Half Life 2 (XBOX)

I pre-ordered this title on the date February 19th 2003 (Day after my birthday, Same day I pre-ordered Halo 2).. and I checked today to see what Amazon were saying the release date was...

This is the message about release date:

"This item will be released on November 18, 2005. You may order it now and we will dispatch it to you when we receive it from our supplier. Please note that release dates are subject to change."

droolio, I'm going to double check to see if this is true... if it is... that's 2 years

I'm getting it.

Did an IGN search... and it checks out, 15th November (America)

13 days!

England, we get everything later, and at a higher cost (respectively).... it's a *****.

Nyah.

You pre-ordered it 2 years ago?! 😱

Dammmn! I would have forgotton about it by now. 😛

That's over two and a half years ago, actually 😛

It was a hell of a long time ago... I remembered because I was playing on the PC version not too long ago... and suddenly remembering that I had.

Played HL2 at Future Shop on PC, for an hour. It was wonderful, the interactivity amazed me.

Get it on pc not xbox

i dont think he was implying that everyone should go off and pay however much for HL2 to run properly on a comp.

HL2 for Xbox looks really downgraded and almost crappy compared to PC version

No, he wasn't implying that. However, for me to play it on PC, I do have to spend about $500 worth of upgrades.

Yes, it does look slightly downgraded on console, but it runs great and the gameplay(Which i feel is the most important thing about the game) has not changed in the slightest. Which is why I am buying it for the Xbox.

Bumping because I'm playing this. Rather drool-tastic so far, though I'm generally not a fan of shooters. The cinematic nature of it makes it stand out, since the puzzles are nothing new and the "shooting" is very good, but generally not my bag.

Wait till you get to Episode 2. Takes the whole idea of cinematic and immersive gaming to a new level, I felt.

Ahhh.....I would feel kinda of bad if I ever played an Half Life game on a console.

I really would.
