    Nov 26. But what year?
    By the time Quake 4 gets released? This release date don't feel right, seems like there's going to be another delay in the near future.

        4)VU can hold the game for 6 months. Too bad everyone playing CS:S will just tempt everyone to sell out to Steam

        5) VU is a troubled company, shareholders will not like the execs holding back the most anticipated game for 6 months. While Gabe Newell reaps ALL the marketshare/profits.
        To 4, I for one won't be buying over steam till people I know and enjoy playing online with do as well. They are waiting for the box. As will be the case with most people. General consensus is that they don't trust steam in it's current state. Let alone with their card details.



        To 5, This vast knowlege of the company came from where? Ah you're making assumptions...

            most companies operate in pretty much the same way, so his generalisation could be quite accurate :)



            as long as i can still play CSS beta for a few months, i dont care when its coming out.

              Why no simultaneous world release? It's idiotic to release in the USA first and then 3 days later in Europe, they'd get alot more money as less people would download it.

                  Most games in the US are released on a tuesday while in the UK (not sure how the rest of Europe operates) release on Friday. I have no idea why though.

                        umm .... your wrong but ok :) ... the first guy had it perfect when he said those things ....



                        steam's current state??? wtf is that supposed to mean ... steam works fine for me maybe you need a new comp or isp?



                        and dont trust them w/ card details??? explain yourself more if your going to flame some1



                        on the 5 issue .... its general business practice man .... its COMMON sense not assumptions ... if i punch some1 .. they will probably do something back .. thats COMMON sense .....



                        if any company held out on something that could give them money while another company took the same money they could be getting the shareholders would get PISSED .... sitting on something while another profits is NOT COMMMON sense

                          Stop being such a cheap bastard, didnt you realise that DoD actually went retail ?!!?!? i.e. you have to buy it now, and just because the original was free that shouldn't mean you should get the new one for free. The whole point of steam was so that 3rd party developers could sell their products, not give them away to retarded little kids who don't even have enough $ to buy it.....

                            Never know. His parents or even he or she, might own sharestocks with them... So he might have info, lay off... BUt yeah... COme on people, lets just wait and see. BUt who knows how long sigh!. Atleast let me listen to HL2 music :-D



                            Ohhh, better yet. How much will HL2 be... Will it be gay like Doom 3 and cost us an arm. Or will it will be cool and be like normals games around 40. Or how will they do this, is what I'm worried about, because I'm thinking Gold package going to cost like 80.00$ or something, hrf.

                              Hopefully HL:S doesn't suck. I want to beat Half Life before I play HL2 but the original Half Life is far too boring compared to the current generation of games to play all the way through. Hopefully HL:S will have the spice to make it worth it, but it seems they'd have to do alot of mapping to make HL:S. I hope they did it.
                              New lighting/water is about the only difference I've seen.
