I almost always judge release dates based on when ebgames.com is saying games will ship and they had the delayed release months ago..so this isnt news anymore.

All of you folks were expecting the game to ship in 6 days?!?!? Just because it's supposed to be tied in with the new R9800XT, does this mean that HL2 that comes with the new Vid card is the full game, or a 'special version' (not the same what you get with the full retail)? I bet ATI is pissed at this as well, since they were expecting to bundle the game with their new card that is launching in 6 days.
Maybe the game was delayed to give Nvidia time to get up to speed with their drivers, and correct the horrid performance?
But I don't know many ATF'ers were thinking the game was going to be released on 9-30-03? I pre-ordered at CompUSSR (part of that 40% off thing) and their ship date is Nov 14th, and so is EB Games ship date. So I was expecting to get this game in November, but now I have no idea.
Now a 'holiday date' could also mean Thanksgiving, but it could mean New Years as well....................
Just my $0.03

Damn right. I remember seeing some demos on TechTV that looked amazing. Too bad THAT never happened.
Looks like I have more time to preorder HL2 then

I've heard that it will run on an old system with a TNT but I ignore it for two reasons:Originally posted by: Pocatello
That's silly, I've heard that HL2 is playable even on a DX 7 videocard
1) I think they are lying (although my PC can probably play it: Celeron 1000, 512 ram, geforce 3 ti 200 overclocked)
2) It's really just not right to be running HL2 on low graphics. It deserves better.
*BONUS REASON* My PC needs an upgrade BADLY and HL2 has been a tentative marker for it.

Croteam is referring to the game as SS2.Originally posted by: KnightBreed
No, I meant Serious Sam 2. The Second Encounter was considered an expansion pack. The true sequel SS2 is coming out next year.Originally posted by: CPA
I'll sell you mine.
I think you meant Serious Sam The Third Edition. And I thought I was the only one waiting for this to come out. Haven't seen anything on it yet, though.

Fair enough. So is SS2 just going to be a graphical update? They better not screw up the formula, which as Mercenary pointed out, was a great time in coop mode.Originally posted by: KnightBreed

They effectively pull those dates out of their asses. They are meaningless.Originally posted by: 00Jones
