its not being released because its being released with portal, episode 2 and the new team fortress......
they are still working on portal and the new team fortress.....so no half life 2
and your right....half life multiplayer isnt all that great...but the singleplayer is WOW
thats the way the cookie crumbles....
and they wont release backwards compatibility with half life 2 on 360 because the portal package will also include half life 2 in HD with enhancements.....half life episode 1 and 2.....and portal..along with the new team fortress....and there will be variations of the packages in the form of Orange or Black.......

January 16, 2007 - Since being revealed last year, fans have been eager to get a hold of Valve's Half-Life 2: Episode Two, which includes the games Portal and Team Fortress 2. When gamers race to the store in late summer for Episode Two, they'll be faced with two choices. Both Black Box and Orange Box editions will be made available, each with slightly different content.
The Black Box is only available on PC and includes Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Portal and Team Fortress 2. It retails for $39.99.
The Orange Box is available for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 and includes Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2: Episodes One and Two, Portal and Team Fortress. It retails for a modest $59.99.
In other words, The Black Box edition is for PC gamers who already have Half-Life 2 and it's first Episode. The Orange Box is meant for everyone else, so that they can experience the full breadth of the Half-Life 2 saga.
