Half-Life 2 Is GOLD! 36 Comments
10/18/2004 11:14 PST | Community | by -1313-Evil_Homer
Vivendi has made it official and just sent out this press release for Half-Life 2.

LOS ANGELES (October 18, 2004) Vivendi Universal Games (VU Games) today announced that Half-Life® 2, the sequel to one of the most critically acclaimed PC titles in gaming history, will ship to retail outlets around the world in November. The Company confirmed that Half-Life 2, developed by Valve Software, has gone gold with a planned retail street date of November 16, 2004. The countdown to the highly anticipated retail street date has begun around the world, as VU Games completes plans to ship localized versions of Half-Life 2 simultaneously in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Korean, Thai and Japanese.

“Half-Life 2 has surpassed our expectations in every sense – its high-quality graphics, ground-breaking physics and immersive first-person shooter gameplay set a new standard for PC action games,” said Bruce Hack, CEO of VU Games. “Half-Life 2 will go down as one of the best-selling PC titles, and we are thrilled to deliver this ground-breaking title to the worldwide gaming community this fall.”

I contacted Vivendi to check if the November 16th date was only for North America, or worldwide as well:
"It should be global"
Hope that helps - especially for you UK fans who ask us almost daily.





THE WAIT IS OVER,HL2 IN LESS THAN A MONTH!!!!

Not that good. Already played it and i must say it is really cheesey. One mission you have to grind tombs as a Doctor to rise the dead then run over the zombies with your skateboard, then go down into hell grind in a circle get shot outta hell, and Reserrect(sp?) Jesus
