Gabe Newell, CEO of Valve Software, has confirmed pre-load dates for the upcoming Counter-Strike: Source beta. Along with this he has also confirmed the date that Half-Life 2 will start pre-loading through Steam!
Here's the full post:
Just got out of a review meeting. 8/11 the Cafe's turn on (tomorrow). 8/16 CZ/ATI users pre-load. 8/18 CZ/ATI turns on. 8/17 HL-2 pre-load starts (textures, audio and other stuff that doesn't change).
This is very exciting news, not only are most of us merely a week away from playing Counter-Strike: Source, but we're also a very short time away from Half-Life 2 actually shipping if Gabe's statement about the Half-Life 2 pre-load is true.
