Uh, NO.
Uh, NO, again. It ain't gonna be out until it's done. Go wait for an official release date from Valve's producers before claiming stuff like this.
Now, on another tack, I am definitely looking forward to this and I can't wait until it gets here. I just won't pre-order until the release is in sight. There was the big hubbub that they were going to release it last year, Sept 30, 2003, and there's this big "internet theft" of their source code. Now, whether I believe this theft to be true or not, Valve isn't announcing any specific details behind the theft and what exactly was stolen. Since they're being hush hush, I have a hard time believing it was anything more than just a convenient excuse that the gamers would swallow because of the desperation that the game has to be the absolute best game of all time.
