You just made my Facepunch life so much easier. Thank you.
3nonetwo, you have officially won the thread.
3nonetwo oh lawd
:golfclap: wonderful post.
It's quite brilliant of a fake though, they even made 7 squares under the image (there are 6 now)
E3 + p (from Portal) = Ep3
It must be coming!

• "HALF-LIFE²" - Kerning on characters
• An ever-so-slightly longer "H"
• The "²" is LARGER for [i]Episode Three[/i] than it is for [i]Episode Two[/i]
• [i]Episode Two[/i]'s lines can be contained within a boxed boundary, whereas [i]Episode Three[/i]'s lines breach that boundary.

The typeface is so painfully obviously different. Look at the "O", and the thickness of the typeface. I'm also certain Valve doesn't use [i]Century Gothic[/i].
It's worth nothing that the photo's example uses a more suitable typeface.
If you're one of the people who swear on their mother's impending grave that the typeface is exactly the same, see this graphic:
[img]http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/6541/halflife2fake3.gif[/img]
• The middle line in "E" extends out to the edge
• The tail ends of "S" curve up, capped with _¯ lines, rather than ,’
• The "O" fills a perfect circle
• The "D" is slimmer, and wider
[b]And a question to ponder:[/b]
If the user could see the "Episode Three" graphic, [i]why didn't they follow the link for more information[/i]?
If you still believe that the photo/screenshot is real, you deserve an entire factory of boxes.[/QUOTE]
Kudos to you, sir.

There is no such thing as to much time.

just because the images are fake doesn't mean it's not happening
rate me gay
How great would this be?
A video comes on, we're in a dark room. A few sparks come from the ceiling. GLaDOS' voice can be heard saying "Thank you for your patience. Aperture Science has prepared this special presentation for replacement of our convention absence. We hope you enjoy the surprise. Deploying the surprise in 3...2...That was not supposed to happen."
A crowbar smashes into the screen, with the crowbar and the glass cracks forming the lambda symbol. A release date/month is shown under it, and it hits black.
With or without ep3, E3 will still be fun as hell.
But the "surprise" is the only reason why I can't wait for E3.
But I like it, feels kinda like waiting for Christmas as a kid.
You barely get that feeling ever as an adult.
Gabe said it isn't Episode 3....
I bet it's Half Life 3, instead.

The episodes are HL3. Its been stated many times.

A crowbar falls from the ceiling, hits the ground, and some actor dressed as Gordon Freeman comes and picks it up. That would be the shit.
looky what i did

also, i will go apeshit if nothing about EP3 is announced at E3

Yeah, I know they've said that but... they're really not. You know after all the episodes, they're going to make a Half-Life 3. They wouldn't just confuse the piss out of everyone by making a Half-Life 4.

Rate me late, but this is undisputable proof that the EP3 pic is fake.
