Well, for both games sake, I hope their release dates are far enough apart that they don't compete directly with one another - kinda like two big blockbuster movies...Quote:

I wouldn't doubt the possibility that Doom3 ships first.... :(
I'm not knocking Doom3 (I think it'll be really good), but I think HL2 will be more fun overall. I just don't like to crap in my jockeys, and I think Doom 3 will make me do just that...
I may have to play in diapers... :p

This should not effect the SP version, if not why don`t they go ahead and ship it, then I can already be playing it(I don`t play online games). I just bought a new video card and I want to be playing it now ;)Quote:

But they're not going to ship each version at different times...Quote:

I dont understand why people become so suprised when they hear that a games gets delayed. Its a business strategy to do this, they fell to get people more anticipated for the game.
And for the Source Code leak , i believe its another busness strategy/publicity stunt, especially how they put it on the msnbc news, like there is a big percentage in the world that cares about that game or even know what source code is. and why in the world would they have ther computers with the halfife 2 source content in them connected to the internet anyway? they hould have a line of computers for the internet and another line for their software. sound bizarre to me.
If the April 2004 date becomes "official", then I think it would be in Valve's interest to so. I would be quite happy to play the SP missions before Christmas, and download the MP patch in the Spring. I think that would raise Valve's image amoung the fans.Quote:

If it don`t come out until april, don`t that mean, they broke their bundled game contract with ATI.
Not really...they sold the bundle rights, but I don't know of them giving a specific date upon which the bundle would start. I've also heard that now the card comes with a voucher to recieve the game at a later date.
