Might just be me but something doesn't seem right about the email, and the response is about as sketchy as a mime artist describing a robbery.
he is doing one of 2 things really,
confirming the thoughs that the title is delayed
confirming the rumour about its delay are untrue
and the fact he doesn't want to actually confirm either might be that they've staged an email to be released saying it'll be delayed got everyone all hyped about a delay and then actually go and release it on time.
must admit it would be very good PR if thats what they've done, and his answer gives them the leaway to do that.
... there's no work getting done here cause everyones now arguing about if its true or not, most of yesterday was actually talk about HL2 and if they'll actually meet the set date.
if they do it then really it'll be a first for such a hyped title, which is kinda what leads me to believe this is a publicity stunt
atleast it got everyone off the arugment about which is better the Tarus Sharman or the Night Elf Mage lol (i mean obviously its the mage
)
and considering steam is just a delivery system, i think i'll wait for HL2 as it should have it on CD - save me alot of time and bother. Not to mention i'm hearing alot of things about it scanning your hard-disk for files and sending the info back to valve, as the only game I've played online for like a year has been JK2 and hopefully when the new server is up JA - i'm happier without some huge spyware file on my system.
