With all of this talk over the past week of the Half Life 2 source code being stolen from Valve and the rumored delays that follow, DiscGamer tries to make sense of it all.

"When something like this happens, the conspiracy theorists rear their ugly heads and start spreading rumors. I?m not one to buy into these most of the time, but they tend to make some good points at times, so I thought it would be interesting to take all of the facts we know so far, combine them with some of the unofficial reports, and see if this could add up to a bona fide hoax."
