HALO: Combat Evolved

[sapasion]

Walmart says they get it tomorrow?

[JustW]

I was browsing GoGamer, contemplating on whether or not to buy it, and it said it shipped the 23rd. So maybe they are releasing it a week early?

--edit--
Went to check, and it looks like they've changed their date to the projected 30th.

yeah it's the 30th...same date as half-life 2 (I'm hopeing)...I'm kinda looking forward to the multiplayer though...looks and sounds pretty interesting...

Pre-Order: Ships on 11/14/2003


Thats what EBGames claims.



UK RELEASE: 14-Nov-2003 | US RELEASE: 13-Nov-2003 | STATUS:


Thats what ToTheGame.com claims and they are VERY reliable. It hasnt even gone gold yet which would be impossible to release for a game like this in such short time. It would probably go gold at least 2 weeks before its release.

Logistics you guys...the games dont just magically appear wrapped and ready to ship in 5 seconds to be ready the 30th. After a game has gone gold you need at least 2-3 weeks to get everything MADE, shipped and packaged. More then likely they already start production long before they go gold anyway.

You have a better chance of being struck by a meteor the size of texas than having HL2 comming out the 30th.

[Mancora]

I believe going gold means they arent going to alter the code any more, so i would vneture to guess the games are almost always gold before they get produced.

[Kamakazie]

When a game goes gold, that means discs are sent off for duplication and shipping.

Amazon says that it is going to be released the on December 1, 2003. If you want to say it is based on no facts, I recommend you get your Canadian derrier down to Bellvue, Washington and ask Valve in person.

LOL thank you. Seriously we can go for hours on end saying "You have no proof" but look at things realistically, if everyone is saying it wont be here by the 30th chances are they arent going to magically make us shat our pants on the 30th when it suprisingly gets released.

Getting back on topic, I'm more excited for Halo to come out than Half LIfe 2.

Why? My rig won't play HL2 so I don't give a sh!t. Now Halo on the other hand is the most kicka$$ game for XBox, and even if I get 1fps, I'll still play it.

[PointlesS]

actually I'm kinda looking forward to it more after each interview I read...
