HL2: E2, Portal, and TF2 delayed

Allow this writer to turn fan-boy for a moment. Why must we wait more! Screw Freeman. We want Alyx Vance and her “dog!” Here’s the sad news folks: Valve’s new instalment of Freeman’s Alyx Vance’s game is now due summer 2007. Fan-boy mode off.

CVG reports that Valve’s Doug Lombardi has announced that Half-Life 2: Episode Two’s release has been reset from Q1 2007 to summer 2007. Lombardi says that Valve is “now targeting summer 2007” for a release. This obviously affects Team Fortress 2 and Portal, which all form the Episode Two package.

Instead of something to welcome the new year, we now have something for the summer. Oh well. They just better use the time to polish those games up.

HL2 Episode 2 was originally expected to hit at the end of 2006, with Valve confirming back in August it had changed its mind and was instead gunning for Q1 2007, maybe February. No official reason has been given yet as to the reason for the release slip, but we’re all hoping it’s a good one.
