Half-life 2 delayed until summer
There
are few games that I'm eager to play, let alone buy them, but Half Life 2
belongs definitively to this really small category. I was about to buy it on the
original announced released, September the 30, 2003.
But as a lot of people like me subsequently
find out, things were going differently. The main reason was the theft of the
original code of the 3D engine - source- by hackers. The game was delayed until December
and is now announced on April but will more likely be released on the E3
in May. If nothing else happen, of course...
The expectations are high for both gamers
and the game industry. As they expect the PC Game sales to be boosted by HL2.
(Will people buying HL2 will therefore buy others game? I don't see the
connection...)
Anyway waiting is really frustrating, isn't it ?
