Unless you've heard something new in the past month or two, the release date is still around the beginning of October.

It's still early/mid October I think...

Remember it's coming as a package with HL2/EP1/Portal and TF2.

Ill buy ep2 on steam whenever they decide to release 4 hours of content on already existing engine with already existing story. It's ridiculous they could have made a brand new half life 3 instead of making us wait years for episodic content.

I don't care how many games they throw in with in it, its becoming really annoying.

Yay! And when EP3 comes out they'll come up with the "Brown Box" which includes all that + EP3... It would prolly be just easier to ignore the episodes untill they are all out and then just buy some megapack with all HL1, HL2, EP1-3, CS:S etc. in one massive box...

I fail to see your point, the box is coming with more content then most games out there.. Not to mention they will have the regular episode 2, tf2 and portal package at steam for dirt cheap.. Its not like HL2 is SOMEhow the only game on the market :roll: if you want a brand new game that talk years to devolpe Crysis is your answer..

Honestly people need to stop complaining.. If they were doing that way, I would garentee there would be numerous people complaining about how long its taking JUST like when HL2 was released..

That was my original plan...but then they had to throw in TF2 which I have been obsessing over for the last 7 years.

I think your calculations are bad. There were 6 years between Half-Life (1998 ) and Half-Life 2 (2004) for maybe 8 hours of game play. Half-Life 2: Espisode 1 (2006) was a 2 year wait for 4 hours of game play. If we get Episode 2 this year and it has 4 more hours of gameplay (they are claiming its actually longer) we still come out way ahead.

Full game 8/6 (hours of game/years of wait)

Episodes 8/3 (hours of game/years of wait)

Which doesn't even take into account Portal and Team Fortress 2.

the original half life 2 was more like 15 hours btw, and the epidsodes are just are slightly prettier versions of half life 2(which came out in 2004).
