    The same game it'll be tomorrow, just a year old?

    It <i>wouldn't</i> have been released a year ago.
    Did you read that... documentary, or however you would call it? It wasn't ready at all last year. Gabe tried to get it ready, but 3 months before the release date, he knew he wasn't going to make it.
    Oh wait. He also said that if he were to release the game back then, it would be approximately half of what it is now... or something like that.
    Half? I'm not settling for that! I would have rather waited for the complete version. And I did.

    I want Full-Life 2 >_> <_< My computer sucks too hard to play HL2, only 256 mb RAM.

    Had HL2 been released in the past then vALVE would be working on HL3 or possibly Marathon: Teh Better Edition, with Bungie.

    There's a great article (long too) on gamespy/spot which says why.

    Wasnt his reason for confirming the 9/30 date being "I **** up" in a more dramatic tone?

    Agreed. And now I wait some more, even though it is there, because my computer continues to suck.

    That WOULD be nice and ironic, however.
