Now they're saying HL2 is a "holiday 2003" title.  I hope that's just Vivendi passing gas.

I haven't included Q3. Only ones which have single player mode, has a story etc.

Q3 single player is the same as it would be in Multiplayer, just not with or against human players, against bots.

Otherwise fighting against Xaero on Nightmare or Hardcore is not hard .... it's impossible

I know what a sensitive topic FS3 is, I was just kidding. No harm intended....but seriously, when is it comming out?:lol: :lol:

Anyways, about the HalfLife 2 delay. I don't believe it until I hear it from Valve. Just yesterday, answering a forum Q and A, Gabe Newell (Valve prez) said that he has heard nothing about the delays.

You can find the whole thing on either Bluesnews (check the comments section for the HL2 delay topic) or on Shacknews.

I have a bot that's even harder than Xaero, if you're a glutton for punishment.

What kind of punishment? Being dead? :)
Which is that bot?

I'm the apparent heretic here, since I've not even played the original Half-Life, so I'm not hardly as worked up about its sequel as everyone else.

So, for me, Homeworld 2 is the chief attraction, followed by Deus Ex 2.

Homeworld 2, simply because it's supposed to have good mod support this time around...

Deus Ex 2, because I want to find out what happened to me :p

and your reasoning for that is? i would really like to know how a game that sucked sold WAY over a million copies and got the "Game of The Year" for best game....

you probably suck at it or you don't own a Xbox...

Or both. I loved Halo and it's still my multiplayer game of choice. I've heard people talk about how unbalanced the game is when you have tanks in multi but that's bollocks too because that game is finely tuned. Circle strafe a tank in a ghost while constantly firing and the plasma rounds slow the turret movement which unless they get out the tank pretty quick equals an easy kill. I've heard people say the game sucks when they've played maybe a third of a level on easy. To get the most out of it you have to play it all the way through on legendary because it's incredible. Each battle is unique and so brilliantly fun, there really isn't anything quite like it.

I'll admit it, I'm a Bungie/Halo fanboy but I don't really care. :)
