Yeah. Until either Oct 12 (according to the guy at EB when I pre-ordered one) or November 14 (according to EB's website right now).

Just checked, and according to official word from Valve (as of yesterday), it's being planned for a "holiday release". They've got no exact date yet.

I'm not surprised, though.

Well at least we know it's real and they're not going to pull a TF2 on us.

I realized just now how utterly retarded Soul Calibur 2 for PS2 is. I mean, fuck. The super-special-awesome-cool-PS2-exclusive-crazy-great character in this FIGHTER game is from a FIGHTER game! What the fuck?!? That's real exciting, isn't it? Ooh, I've never faught with Heihachi before... I mean, sure I've played with him in all the Tekken games. But I've never used him in THIS type of game before...

Using Link in a fighting game is cool. Really cool. Hell, even using Spawn is cool. But using a character from another fighter game was just stupid. It would have been a lot better if they'd used a different PS2-original character. Like Solid Snake. That would be awesome.

Honestly, if the PS2 version had a better special character, I'd buy it in a second. But the way it is, I'm too pissed off.

Everyone's been complaining about him.

They should have put Tidus, or Sephiroth, or somebody else in.

Anybody else would have been better, really.

Actually for Half-Life 2, don't be too sure about the Octover 12th date either Vavle just changed its stance to "targeting the holiday season."

Yeah, I just posted that above.

Halo PC Tuesday. :drool:

At least one of Tuesday's games is coming out on time. :roll:

Eh.. I'm probably not going to buy Halo. I'll give it a try one someone else's PC, though.

Jeebus knows my PC can't handle it.

By the way, does anyone here read PC Gamer?

I pick it up every now and then.

I really should get a subscription. The only reason I don't read it much is because I have to go to shoppers to get it. :lol:

The Macs down the street from my school carries it. I just pick one up on the way home.

It is hitting my local EB on November 14th, for sure.

You all know to what I am referring.

No need for proper nouns.

:drool:

It had damn well better.

Even though I'll only be buying it to pet the box and sleep with it at night until I get a PC that can run it half-decent.

If I brought the cd within viewing distance of my computer, it would burst into flames and explode, in that order.
