I love the way gabe talks just image everything in his voice LOL
[QUOTE=Patcher;22436501]What's your point? If Gabe says "no" It really means "no", it has been proven since his Email became available.[/QUOTE]
Do you expect him to say "yes"?
[QUOTE=Dr Bob;22436920]Do you expect him to say "yes"?[/QUOTE]
He would just ignored the emails. I know it sounds fishy and you want to believe. But don't get your hopes up for Ep3.
It's fake, but fingers crossed...

For those [i]still[/i] thinking that the surprise is going to be Episode 3.
Remember when Half Life 2 was shown at E3? What did Valve do before they demoed gameplay elements? They toured the audience through the new Source engine.
The engine has come a long way since then, and undoubtedly has undergone a major overhaul for Portal 2, to bring it up to today's standards in graphics. Has anyone considered the thought that Valve could demo this new version of the Source engine at E3, before showing off the wonders of Portal 2?
This dude over my post is the best new poster ever.
You're at the top of the page. :v:
Also, Episode 3 has already been announced, I don't know where you guys have all been. It just hasn't been "announced" announced, as in, we all know it's being made and the heads at Valve know we know, they're just not saying it yet.

Source was something incredible back then, something that no one ever saw. I really doubt they changed the physics so much, and the graphics part.. I don't that Portal 2 looks better than MW2 or BC2. They have nothing about the engine to make us Wow.
I'll agree that I don't see Portal 2 looking hyper realistic — Valve couldn't demo a new Source engine on looks alone. But this doesn't discount the possibility of an improved (and more easily accessible) cinematic physics system, or an overhaul on how the engine handles objects going through Portals (as expected with new puzzle elements).
Aside to this, Valve has also always encouraged the modding community, and I could see them rolling out more refined SDK tools for the updated engine. More of a demo for the designer side. Call me optimistic though, that one's just a passing thought.
ep3ep3ep3ep3!! please!

We can be sure in one thing: It's only 7 days left and it will be something awesome :smile:

MW2 doesn't looks that good. And knowing Valve, they could make a really nice engine.
And you better burn Hammer if you make a new engine Valve, I dare you.

They already [I]did[/I] demo a new engine. The Left 4 Dead engine is an improvement on the Orange Box engine with new graphical capabilities and filtering modes. Physics are improved as well but L4D doesn't really show it off.
...Well hey, what's another demo! (My bad, rate me clocks)
It can only be improved either way. :v:
You can't say people are dumb just because they think its EP3. Thats called "belief". They believe EP3 is coming.

Yeah honestly that doesn't prove anything it just proves that valve demo the source engine that they were using for hl2, and then showed some of ravenholm. I don't get what your point is.
I don't really believe the email. Either a fake, or he's messing with people. I don't think Valve would be that big of a dick.

Which email of all?
I'm going to go with Portal 2 and Ep3 engine showcase.
(Telling them what Ep3 will include)
[QUOTE=TheCactusman;22422262]I got a reply from Gabe.

That is the full screen thing I won't post as an image here because it seems a bit big. But I will post a kind of zoomed one.

Actually, I'd say this is proof of it being neither. You asked if he'd confirm if it's either of the two, and I doubt Gabe would pass up a chance to reply with a simple "Yes." Therefore, it's neither.
The email was in no way ,shape or form a fake. Please ignore the circle in the image below.

I blanked out the website name because I don't want anyone to know what the website is. If you knew, you would use the website to make your own fake emails. I will not give out the website.
