You gotta be fucking kidding! The same day as HL2? Well, it'll probably be on the 19th, a friday, here in the UK, which is for the better as I won't be crushed under an avalanche of A+++ games.

Congratulations Mr Z! You're so fucking Lestat!

RAWKZ0R! Must also be quite special to finish your first game

But yeah, it is quite amazing that a pretty immature community could grow into a source of so much industry talent that it is today, and I doubt that it'll stop here

Anyway, /me flipflops away

HIGH FIVE!!

now give us free copies of your game. pleeeeease.

im not one to question your marketing department or anything....but how wise is it to release this game so close to the dates of well known amazing games such as halo 2, gta:sa, hl2....i mean....people like buying games....but most people dont have $150 to drop on games in a couple of weeks

why not release the game during a dry spell like a few months ago...or before doom 3

Valve have stated that contractually Bloodlines can't be released before HL2. Thus the (infinitely small) difference between their release dates.

There's no better feeling than being able walk into a Best Buy or something and see YOUR game right there on the shelf. Shipping a game is probably one of the greatest feelings of accomplishment I've ever had.

Wow, I sure wish I didnt suck at everything

Congrats Zaphod, your story is touching.

I cant wait to play

Congratulations Zaphod! I think you did a good job with Bloodlines, I will definately give it a shot (even although I'm not so much into RPG)!

/me hums the international MapCore anthem

I think the choice to release it now is kinda stupid as well, mid december wud've been alot better imo, after all the big titles have died out (sa will never die out tho!)

im still buying it..i dont care to fork out for hl2 and bloodlines..i dont have a ps2, so im waiting for the SA pc port...

I'll buy it for sure. I am happy for you mr. beeblebrox, oh how this community has changed.. and not.

I am sure it will be a wonderful gaming experience.

I would have released it later too, but publishers think differently.

a) They got a finished game they put lots of money into and want to make profit of it asap

b) Bloodlines is an RPG and has a different target group than HL2, Halo2, SA (besides that halo2 and SA are console titles for now).
