Half-Life 2 Release Date is Very Short

Pffft. After that WON incident I would have to be extremely stupid to buy their game still. Thank god Doom3 is on the way.

Well, the good thing about Steam is that Valve can rollout their games just about any time they finish a project, which makes it easily available to gamers. The way I see it Valve dosen't really need to bundle Half-Life 2 with CS: Source, if HL2 is *finished* already indeed, then I would think they would release it via Steam soon. Then whenever CS: Source is finished, they could release it via Steam as well. They don't really need to release it in a retail HL2 box. All they have to do is write on the box and in the manual 'Get CS: Source for free by visiting SteamPowered.com'
