I'm shocked! Shocked! Well, not that shocked.

I've no problem waiting, one thing about Valve, they don't do shovelware. If they need extra time to make sure the game is as good as it possibly can be then thats fine with me. It's just a pity that more gaming companies are not as committed to quality as these boys.

Didn't even know the old release date, so now I've got April to look forward to!

Well, at least you know that time will be well spent tweaking the game. Valve are one of the last companies that make sure their end product is as good as can be on release.

Next year is shaping up good for games, Portal 2, Duke Nukem, Crysis 2, Deus Ex Revolution...........possibly HL: Episode 3 (at least this time next year)

If Valve announced that they needed the blood of a dozen virgins to make sure Portal 2 was perfect when it was released then I would probably forgive them.

Let's just be thankful that all they need is a little more time.

eddhorse · 19-11-2010, 22:35

True, id prefer them to take their time rather than release it and have to patch it ! Co-op portalisms whoo baby !!!

Magill · 20-11-2010, 00:26

Am i the only one thats not that excited about portal 2 ? the first one was good no doubt but it wasn't a game that lasted longer than a few days for me. I wished valve would just get a move on and get episode 3 done... or even better.. get cracking on half life 3 !! Its been nearly 6 years since half life 2 !!!

Portal and l4d can go **** ! Gimmi a new half life game and engine along with the countless goodies that come with it in terms of mods and **** !
