HL2 Aftermath slips to Feb/March 2006

According to an email sent by Valve director of marketing Doug Lombardi to Half-Life 2 fan site halflife2.net, HL2: Aftermath will miss its November release window.
Instead, the highly anticipated expansion will be delayed until February–March of 2006, for now. Fans hoping for a new fix this holiday season will have to look elsewhere.

In related news, the Xbox release of the original Half-Life 2 port is still scheduled for next week.
