IIRC, he didn't get sent it early, he got into Valve's servers and snagged it.
The kicker, and this is the part I always remember: he guessed Gabe Newell's password. It was gaben, same as his user name, same as his name name.
Wow, stars really are just like us.
I feel like the fact he worked for Microsoft before starting Valve adds a whole new layer to the story, too.
That’s the source code leak. The leaked announcement came from the magazine.
Ah, right. Got my wires crossed I guess.
You might be mixing up the first we knew about hl2 with the time the entire source code for the game was leaked early.
