Condition Zero Update

0
The folks at Valve have sent along a note for an update on Counter-Strike: Condition Zero which went gold recently for the US version. Here's what the deal is as of now straight from Jess Cliffe at Valve:

I've been getting questions about the release of Condition Zero, and wanted to put out an update. We're done with development on the English version and have submitted a replication master to Sierra for manufacturing. Right now, we're doing some additional work on the foreign versions and are hoping to have those wrapped up and submitted to Sierra this week. Sierra has not confirmed retail release dates for the product but we're hopeful it will be available shortly.

On the Xbox front, Microsoft has released Counter-Strike for the Xbox in North America and it is in stores. It will be shipping in all other territories in the coming days. CSX is getting strong reviews (e.g, "This is the shooter / combat title of the holiday season"), and we've already surpassed our initial load-in forcast on the game.

As stated in this story, the expected shelf date was actually yesterday which is why we have this update.
