Does anyone have Red-Cyan glasses to look at these images?

[QUOTE=Jonii;33666374]Does anyone have Red-Cyan glasses to look at these images?[/QUOTE] I tried, just makes smudgy images. I can't tell what they are. Edit: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/42169829/eiw52.jpg[/img] The circled area looks like the 3 from the 300 logo. Other than that, it look like they just took the burn tool, doodled, and smudged it.

There is nothing. Gabe said there would be nothing, and there was nothing. [img]http://s3.amazonaws.com/kym-assets/photos/images/newsfeed/000/133/668/68.gif?1318992465[/img]

When I get up tomorrow, there's going to be 50+ posts arguing that the red and cyan pictures may just be Half Life (3/Episode 3) related. Anyway, the darker part of the pictures DO sort of look like the front of the adviser mask. :smile: But what if this becomes another HUGE ass ARG, what if CS:GO and DOTA 2 have things inside, what if!!! :tinfoil: Too early. If anyone says VALVe won't do another ARG, see how well the Portal 2 one did; the indie developers got a lot of sales and publicity. I do feel something coming soon thought, and it is going to be big...

Just wondering, did anyone else catch the "just In case I don't win"? What would of happened if Portal had won? If Portal lost (which it did), Wheatley wanted something to get him, but if it had won, then what? In the beginning, he mentioned some sort of prize. Just a small thought, nothing to dig into.

This is just silly, stop it right now.

Guys, look at the first [b]three[/b] letters of my country, [b]arg[/b]entina, I think I'm on to something...

You're all grasping at straws. These are just Spike's transition images. [img]http://i.imgur.com/i4CTr.gif[/img] graspingatstraws1.gif [img]http://i.imgur.com/ibxUw.gif[/img] graspingatstraws2.gif But, fun fact: you do not need anaglyph glasses to see the Red and Blue channels of the image.

He would never say "YEP, YOU'LL BE SEEING SOMETHING HALF LIFE RELATED AT THE VGAs!" in an email to a random person. But that video of Wheatley is very interesting, much analysis will be had.

You must check all birth records at the ARG Birth Ward in every hospital in Argentina. You're our only hope.

He wouldn't outright say no, which is what he did. I can't blame you guys for wanting there to be something; when valve first promised episodic content, expectations were raised. We were all made to believe that we'd have less content in more frequent updates. However, it's been 4 years. I'm not saying it won't be soon, I'm just saying the sensible thing to do is to wait just a little longer.

[QUOTE=Jaxe42;33666194]If you squint really really hard and really really really want to believe you can see a Combine Advisor interrupting the last few frames of the Wheatley transmission.

Pretty sure the cyan/red part is a regular VGA transition. Really interested on those numbers on the right of the video, though.

I still have much confidence in Valve, it took them many years for them to make the sequels for Half Life and Team Fortress. I don't think making Half Life 3 would be any different.

Has anyone made the connection of 1+1+1=3? I mean, it seemed pretty obvious to me.

[QUOTE=NuggetWarmer;33667022]Has anyone made the connection of 1+1+1=3? I mean, it seemed pretty obvious to me.[/QUOTE] No, no one on this forum can add numbers we hear together to make another number that means something to us.

[QUOTE=Neo Kabuto;33667041]No, no one on this forum can add numbers we hear together to make another number that means something to us.[/QUOTE] Just wondering because all I'm seeing is posts about dates and satellites instead of the obvious.

Wait, potentially unrelated, but Wheatley is asking for some sort of rocket, and EP2 ends with the rocket being fired into the portal... I don't know, still grasping at straws :v:

200 new posts "Oh, something must have happened at the VGA!" And then nothing. Feels bad, man. Also, what's CES?

[QUOTE=Ardosos;33667093]Also, what's CES?[/QUOTE] The Consumer Electronics Show.

[QUOTE=JumJum;33667145]Maybe the new rockets in TF2?[/QUOTE] Except those rockets crashed, were already announced as a promotion for Dr. Grordbort, and aren't even in the Half Life universe.

I feel this is a pretty accurate of what is happening again: [quote]HERE IT* STARTS AGAIN!! iDukeByrne 8 minutes ago[/quote] [quote]@iDukeByrne It begins. Guys, I want a girlfriend who likes Portal, how do? How long is the natural dev cycle for valve games? Rapeeeeeeeee Is it legal to keep a personality core in your house as a pet, like a dog? Will you suck a robot cock while dressed as a robot? Yes, I like looking at robot dicks and have always wanted to suck my own. I'm not gay though. Nigga he a robot I wonder how /valvefanboys/ would react if they were locked in a store with EP3 but no computers. I would shower myself in EP3 You are now imagining yourself shower is full of EP3 streaming itself all over your face in sticky strands Oh shit You will never get to frolic in a shower of EP3 Reality is so cruel Smellyfeetyouhave 2 minutes ago [/quote]

Well, back to hoping that it [I]might[/I] be announced at the next big games thing.
