For those around the world who will be staying up to play, I suggest we organise an HL2 Release Party! Grab a channel on Venty and get started playing the game, maybe the next best thing to co-op mode For me, it'll be 9 PM Tuesday.

I'll be there. Just hope I get my HEV suit back from the drycleaners in time. It's a bitch to get those bullsquid stains out!

You heard the release date has been pushed back again hadn't you?

teehee... just trying to scare you.

Bastard

I don't think they'd DARE push the release date back again, the Valve offices would be burned to the ground, the occupants lynched!

Don't forget to finish your preload ahead of time... god knows there'll probably be an update to grab before we can actually play the game

I would rather they pushed it back again - so that the product was good, rather than releasing ANOTHER crap product.

Well they've had an extra 13 months of work added to their original project plan... I hope they've ironed out all the bugs in that time.
