Nexus- Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 great news that its gone gold but i think everyone forgot the little fack that The publisher can sit on the game for up to 6 moths after its gold get out your calanders kids. this means you can mark a "cant go past this day" on your calander and you can start the countdowns for 6 months from now.

Varsity Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Yesterday HL2 was sent to the BBFC for classification - an 'anonymous insider' said that this meant as far as VU were concerned the game was done. It's done but awaiting this last stage in the process to be made officially gold. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/231207-half-life-2-has-gone-gold/page/3/#findComment-584745422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dotdot Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Well Im gonna remain scepticle untill theres a release via steam or an announcement from Valve or VU direectly. As say this is is indeed Gold etc, you may not see it until they press like 1,000,000 disks so they have a shipment ready. Thus were probs in for a wee wait till mid November. But in the mean time lets keep everything crossed that its available via steam sooner than that :) *Colicab lies knotted in a heap on the floor, murmuring HL2 repeatedly Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/231207-half-life-2-has-gone-gold/page/3/#findComment-584745481 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dotdot Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Still doesnt mean were gonna see it yet. Im sorry but there could be um-teen reasons as to the game delaying till Mid november or something. This only tells us at most that the final CD`s/DVD`s are going to be pressed soon.
