HL2: Episode Two hit by new delay

PC News | Valve man confirms.
Half-Life 2: Episode Two's release date has once again been put back, according to Valve marketing man Doug Lombardi. Lombardi revealed the slippage to CVG, and confirmed that the game would now be released during the summer months of 2007 (or winter, if you're in the Southern hemisphere).

In an interview last August, Lombardi announced that Valve was hoping to get the game on shop shelves by "Q1 2007". Sadly, the latest postponement means that the game - along with Team Fortress 2 and Portal, both titles which will occupy the same disc as Half-Life 2: Episode Two - is going to miss that target by some way.

Hence, you may like to fill the time between now and next summer/winter/whatever by reading both our Half-Life 2 review here (though it's the Xbox version - sadly, our PC coverage began too late for us to cover the PC release) and our Episode One review here and making yourself even more depressed. Enjoy.
