The day before Valve starts pre-loading Half-Life 2 assets onto its Steam network, it appears the publisher may have made an embarrassing mistake. Several Web sites--most prominently HL2World.com--have reported that Valve accidentally released a file containing all of the dialogue from Half-Life 2 when it distributed the Counter-Strike: Source beta to Cyber cafés last week.

According to reports, the dialogue is embedded in a .gcf file sent out along with beta. Apparently, it was included for closed-captioning purposes, and was overlooked because .gcf files aren’t meant to be opened. Obviously, it was not meant for public eyes and contains numerous spoilers about the game, including its (surprising) ending.

However, despite reports, the Half-Life 2 dialogue leak is officially unconfirmed. Valve did not respond to requests for comment as of press time, and has not made any announcements regarding the alleged leak.

expect a 2 year delay.

 

[deadhorse32]

They did it on purpose so they can delay the game a few more months to change the "Surprise" ending (and finish the game ...).

 

[Mrbob]

This isn't a big deal. Just don't read the script before you play the game.

I wasn't planning to get the game, and this just confirmed my thinking.

Holy tired jokes, Batman.

Hey did I mention the ending blows and I won't be playing the single player portion

 

[Che]

Are you stupid, how could you like that? I could explain this to you but you obviously haven't played the first game.

 

[teepo]

[Eric-GCA]

Is it just me or is Valve one of the most inept developers in regards to handling their own property?

Of course, its not inept if they do it on purpose to justify more delays.

Valve raped my childhood! This is the biggest slap in the face I ever got since my exgf's last summer's fuckfest!

With all the screenshots floating around, I don't want to spoil the experience.
