They could compete with their graphics engines, if they manage to develop new ones. Half Life 2 had extroadinary graphics even though it was released in 2004. Yes, maybe a new game engine, perhaps?
I'm sure what ever they come up with, It will be awesome, even if some people get all spoiled and try and boycott it, even though they know valve is going to carry on and release it anyway...
edit: ^ yes that would be awesome

Oh, shit. Valve Civil War.

Never played Spore >_>
I'm hoping for some fantasy like game (think orcs) or some game based in the distant future
[QUOTE=xpod1;16451317]DoD: 1943
CS:S: 2001
HL2: 2010
TF2: 1958
L4D: Alt. Universe in which the Rabies virus evolved and cause a massive outbreak in 2008, considering the death messages on the church wall.
They all take place at different times, and are not connected in any truly notable way. Except for Portal and HL2; That's just obvious.[/QUOTE]
Fixed the times.
left 4 dead 2 ep1
[QUOTE=tieto;16461074]left 4 dead 2 ep1[/QUOTE]
No.
[QUOTE=Yobdren;16461071]Fixed the times.[/QUOTE]
Dod, yeah.
For HL, not really. HL1 supposedly took place on May 5, 2001; the day of a major planetary Alignment. And Gordon was put into Stasis for about 20 years. So HL2 takes place in around 2021.
I quit giving a shit about TF2 time when the DR was used.
[QUOTE=Sie-Sveinhund;16446760]...Valve says that the episodics [b]ARE[/b] Half Life 3.
[editline]07:31PM[/editline]
TF2, yeah, but CS:S could be set before HL1, even. Same with DoD.[/QUOTE]
Not anymore, they aren't Half-Life 3 anymore.
[QUOTE=Yobdren;16461071]Fixed the times.[/QUOTE]
No, you broke them.

Left 4 Dead takes place in 1987
Half-Life 3.

Yes they are.

[QUOTE=attasbank;16466752]Half-Life 3.[/QUOTE]
Episodes 1 2 3 are HL3.
What? Vavle isn't making Episode 3 or Left 4 Dead, you're thinking of Valve.
[QUOTE=Yobdren;16461071]Fixed the times.[/QUOTE]
No its 19[b]6[/b]8.
They'll make a Prospero MMO on the Wii. I just know it.
People need to shut the fuck up about whether the episodes are Half-Life 3 or whatever. As soon as someone comes in a thread saying "but the episodes ARE half-life 3 :D" the thread is instantly derailed forever.
[QUOTE=bobste;16389317]something like dark messiah i hope[/QUOTE]
While that would be awesome, Dark Messiah wasn't Valve.

And anyway, they said that although Ep 3 would be the last episode, it wouldn't be the last Half Life based game.
[QUOTE=Billiam;16397239]That'll take years :([/QUOTE]
yeah I agree. the Source engine was a Modded version of another engine. and it took them HOW LONG to mod it? so obviously making a new engine for Valve is gonna take as long as the next Team Fortress to be released.

Source is modded Goldsrc, which is based off quake, it took about 8 years to make source.
I think a HL game/series that is based around the actions an exploits of a particular rebel instead of Gordon would be kind of cool, you could have it be more "tactical", with you having far less health than in the previous games, and maybe in an entirely different city, different weapons, etc. but same HL universe.
Continuing the series, but with a different gameplay style and character, kind of like what Bungie is doing with Halo: ODST.
Valve should stop making games before they over do it and become shit.
[QUOTE=bobste;16389317]something like dark messiah i hope[/QUOTE]
VALVe didn't make that, it's just on the Source engine.
Whoops, I got ninja'd. :ninja:

That would be my fault. I will not take the blame though :P

Maybe, although I heard that once Valve is done with EP3, they're going to port everything over to the Wii. Including TF2 (with updates). Then they start working on the next game.
[QUOTE=Yobdren;16462824]Left 4 Dead takes place in 1987[/QUOTE]

Not to mention the wall writings that have 2009 written on them (Last Stand).
well it'll probably be something with shepard from opposing force.

Highly unlikely, since OF wasn't canon, and the fact my friend is making a highly successful OF2 mod.
