Vivendi pushes back release, but still pledges before holidays

Bad news for video gamers with itchy trigger fingers: alien-hunting season has been delayed. Vivendi Universal Games said Friday that the developers of ?Half-Life 2,? the most heavily anticipated video game of 2003, will not release the game on Tuesday as originally planned.

SPOKESWOMAN for VUG, a unit of Vivendi Universal said developer Valve Software issued a statement on Tuesday saying the game would not make Sept. 30 but was still targeted for an unspecified holiday release.

As of Friday afternoon, online retailer Amazon.com showed the game being released Dec. 1, while EBGames.com showed it shipping Nov. 14, and GameStop.com showed it being released Feb. 2 of next year.
