Slashdot | Half Life 2 Available, Delays Not Valve's Fault

Slashdot | Half Life 2 Available, Delays Not Valve's Fault: "This is not Valve's choice. Vivendi is insisting that the game has not yet been released, and has threatened that Valve would be in violation of its contract if we activate the Half-Life 2 Steam authentication servers at this time."
Funny that Pinko didn't mention this.
