Valve sent an RC to Vivendi (http://www.hl2fallout.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6610&st=0)

Whether it gets rejected or not, who knows...

RC = Release Candidate, Vivendi (the publisher) reviews and tests the RC and if everything is good then the game goes gold and you can buy Half Life 2 about 2 weeks after it goes gold. Going Gold means Valve got a copy of the gold master disks that also got sent to manufacturing. The RC isnt always perfect but it means that the game is essentially done. Just bug fixes now, if the RC isnt approved Vivendi will tell Valve why and the bugs will be fixed and you will have your HL2 soon enough.

Watch something absurd happen, like the vehicle delivering the master disks explodes or gets hijacked.

Well, we were delivering the RC, and hell itself opened up under the car, and satan crawled out, and started ninja fighting with Jesus and during the divine battle, someone ran up and stole the disks. Sry. :(

:lol: seriously. This game is doomed to fail. Its already been stolen, and gone fake gold.

I still have my April 2003 issue of PC Gamer that says "Comes out 6 months before Doom 3, and years before DNF".

I would expect the disks to fall under a severe HADOOOOOOKEN attack.

i think Valve is going to get bombed while the diskcs are in transit, and uppon hearing the news the car will crash and the disks will be melted by the burning wreck

I think that the delivery guy is going to be carrying the disks to their destination and trip and drop them down a sewer grate where they'll land in a puddle of toxic ooze that turns all the disks into Teenage Mutant Ninja Data Storage Devices!

When HL2 is released, the world will end. Just look at everything fate has tried to do to stop this game from coming out!
