Gabe Newell of Valve, <a href="http://www.hl2fallout.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=295&hl=“>has spilled the beans</a> on what languages Half-Life 2 will ship in.
The initial languages which should all sim-ship are
English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Thai
It should be known that not all of these languages will have the speech translated, but the text should be translated upon shipping.
Gabe also made note of some other bits of Half-Life 2 information.
» Gabe sticks with august release date.
» Game translation will be full (Voices + texts)
» Game size is about <b>3.5 Gb</b> and 2 gb compressed.
» <i>The German version will be censured (Robots instead of humans, oil instead of blood. This due to certain German law restrictions</i>.)
» HL2 story line is inspired by Stephen King book ”the Myst“
