jasondefaoite Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 so the release date is the Sept 22? No, have a closer look. This is an ad for their next months magazine, and the mag is on sale 22nd Sept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japlabot Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Shouldn't it be "It's done!" not "Its done!" ? :p It should, but it's all caps so I don't think it matters anyway. All part of the font. The Ad doesn't seem fake, but I don't think they would announce it's finish in a magazine first, and it would take weeks to get the Ad in. Maybe they just expected it to be done before the Mag was put out or the publishers jumped the gun in putting it in. Or it's a September issue (when it's still August) or something.

Steve Lampkins Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 "It's done", means just that. It is done does not equate to it is being released yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrigamer Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 It being declared done also points to going gold very soon I'd think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kairon Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 heh, what are you tring to say?pc powerplay is a well known magazine that has a large fan base in au and nz and im sure also in many other parts of the world. i am trying to say valve is in the US and I highly doubt this aussie magazine knows something that US journalists don't seeing as how like I said, Valve is a US company. and since they are the only ones to say its done, thats another red flag. they probably guessed or figured by the time the mag is out it would be done. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chode Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I'm an impartial nemesis of Valve software, and I can confirm this. PC Powerplay Australia #104 (just hit newsagents here today) That "photoshop" of Wolverine is just Amos Hong, the producer of the cover CD's and "DiscGod" on the forums. That page details what's on the CD/DVD, and there is always a photoshop of him on it (remind me one day to dig up his face on britney spears' body....quite disturbing). The "photos" of Alyx are actually part of an unrelated article, instead discussing the idea of a realistic video game character (details a little bit of Valve's face poser software) Anyway, a quick photo of the page in question.

Varsity Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Probably a hopeful guess based on the pre-load. They're probably crossing their fingers for gold before the next issue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
