks to ponder.
