mailbag: half-life 2 leak

[ziggie216]

Why do people think that the source code for HL2 cant be leaked? Just looking at Microsoft Windows, it's always some how out on the net. I rather have valve delay instead of having people hacking the code and screwing up the whole game

[sLy|Sandman]

lol ya what happened to counter-point and whats with the like 3 month delay between meail bags. As well i want my November calender Damn IT!.

It doesn't bother me all that much, unlike the obvious amount of people we all can see whining and crying because "VALVe is gay".. well stfu. They obviously have made great programs and games in the past, since you seem to play them. And as CheesyLeps said, more time for PC upgrades. :-)

Unfunniest mailbag I've ever read, but who the fuck cares?



Since when were mailbags supposed to be funny anyway. I enjoyed reading that more than any other mailbag.

A serious mailbag for once, cool.

[[cR@zY]Null]

Hmm well I still wonder, was the code real? Or just a smart way to delay HL2 once more?

[cheetarah654]

we asked for halflife2, thats what we got, the hacker was just giving us our demands :\



the importance of this mailbag is that halflife2 holds counter-strike's future..cs cant go on forever on the halflife 1 engine

I like how you didn't try to be funny with this topic, as this topic is nothing to laugh about.



Indeed, CS cannot live forever without HL2. I feel that the HL2 leak will cause some serious harm to Valve's bank account. However, they will get over this, and I trust that when it is released, it will be of great quality.



I, personally, try not to ponder the thought of a company decieving its customers. It true that the existence of a hacker, or of a working code, could be debateable. But you have to keep in mind the Valve is a pretty reputable company, and a lot is at stake when a company lies, and a lot of things can go wrong. I doubt Valve would have wanted to announce a game that they didn't have, or lie about a hacker that never existed.



On a side note, I doubt HL2 (and HL) fans would really like Max Payne 2, I mean c'mon, HL2 is a very BIG game, and it will dwarf all others.

I played Max Payne yesterday for the first time in months.

I know some games age badly, but it was a joke! Completely sucked!

On the contrary, I played it last weekend for the first time in months. I had a great time.

Thanks for a good mailbag asspennies. I think you actually managed to be meaner than rizzuh at times, even though I wasn't sure that was possible.



BTW, that picture of the faucet in the "Updates" section cracks me up every time I look at it!
